Treatments tested in this trial
Intelligent intervention to enhance parent-child connection
BehavioralThe "Intelligent Intervention to Enhance Parent-Child Connection" support program is mainly carried out through web pages, Figma software, cloud files and official Line accounts. It can be divided into: the first stage is to provide parents with care knowledge and skills during the hospitalization of premature infants, provide parents with physical and mental support, and encourage parents to establish parent-child connections and prepare for discharge. The second stage is after discharge, continuing to provide premature infants' families with the care guidance needed to respond to the different stages of development of premature infants, including interpersonal support, sleep schedule establishment, crying comfort, premature infant nutrition and couple relationship management, etc., and continue to provide family support, answer questions and track its implementation status.
Routine care
Other interventionPremature infants receive routine care during their hospitalization, and general nursing guidance for premature infant discharge care is provided before discharge.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, PSQI
The sleep quality in the past month was measured, including seven indicators: subjective statement of sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, use of sleep aids and daytime dysfunction. Each indicator was scored between 0-3 points, and the total score ranged from 0-21 points. The higher the score, the worse the sleep quality. When the total score of sleep quality is \>5 points, it means poor sleep quality, and the total score of sleep quality is ≤5 points, it means good sleep quality.
Actigraphy and Sleep Diary measures sleep details
The Cole-Kripke algorithm was used to calculate the following data: (1) total sleep time: the actual time of falling asleep; (2) sleep efficiency: the percentage of time in bed compared to the actual sleep time; (3) sleep latency: the time from the time in bed to the time of falling asleep recorded by the actigraph; and (4) number of awakenings: the number of awakenings during a sleep cycle. The sleep log is recalled by the primary caregiver immediately after waking up every day, recording the sleep time and sleep status of the previous day, in order to understand the total sleep hours, the number of awakening hours/times at night, sleep efficiency, and whether there are any events that affect the mood for falling asleep, medication or physical discomfort, whether stimulants and alcohol are consumed, etc., and the sleep quality of the previous night and the degree of wakefulness when waking up are evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5 points.
Brief Fatigue Inventory, BFI
The scale is divided into two parts: the severity of fatigue and the degree of interference of fatigue on life. There are 9 questions in total, each with a score of 0 to 10 points. The total score is calculated as the average score of the first part plus the average score of the second part. The higher the score, the higher the degree of fatigue.
Perceived Stress Scale, PSS
This scale is used to measure the stress level in an individual's life. The original scale has 14 questions, using the Likert scoring method, with a scoring method ranging from 0 (never), 1 (occasionally), 2 (sometimes), 3 (often) to 4 (always). Questions 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 13 are reverse scored. The total score ranges from 0 to 56. The higher the score, the higher the stress level of the subject.
