Effects of Home Visiting and Maternal Mental Health on Use of the Emergency Department among Late Preterm Infants
ConclusionsFrequency of home visiting service over the first year of life is not significantly associated with reduced ED visits for infants with at‐risk attributes and born during the late preterm period. Research on how home visiting can address ED use, particularly for those with prematurity and maternal mental health conditions, may strengthen program impact and cost benefits.

Evidence‐Based Practice to Improve Outcomes for Late Preterm Infants
ABSTRACT Infants born between 34 weeks 0 days to 36 weeks 6 days gestation have been identified as late preterm infants (LPIs) and account for 70% of preterm births and 9% of all births. The rise in elective deliveries in the past decade is believed to have contributed to the number of late preterm births. An interprofessional team including labor and delivery, neonatal intensive care, and postpartum care providers collaborated to address this issue at an urban academic medical center.

A Case Report on the Anxiolytic Properties of Nitrous Oxide during Labor
ABSTRACT Widely used in Europe as a labor analgesic, nitrous oxide (N2O) is making a dramatic return in the United States. Valued for its analgesic properties, N2O also has anxiolytic characteristics. Fear and anxiety in childbirth have been associated with various negative effects, and N2O may have the potential to lessen these effects for some women. Women in the United States should have the option of using N2O during labor. (Source: Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic, and Neonatal Nursing)

Grief Intensity, Psychological Well‐Being, and the Intimate Partner Relationship in the Subsequent Pregnancy after a Perinatal Loss
ConclusionsSupport for the construct validity of the PGIS was demonstrated by its significant associations in the expected directions with pregnancy‐specific anxiety, depression symptoms, post‐traumatic stress, and the quality of the intimate partner relationship. The scale may be useful to health care providers in identifying mothers in need of follow‐up for intense grief and other clinically relevant symptoms after perinatal loss.

Establishing Breastfeeding with the Late Preterm Infant in the NICU
ConclusionsLPIs require a unique set of interventions for breastfeeding success; though they might be perceived as small, full‐term infants, these infants often have greater challenges with breastfeeding than their term counterparts. Future research should be directed at identifying and testing specific strategies that will best support this at‐risk population. Findings from this article are applicable for the LPI in the NICU as well as other care areas such as special care and transitional nurseries.

Health Care Providers’ Perspectives of Providing Culturally Competent Care in the NICU
ConclusionWithin the premise of providing family‐centered care is the concept of honoring cultural, ethnic, and socioeconomic diversity; it is imperative that culturally competent care be considered and implemented as a separate stand‐alone aspect when caring for new immigrant families.

The NICU Parent Risk Evaluation and Engagement Model and Instrument (PREEMI) for Neonates in Intensive Care Units
ABSTRACT Engagement is a fairly new concept in practice and research and is gaining the interest of federal and private regulators, clinicians, and researchers. In this article, we offer a standard definition and outline an engagement model and an instrument for early prediction and identification of low engagement in at‐risk parents of late preterm infants. The Parent Risk Evaluation and Engagement Model and Instrument (PREEMI), its theoretical underpinnings, instrument design, and practical application and future research are discussed.

The Role of Peer Support in the Development of Maternal Identity for “NICU Moms”
ConclusionPeer support and role modeling by NICU‐based breastfeeding peer counselors helped the mothers throughout every stage of their infants’ hospitalizations, from giving them hope, to helping them begin to develop maternal identity, to providing anticipatory guidance about taking their infants home. Talking points are provided for nurses who work in NICUs without dedicated peer support to help mothers establish a healthy mother/infant relationship.
