Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the level of awareness about the vaginal and cesarean deliveries of only female students attending 4th grade of Süleyman Demirel University Faculty of Medicine.
Material and Methods: In order to determine the knowledge and awareness level of the information about the normal delivery and cesarean delivery, a survey was developed by us in accordance with the literature. The survey includes the personal information form and the questions exploring knowledge and attitudes about the normal delivery and cesarean delivery. Results: 59 students who completed the gynecology and obstetrics internship (Group 1), with a mean age of 22,03 ± 2,84 and 23 students who non-completed the internship (Group 2), with a mean age of 22,44 ± 1,04 were included the study. In group 1, the rate of want to have a normal delivery in the future was 62.3% (n=38) (in the other group was 72.7%). When the students' thoughts were evaluated in terms of the most reliable delivery mode; In the group 1, this was vaginal delivery because of answer “less complicated” (83.3%; n=50), whereas in the group 2, all participants (100%; n=21) preferred vaginal delivery option (with thinking that it is healthier). The highest cause of fear in both groups was delivery pains.
Conclusion: The level of knowledge, attitude, and awareness was found to be very low generally. According to the study, it is understood that there is a need for additional training programs during the internship.
