SPOUSAL SUPPORT AND AFFECTING FACTORS IN PREGNANT WOMEN WITH HYPEREMESIS GRAVIDARUM: THE CASE OF SOUTH EASTERN ANATOLIA REGION

Öz

The objective of this study was to examine the level of spousal support and identify the factors that influence it among pregnant women who have been diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum. This descriptive study was conducted with a sample of 125 pregnant women who were hospitalized in the septic unit of a training and research hospital in a province in the Southeastern Anatolia Region between October 1, 2022, and December 30, 2022. The data were collected through face-to-face interviews using a descriptive information form and the Spousal Support Scale. The participants' mean score on the Spousal Support Scale was 58.87±12.06 at a moderate level. The levels of spousal support of the participants differed significantly according to socio-demographics (age, education, employment status, perceived economic status, most spoken language, spouse’s age, spouse’s educational status and spouse’s employment status), marital (age at first marriage, duration of marriage, marriage type), fertility (gravidity, number of living children, planning of the current pregnancy) characteristics and whether the marriage was affected by hyperemesis gravidarum (p<.005). To increase the level of spousal support while providing health services to pregnant women diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum, importance and priority should be given to pregnant women with the determined characteristics and their spouses in line with the risk approach.

HİPEREMEZİS GRAVİDARUMLU GEBELERDE EŞ DESTEĞİ VE ETKİLEYEN FAKTÖRLER: GÜNEYDOĞU ANADOLU BÖLGESİ ÖRNEĞİ

Öz

Bu araştırmanın amacı hiperemezis gravidarum tanısı alan gebelerde eş desteği ve etkileyen faktörlerin incelenmesidir. Tanımlayıcı tipteki bu çalışma, 1 Ekim 2022-30 Aralık 2022 tarihleri arasında Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi'ndeki bir ilde bulunan eğitim ve araştırma hastanesinin septik ünitesinde yatan 125 gebe kadın ile yürütüldü. Veriler, tanımlayıcı bilgi formu ve Eş Destek Ölçeği kullanılarak yüz yüze görüşme yoluyla toplandı. Katılımcıların Eş Destek Ölçeği puan ortalaması 58.87±12.06 olarak orta seviyedeydi. Katılımcıların eş desteği düzeyleri, sosyo-demografik (yaş, eğitim düzeyi, çalışma durumu, algılanan gelir durumu, en çok konuşulan dil, eşin yaşı, eşin eğitim durumu ve çalışma durumu), evlilik (ilk evlilik yaşı, evlilik süresi, evlenme şekli), doğurganlık (toplam gebelik sayısı, yaşayan çocuk sayısı, gebeliğin planlanma durumu) özelliklerine ve hiperemezis gravidarum nedeniyle evliliğin etkilenme durumuna göre anlamlı şekilde farklılık gösterdi (p<.005). Hiperemezis gravidarum tanısı alan gebelere sağlık hizmetleri sunulurken eş desteği düzeyinin artırılması için belirlenen özelliklere sahip gebelere ve eşlerine risk yaklaşımı doğrultusunda önem ve öncelik verilmelidir.
