It consisted of two intervention groups in the same program, which was differentiated only regarding location: one was performed at the hospital and the other at home. Intervention centered on the child-parent dyad and clinical consultations. Prior to hospital discharge, the intervention was guided by principles of the synchronous-active Theory and family-centered care. After discharge, the theory of biosocial systems was used. |
