Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the acceptability, feasibility and preliminary effects a GP\_Posit intervention. GP\_Posit is an intervention where mothers will learn how to participated in their preterm infant's care and positioning while being guided by a nurse. Preliminary effects will be estimated on maternal sensitivity, stress and anxiety as well as preterm infant's neurodevelopment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

GP_Posit

Participants allocated to this arm will receive the GP\_Posit intervention.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

GP_Posit

Intervention Type OTHER

Mother-infant dyads allocated to this arm will receive the GP\_Posit intervention. The intervention consists of a guided participation intervention to positioning. Mothers will meet with the intervention nurse twice a week for the two first weeks after birth and then one a week until the infant will reach 35 weeks of gestational age. During these encounters, mothers will learn how to interpret their infant's stress and stability cues and participate in his/her care and positioning while being guided by the intervention nurse.

Control

Participants in the control arm will receive usual care.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
