Résumé

To establish expert consensus on key principles for therapist-supported interventions supporting infants born preterm and their families during the transition from neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to home in the USA. A diverse, interdisciplinary panel of experts evaluated the use of key intervention principles. A modified Delphi technique was used to seek opinions from independent and relevant interdisciplinary experts on the clarity of terminology, efficacy, and feasibility of implementing these intervention principles during the NICU-to-home transition. After our team consensus, one round of surveys was required to reach expert consensus. Twenty-four experts, representing a variety of disciplines, responded to the survey. Results showed strong consensus on four key therapist-supported interventions: building caregiver-child relationships; optimizing infant development; education and knowledge sharing; and enriched environments. This research provides valuable insights into key therapist-supported interventions that may be used during the NICU-to-home transition to address the needs of high-risk infants and the well-being of their families. Findings will inform the development of streamlined and effective interventions, improving child and family outcomes during this critical transition period.
