Interaction effects of parent NICU stress and mFICare intervention on PTSD symptoms (a) and depression (b) after NICU discharge. Dotted lines indicate the 95% confidence interval for each group. a. Mothers in the mFICare group with higher levels of NICU-related stress had lower post-discharge PPQ scores than similarly stressed mothers in the FCC group; mothers with lower levels of NICU-related stress had relatively few PTSD symptoms, regardless of intervention group (p = .012). b. A similar interaction pattern was found for maternal depression (EPDS) scores but did not reach statistical significance (p = .052)
