Midwifery is a health discipline that integrates theory and practice. Models and theories establish a scientific perspective to midwifery and guide clinical work practice. It is also a reference point that distinguishes midwifery from other health professions.
Midwifery Model of Woman-Centred Childbirth Care (MiMo), one of the midwifery models that includes a woman-centred care approach, has been developed based on the synthesis of qualitative research findings on childbirth experiences of women and midwives, in Swedish and Icelandic birth settings.
This review has been carried out to examine the basic concepts of MiMo. It includes five intertwined themes, three main (basic) and two in the background. The three central intertwined themes are a reciprocal relationship; a birthing atmosphere and grounded knowledge. The remaining two themes are the cultural context (with hindering and promoting norms for a midwifery approach and woman-centred care); and the balancing act of the midwife. The experiences and opinions of health professionals about the application of the model in a hospital labor ward in Sweden have been examined and it has been concluded that the model could be useful to enhance midwifery practice and that it would be interesting to apply MiMo in other cultural contexts. In Turkey as a developed country, maternity care needs to be based woman-centred approach. During pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum using a midwifery model or theory could increase the quality of maternity care services. In addition, midwives can strengthen their professional autonomy in this way.

Ebelik Uygulamaları İçin Bir Deniz Feneri: Kadın Merkezli Bakım Modeli

Öz

Ebelik teori ve pratiğin bütünleştiği bir sağlık disiplinidir. Modeller ve teoriler, ebelik için bilimsel bir bakış açısı oluşturur ve klinik uygulamalara rehberlik eder. Aynı zamanda ebeliği diğer sağlık mesleklerinden ayıran bir referans noktasıdır.
Kadın merkezli bakım yaklaşımını içeren ebelik modellerinden biri olan Doğumda Kadın Merkezli Ebelik Bakım Modeli (MiMo); İsveç ve İzlanda’da kadınların ve ebelerin doğum deneyimlerine ilişkin nitel araştırma bulgularının sentezine dayalı olarak geliştirilmiştir.
Bu derleme, MiMo'nun temel kavramlarını incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Üç ana (temel) ve iki arka plan olmak üzere iç içe geçen beş tema içerir. İç içe geçen üç merkezi tema; karşılıklı ilişki, doğum ortamı ve temellendirilmiş (gömülü) bilgidir. Kalan iki tema kültürel bağlam (ebelik yaklaşımı ve kadın merkezli bakım için engelleyici ve teşvik edici normlarla birlikte); ve ebenin dengeleme eylemleridir. Modelin İsveç'te bir hastanenin doğum ünitesinde uygulanmasına ilişkin sağlık profesyonellerinin deneyimleri ve görüşleri incelenmiş ve modelin ebelik uygulamasını geliştirmek için faydalı olabileceği ve MiMo'nun diğer kültürel alanlarda da uygulanmasının ilginç olacağı sonucuna varılmıştır. Gelişmiş bir ülke olarak Türkiye'de annelik bakım ve hizmetlerinin kadın merkezli olması gereklidir. Gebelik, doğum ve doğum sonrası dönemde ebelik modeli veya teorisinin kullanılması, doğuma ilişkin hizmetlerin kalitesini artırabilir. Ayrıca ebeler mesleki özerkliklerini model kullanımı yoluyla güçlendirebilirler.
