This study aims to investigate whether posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms exist &gt;1 year after neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) experience and whether PTSD symptomatology differs across parents of infants of different gestational age categories. Methods. A survey was given to parents at routine NICU follow-up visits. Parents completed the PTSD CheckList\u2013Civilian (PCL-C), a standardized scale comprising 17 key symptoms of PTSD. Parents also rated how traumatic their birth experience, first day in the NICU, and first week in the NICU were from \u201cNot Traumatic at All\u201d to \u201cMost Traumatic.\u201d Fisher\u2019s exact test was used to compare PCL-C responses across gestational age categories (Extremely Preterm, Very Preterm, Moderate to Late preterm, and Full Term). Results. Eighty parents participated. In total, 15% of parents had \u201cModerate to High Severity\u201d PTSD symptoms. There were no statistical differences in PTSD prevalence between parents of children &lt;1 year old and parents of children &gt;1 year old ( P = .51). There was also no statistical difference in prevalence of \u201cModerate to High Severity\u201d level of PTSD symptoms across gestational age ( P = .16). Overall, 38% of parents rated at least one experience as \u201cMost traumatic.\u201d Conclusion. A high percentage of parents who had a recent NICU experience and parents who had a NICU experience more than a year ago demonstrated PTSD symptoms. In light of these results, many parents of NICU graduates\u2014both mothers and fathers\u2014would benefit from access to long-term counseling
