Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

保育器で過ごす子どもと母親は、適切なアセスメントを受けることで、母子の状況により適した看護援助を受けることができ、母親の抱える複雑な思いや子どもとの未来を踏まえ子どもとの心理的距離を縮めていくことで、愛着形成を分離がもたらす不安や退院後の育児への不安の軽減にもつながると考える。
また、NICU看護師は、保育器の存在を再認識し、子どもが保育器で過ごすことが母親にもたらす影響を考え、母親の言動や行動、思いや子どもの状況や成長発達をより意識することから、アセスメント能力向上といった教育的意義も期待できると考える。
