Abstract

Babywearing is the practice of carrying an infant in a baby carrier, which may provide an inexpensive, nonpharmacological intervention for the parent-infant dyads to handle mental stressors, such as pain and anxiety, especially among vulnerable infants. This study investigated the influence of babywearing on parent-infant autonomic coregulation based on the changes in the HR of mother-infant and father-infant dyads for infants with neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). Guided by the Calming Cycle Theory as the framework, the correlation between parent HR and infant HR and the difference in the mother-infant dyad (n = 17) compared to the father-infant dyad (n = 8) were examined. Although only the mother-infant HRs reached statistical significance during babywearing (

=.52, p = .03), both parent-infant dyads had strong correlations during babywearing (compared to pre- and post-babywearing conditions), indicating that babywearing, for parents and their infants with NAS, may influence autonomic coregulation.

婴儿和父母在婴儿穿戴过程中的心率：自律神经调节的证据

婴儿背带是一种用婴儿背带携带婴儿的做法，它可以为父母-婴儿二人组提供一种廉价的非药物干预措施，以应对疼痛和焦虑等精神压力，尤其是对脆弱的婴儿而言。本研究根据新生儿禁欲综合征（NAS）婴儿的母婴和父婴二人组心率的变化，研究了婴儿背带对父母-婴儿自律神经核心调节的影响。以平静循环理论为框架，研究了父母心率与婴儿心率之间的相关性，以及母婴组合（17 人）与父婴组合（8 人）之间的差异。虽然只有母婴心率在婴儿穿戴期间达到了统计学意义（r̅ =.52，p = .03），但父母-婴儿二人组在婴儿穿戴期间（与婴儿穿戴前和穿戴后的情况相比）都有很强的相关性，这表明婴儿穿戴对患有 NAS 的父母及其婴儿可能会影响自律神经调节。

期刊介绍： Infant Behavior & Development publishes empirical (fundamental and clinical), theoretical, methodological and review papers. Brief reports dealing with behavioral development during infancy (up to 3 years) will also be considered. Papers of an inter- and multidisciplinary nature, for example neuroscience, non-linear dynamics and modelling approaches, are particularly encouraged. Areas covered by the journal include cognitive development, emotional development, perception, perception-action coupling, motor development and socialisation.
