    Journal: Matern Child Nurs J; 1987; 16(1):13-27. PubMed ID: 3649522.
    Abstract:
    Birth of a child who is critically ill because of prematurity, perinatal problems, or congenital defects precipitates a crisis for the parents. Three major issues which parents must resolve in order to adapt successfully to the crisis are identified and discussed. Phases of the adaptive process are delineated; strategies which health care professionals can utilize to facilitate the parents' adaptation are proposed.
