Summary

In Taiwan, according to the birth notification statistics of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. 164,496 newborns were born in 2020, with preterm births accounting for about 11.58%.Most preterm infants need to be hospitalized for highly specialized care, resulting in the separation of preterm infants from their parents after birth, which may have a negative impact on the healthy attachment development between parents and preterm infants. Moreover, due to the vulnerability of preterm infants, parents often lack the confidence to take care of them.
