Alta hospitalar do recém-nascido prematuro: experiência do pai

Objective: To describe the father’s experience with his premature child discharge of the Neonatal Intensive-Care Unit and to point out interventions to promote this experience. Method: Qualitative research with eight fathers, adopting the Symbolic Interactionism as theoretical reference and thematic narrative research as methodological frame. Results: The analysis of data has allowed us to describe the experience of the father from three thematic units: “fatherhood boundaries”, “high responsibility for the child” and “social network and support”. Conclusion: The father feels insecure with the idea of taking care of his child at home because of the lack of professional support and the initial contact with the child in the Neonatal Intensive-Care Unit.

Its theoretical framework was the symbolic interactionism and its methodological framework was qualitative content analysis. Nine mothers were interviewed. Results were described using three categories: ‘professional relationships and breastfeeding’, ‘unique traits of breastfeeding preterm infants’ and ‘responsibilities for nourishing infants’. Results show that mixed feeding is how mothers feed their preterm infants at home, given the fact that they are insecure and uncertain that their milk is enough. Health workers contribute to that understanding, and health practices must be transformed. DESCRIPTORS: Breast feeding infantile. Premature. Patient discharge.
