BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Parents endure significant stress when their newborns require surgery while in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Our study aims to explore the surgical NICU experience from the parents' perspective and identify areas that may improve this experience. A secondary objective was to integrate their feedback to refine the implementation strategy of the neonatal enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS
METHODS METHODS
In December 2019, five surgical NICU parents participated in a focus group. Conversation surrounded parents' perspectives and experiences of the surgical NICU. Inductive analysis was performed to identify data, themes, and concepts that emerged from the discussion.
RESULTS RESULTS
Participants identified four major interrelated themes that impacted the surgical parents' NICU experience. These themes include (1) parental state, both physical and emotional, (2) the altered parental caregiver role which necessitates identifying alternative meaningful parental experiences, (3) the care team dynamic, incorporating consistency and effective communication, and (4) the discharge process which may be significantly eased through graduated, hands-on training.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Key elements of the neonatal ERAS
