Amaç: Doğal ve güvenli hamilelik geçirmek ve doğum yapmak isteyen kadınlar geleneksel, tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerini tercih etmektedirler. Ayrıca Covid-19 pandemisi döneminde virüsten korunmak için birçok ülkede tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedaviler önerilmiş ve kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada bir aile sağlığı merkezine kontrol (takip) için gelen gebelerin Covid-19 pandemisinde geleneksel, tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerini (TAT) kullanım durumları incelenmiştir.
Yöntem: Çalışma tanımlayıcı tiptedir. Aile sağlığı merkezine kontrol için gelen toplam 162 gebe çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Araştırmada üç bölümden ve 43 sorudan oluşan anket formu kullanılmıştır. Anket formları yüz yüze görüşülerek doldurulmuştur.
Bulgular: En çok kullanılan tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerinin dua, masaj, bitkisel tedavi ve vitamin takviyesi olduğu tespit edildi. Ayrıca evden dışarı çıkmamak, sirke ile su içmek veya gargara yapmak, klorlu çamaşır suyu ile temizlik yapmak korunma amaçlı yapılan diğer davranışlardır.
Sonuç: Gebe kadınların GETAT yöntemlerinden en çok bitkisel tedavileri, vitamin desteği, hidroterapi, akupunktur, kupa, masaj, hacamat, dua, sülük uygulaması, hipnoz, meditasyon ve müzik terapi uygulamalarını bildikleri belirlenmiştir. Gebe kadınların Covid-19 sürecinde en çok dua, masaj, vitamin desteği ve bitkisel tedavi uygulamalarını kullandığı görülmektedir.
