Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

Thirteen caregivers (12 parents and 1 grandparent) completed interviews and experienced NICU stays with 10 infants (8 singletons and 1 set of twins). Although we aimed to recruit multiple types of caregivers (ie, parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles) in this study, only 1 nonparent caregiver was successfully recruited.

Parental Perceptions of Priorities and Features for a Mobile App to Promote Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors in Preschool Children: Mixed Methods Evaluation

Parental Perceptions of Priorities and Features for a Mobile App to Promote Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors in Preschool Children: Mixed Methods Evaluation

In light of limited existing evidence, we sought to design a mobile app geared toward parents of preschool-aged (2- to 5-year-old) children, integrating guided goal setting across the domains of diet, physical activity, media use, and sleep. During the formative stage of app development, we sought to integrate feedback from parents with children in our target age range in order to assess major areas of interest and ways the app could best meet their needs.

Implementing Diabetes Distress Screening in a Pediatric Endocrinology Clinic Using a Digital Health Platform: Quantitative Secondary Data Analysis

Implementing Diabetes Distress Screening in a Pediatric Endocrinology Clinic Using a Digital Health Platform: Quantitative Secondary Data Analysis

In children aged 8‐12 years, as many as 40% of youth and 61% of their parents or caregivers experience at least some DD [7]. Notably, DD is occurring at higher rates, on average, than depression in pediatric populations with diabetes [8,9]. Increased levels of DD relate to deficits in diabetes self-management behaviors, increased glycated hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c), and negative impacts on mental health and well-being [4,6].

Understanding Individual Differences in Happiness Sources and Implications for Health Technology Design: Exploratory Analysis of an Open Dataset

Understanding Individual Differences in Happiness Sources and Implications for Health Technology Design: Exploratory Analysis of an Open Dataset

Parents placed more discussion around the well-being of their families and children, whereas nonparents placed their emphasis on friends, games, eating out, pets, and watching television [13]. Unmarried people focused mostly on dating, friendship, food, and exercise as sources of happiness, whereas married people focused mainly on children and family [13]. Age brackets also differed in how they expressed happiness [13].

Pediatric Sleep Quality and Parental Stress in Neuromuscular Disorders: Descriptive Analytical Study

Pediatric Sleep Quality and Parental Stress in Neuromuscular Disorders: Descriptive Analytical Study

According to research, sleep disorders in children can result in sleep problems for their parents. When children struggle to fall asleep, their parents also have difficulty sleeping, which can cause stress and lead to missed workdays [15]. In a recent study, the mental health of parents of a child with a NMD was assessed using the Psychological Adaptation Scale questionnaire, which revealed high levels of mental health problems among parents [16].

Gender-Inclusive Language in Public-Facing Labor and Delivery Web Pages in the New York Tristate Area: Cross-Sectional Study

Gender-Inclusive Language in Public-Facing Labor and Delivery Web Pages in the New York Tristate Area: Cross-Sectional Study

Hospitals might therefore attract pregnant LGBTQIA+ parents by crafting more inclusive obstetrical web pages. These pages could signal inclusivity by explicitly referencing LGBTQIA+ care or by avoiding gender-exclusive language like “mother and baby,” “mom,” or presumptive she/her pronouns for parents.
