Determinatıon of baby-related concern of loss and subcutaneous practice skills in pregnants

Abstract

Aim: The study was planned to determine pregnant women’s concerns abouttheir baby’s health and their subcutaneous injection skills. Method: The measurement tools were applied by the researchers through face-to-face interviews during the pregnant women’s visit to the clinic. Results: Regarding subcutaneous injection, more than half of the pregnant women expressed concerns that their baby might experience organ problems or developmental issues related to intelligence , and almost all of them reported fear of loosing their baby. When the pregnant women's ability to perform subcutaneous injection correctly was examined, it was determined that the most common mistakes were made at the stage of injecting into the tissue. Conclusion: It is suggested that providing training through videos and demonstrations may help ensure proper application and reduce application-related concerns.

Gebelerde bebeğe ilişkin kayıp korkusu ve SC uygulama becerilerinin belirlenmesi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, subkütan enjeksiyon uygulayan hamile kadınların bebek sağlık konusundaki endişelerini ve enjeksiyon uygulama becerilerini belirlemek amacıyla planlandı. Yöntem: Ölçme araçları, hamile kadınların kliniğe başvurusu sırasında yüz yüze görüşme yöntemiyle araştırmacılar tarafından uygulandı. Bulgular: Gebelerin yarısından fazlası subkütan enjeksiyon nedeniyle bebeklerinin organlarında ve zekâsında problem olacağı endişesi taşırken, neredeyse tamamı da bebeklerini kaybetme korkusu yaşamaktaydı. Gebelerin subkütan enjeksiyonu doğru bir şekilde yapabilme yetenekleri incelendiğinde ise en sık yapılan hataların dokuya enjeksiyon aşamasında meydana geldiği belirlendi. Sonuç: Video ve gösterim yoluyla eğitim verilmesinin doğru uygulamayı sağladığı ve uygulamaya dair endişeleri azalttığı düşünülmektedir.
