Abstract：Obj ective:To observe the effect of developmental care model for reducing incidence of apnea in preterm children.Methods:A total of 246 ca-ses of preterm children were randomly divided into observation group and control group with random number table,123 cases in each.The preterm children in control group received routine care of preterm children,preterm children in observation group received conventional care plus developmen-tal care nursing,then the hospital stay,daily weight gain and the incidence of apnea were compared in preterm children between both groups.Results:Hospital days of preterm children in observation group was less than that in control group,the incidence of apnea was lower than that of control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclu-sion:The implementation of developmental care model for preterm children can significantly reduce the incidence of apnea.
