In addition, the mean communication performance of the nurses was lower than the mean satisfaction of mothers. Comparing the dimensions of satisfaction, satisfaction with hospital care had lower average than other dimensions. Communication performance had no significant relationship with the satisfaction dimensions and P > 0. 05 but it had a significant relationship with total satisfaction (P = 0. 001). Conclusions: Concerning the importance of the nurses’ position, communication, educational and caring skills should be further strengthening to enhance the satisfaction of mothers. Also according to the results obtained from this research, it appears that mothers require better relationship with nurses based on the cause of the hospitalization of their children.

The infants’ physiological responses (including the percent of arterial blood oxygen saturation, respiration and heart rate) were examined a minute before the suction of endotracheal systems as baseline data and after the suction it was measured every five minutes to thirty minutes. The statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS 23. Results: The results showed that a mother's lullaby in intubated preterm infants who were suctioned, not only was effective on fast return of breathing changes and heart rate after the suction, but also it reduced respiratory rate and heart rate.
