The premature infants in control group only implemented routine developmental support care.The premature infants in the intervention group was on the basis of routine developmental support care, 2 hours per day of kangaroo mother care was performed from the 2nd day incharge to discharge.Parental Stress Scale: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Parenting Stress Index-Short Form was performed using the 2nd day and the 14th day of hospitalization, and the two groups of premature mothers were evaluated for anxiety and parenting stress. Results:There were no significant differences in the scores of PSS: NICU((3.65±0.91) vs (3.63±0.91)) and PSI-SF((90.32±8.95) vs (90.12±7.17))(both P>0.05) between the two groups on the 2nd day of hospitalization (before intervention). On the 14th day of hospitalization (after intervention), the total scores ((2.57±0.80) vs (3.47±0.93))and each dimension scores of PSS: NICU in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group (first part (2.41±0.78) vs (3.81±0.73), second part (2.61±0.71) vs (3.14±0.83), third part (2.75±0.86) vs (3.57±1.06), fourth part(2.49±0.80) vs (3.35±0.94))( P<0.01). In addition, the total score of PSI-SF((79.09±8.02) vs (89.46±8.74)), parenting Distress((32.32±9.48) vs (37.15±9.67)), Parent-Child Dysfunctional Interaction((24.26±5.07) vs (27.34±5.26)), and Difficult Child scores((22.51±4.88) vs (24.97±5.05)) in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group( P<0.01).
