Digital Storytelling in the NICU
Preliminary Pilot Study of Digital Storytelling in the NICU
Study Overview
Detailed Description
Specific aims are:
(1) To determine the feasibility of a legacy intervention for NICU parents; and (2) to determine the feasibility of psychosocial instruments for NICU parents. We will recruit parents (N = 12) of 6 infants in the NICU who have received a palliative care consultation and expected to die by 1 year of age based on provider report. We will use a one-group pre- and post-test design. The intervention will be delivered by the PI or trained study staff conducting video-taped interviews with parents in private NICU rooms to create a digital story about their infant. The videographer will use the video and music selected by parents to create a digital story about the infant. The final digital story is provided to parents on a DVD or unlisted (private) YouTube link to keep. Parents will complete electronic psychosocial measures at enrollment (baseline/pre-intervention) and post-intervention.
