Data collection was done from July to December 2024. Semi\u2010structured one\u2010on\u2010one interviews were conducted with the parents (fathers or mothers) until data saturation.

It enabled them to gain valuable information and offered them a space where they felt understood. At the same time, they expressed feelings of guilt and isolation, as the caregiving demands led to limited capacity to cater to or interact with other loved ones. Additional challenges parents faced included transitioning between types of feeding tubes and insufficient support from healthcare professionals.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Trial and Protocol Registration<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Ethical approval was obtained from the National Health Group Domain Specific Review Board (DSRB 2024\/00064) on 8 May 2024.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Reporting Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study followed the reporting guidelines outlined by the COnsolidated criteria for REporting Qualitative (COREQ) research checklist.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study did not include patient or public involvement in its design, conduct, or reporting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jan.70209","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,6]],"date-time":"2025-09-06T05:00:06Z","timestamp":1757134806000},"page":"6311-6320","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Grief, Uncertainty and Community: A Qualitative Study on Parental Experiences of Paediatric Feeding Disorders and Feeding Tube Use in Singapore"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"82","author":[{"given":"Sydney Xi Ning","family":"Koh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore  Singapore Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marion Margaret","family":"Aw","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Khoo Teck Puat\u2010National University Children's Medical Institute, Department of Paediatrics National University Health Systems  Singapore Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jing Shi","family":"Chua","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore  Singapore Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jamie Qiao Xin","family":"Ng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore  Singapore Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nicholas Beng Hui","family":"Ng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatrics, Khoo Teck Puat\u2010National University Children's Medical Institute National University Health Systems  Singapore Singapore"},{"name":"Department of Paediatrics, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine National University of Singapore  Singapore Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5583-2814","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shefaly","family":"Shorey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore  Singapore Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,5]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","first-page":"9","article-title":"Review of Constructivism and Social Constructivism","volume":"1","author":"Amineh R.
