The present study aimed to codify the principles of parental mental health in the NICU.Methods

In the second step, the principles were edited using the Delphi method based on the opinion of experts (physicians, faculty members, and health policymakers). Final principles of parental mental health in the NICU were codified.Results
In total, four general principles of holistic care, relationship with parents in the NICU, special care for establishing communication with families in the NICU, and principles of infants and family care were obtained.Conclusion
