Yenidoğan Taraması ve Annenin Kendine Güveni: Bilgi, Tutum ve Bakım Verme Etkileşimi

Abstract

Amaç: Tanımlayıcı ve ilişki arayıcı tipteki bu çalışmada, yeni doğum yapmış annelerin yenidoğan taramaları hakkındaki bilgi ve tutumları ile özgüvenlerini etkileyen faktörlerin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma 200 kişi ile yürütülmüştür. Veri toplama araçları olarak "Kişisel Bilgi Formu", "Yenidoğan Taramaları Hakkında Anne Tutum ve Bilgi Anketi" ve "Pharis Özgüven Ölçeği" kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Türkiye'de yıllık toplam doğurganlık hızının en yüksek olduğu ildeki bir hastanenin Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Kliniğinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan annelerin %65,5'i daha önce Yenidoğan Tarama Programı hakkında bilgi sahibi olmayıp, %70,5'i daha önce Yenidoğan Tarama Programı hakkında bilgi almamıştı. Korelasyon analizi sonuçları, annelerin Yenidoğan Taramaları Hakkında Anne Tutum ve Bilgi Anketi ile Pharis Özgüven Ölçeği'nden aldıkları puanlar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ve negatif bir ilişki olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, katılımcı annelerin yenidoğan taraması konusunda bilgi eksikliği bulunmaktadır. Annelerin yenidoğan taramasına ilişkin bilgi düzeyleri arttıkça ve yenidoğan taramasına ilişkin daha olumlu tutumlar sergiledikçe, bebek bakımına ilişkin özgüven düzeyleri de artmaktadır.

Newborn Screening and Maternal Self-Confidence: The Interplay of Knowledge, Attitude and Caregiving

Abstract

Objective: This descriptive and relationship-seeking type study was aimed at investigating the knowledge and attitudes of mothers who have just given birth about newborn screening and the factors affecting their self-confidence. Methods: The study was carried out with 200 individuals. Tools used to collect the data were the "Personal Information Form", "Maternal Knowledge and Attitudes Scale About Newborn Screening" and the "Pharis Self-Confidence Scale". The study was conducted at the Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic of a hospital in a province with the highest annual total fertility rate in Turkey. Results: Of the mothers participating in the study 65.5% had no prior knowledge of the Neonatal Screening Program, and 70.5% had not received any information about the program beforehand. Correlation analysis revealed a weak but statistically significant negative correlation between the Maternal Knowledge and Attitudes Scale About Newborn Screening scores and the Pharis Self-Confidence Scale scores (r=−0.263, p<.05), indicating that mothers with greater knowledge and more positive attitudes toward newborn screening were associated with slightly higher levels of self-confidence in infant care. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, the participating mothers lacked knowledge about newborn screening. Mothers with greater knowledge and more positive attitudes toward newborn screening were associated with slightly higher levels of self-confidence in infant care.
