Trial Registration clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01926080.191-200https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC4382412biostudies-literatureUnknown39(1-5)This study tested the effect of a neonatal-bereavement-support DVD on parental grief after their baby's death in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit compared with standard bereavement care (controls). Following a neonatal death, the authors measured grief change from a 3- to 12-month follow-up using a mixed-effects model. Intent-to-treat analysis was not significant, but only 18 parents selectively watched the DVD. Thus, we subsequently compared DVD viewers with DVD nonviewers and controls. DVD viewers reported higher grief at 3-month interviews compared with DVD nonviewers and controls. Higher grief at 3 months was negatively correlated with social support and spiritual/religious beliefs. These findings have implications for neonatal-bereavement care.Death studiesImpact of a Neonatal-Bereavement-Support DVD on Parental Grief: A Randomized Controlled Trial.PMC4382412P30 CA091842Jeffe DBRosenbaum JLYan YSmith JRAbram NfalseImpact of a Neonatal-Bereavement-Support DVD on Parental Grief: A Randomized Controlled Trial.This study tested the effect of a neonatal-bereavement-support DVD on parental grief after their baby's death in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit compared with standard bereavement care (controls).
