Abstract

İnternet ve sosyal medya kullanımı dünya çapında olduğu gibi ülkemizde de giderek yaygınlaşmaktadır. Dünya nüfusunun %59.5’i, ülkemizin ise %79’u internet kullanıcısıdır. Ülkemizde internet ve sosyal medya kullanım oranı dünya ortalamasının üzerinde seyretmektedir. Yapılan çalışmalarda sağlık bilgisine ulaşmak için en sık kullanılan kaynağın internet olduğu belirlenmiştir. Kullanıcılar gizlilik, kolay ve hızlı ulaşım gibi nedenlere internet ve sosyal medyadan sağlık bilgisi aramaktadır. Kadınlar erkeklerden daha fazla oranda internetten sağlık bilgisi aramaktadır. Gebelik sürecinde bilgi ihtiyacı artan gebelerin hem interneti hem de sosyal medyayı sıkça kullandıkları çalışmalar ile gösterilmiştir. Gebeler internette doğum süreci, doğum şekilleri, fetal gelişim, yenidoğan bakımı, emzirme, gebelikte meydana gelen fizyolojik değişimler gibi konularda bilgi aramaktadır. Gebeler internet ortamlarından aldıkları bilgileri sağlık profesyonelleri ile paylaşmamaktadır. Bu durum gebelerin internet ve sosyal medyanın sebep olduğu, yanlış, eksik veya fazla bilgi ve mahremiyet kaybı gibi konular açısından risk altında olduğunu ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmalar internet ve sosyal medya kullanımı sonucunda gebelerin, doğum korkularının arttığını, doğum deneyimini negatif algıladıklarını ve yanlış kararlar aldığını göstermiştir. Öte yandan internet ve sosyal medya, gebeler tarafından sosyal destek olarak görülmesi nedeniyle olumlu etkilere de sahiptir. İnternet ve sosyal medya kullanımı prenatal bağlanmada olumlu etki gösterebilmektedir. Gebelerin sağlık profesyonelleri tarafından yeterli bilgilendirilmesi ve güvenilir online ortamlara yönlendirilmeleri, yanlış bilgiler edinilmesini engelleyebilir. Aynı zamanda günümüz çağında sağlık profesyonellerinin teknolojik sağlık müdahaleleri oluşturmada da görev alması gerekli olmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı gebe kadınların, internet ve sosyal medya kullanımının ve buralardan aldıkları bilgilerden nasıl etkilendiğinin incelenmesidir.

How Does the Use of the Internet and Social Media Affect Pregnant Women?

Abstract

The usage of the internet and social media is increasing in our country and worldwide. The internet is used by 59.5% of the world's population and 79% of our country. The rates of internet and social media use in our country are higher than the global average. According to the studies, internet is the most utilized source for accessing health information. Internet and social media are used for privacy, expeditious and simple access. According to the studies, women seek health information from the internet more than men. Pregnant women frequently use both the internet and social media. Pregnant women search for birth process, delivery types, fetal development, newborn care, breastfeeding, physiological changes. Pregnant women do not discuss with healthcare professionals the information received by internet. This circumstance demonstrates that pregnant women are vulnerable to incorrect, inaccurate, or excessive information, and loss of privacy caused by the internet and social media. According to studies, using the internet and social media during pregnancy increases childbirth fear, negatively impacts birth experience, and caused incorrect decisions. The internet and social media are seen as social support by pregnant women and have positive effects on prenatal attachment. Receiving sufficient information from healthcare professionals and orient pregnant women to reliable online environments may prevent misinformation. At the same time, healthcare professionals must create technological health interventions. The review aims to examine the use of the internet and social media among pregnant women and how they have been affected by information on it.
