Traditional and complementary medicine practices are among the commonly used practices to relieve complaints during pregnancy. The prevalence of pregnant women applying to traditional and complementary practices varies between 1-87%. Some important associations do not recommend the use of herbal products during pregnancy because of the potential for teratogenic effects. The most preferred methods for nausea and vomiting during pregnancy are acupuncture, ginger, and hypnosis. Ayurvedic medicine for sleep problems, chamomile tea, lavender oil, music therapy, and relaxation exercises, and aromatherapy are the most preferred ones for the treatment of low back, back, and pelvic pain. In the literature, there are studies that reveal the effects of traditional complementary medicine practices by midwives in eliminating the discomforts experienced during pregnancy. Increasing the awareness of midwives on traditional and complementary medicine practices and their consultancy role in this regard is very important. In this context, this review has been prepared to determine the traditional and complementary medicine practices and the roles of midwifery in pregnancy.

Gebelik Döneminde Geleneksel ve Tamamlayıcı Tıp Uygulamaları ve Ebelerin Rolleri

Öz

Geleneksel ve Tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamaları, gebelik sırasında yakınmaları gidermek için sıklıkla başvurulan yöntemler arasında yer almaktadır. Dünya genelinde gebelerin geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı yöntemlere başvurma sıklığı %1-87 arasında değişmektedir. Gebelikte bitkisel ürünlerin kullanımı teratojenik etki gösterebilmesi nedeniyle bazı önemli dernekler tarafından önerilmese de gebelikte bitkisel yöntemler sıklıkla tercih edilmektedir. Gebelikte yaşanan bulantı-kusma için en çok tercih edilen yöntemler akupunktur, zencefil ve hipnozdur. Uyku problemleri için ayurveda tıbbı, papatya çayı, lavanta yağı, müzik terapisi ve gevşeme egzersizleri, bel, sırt ve pelvik ağrı yönetiminde en çok aromaterapi tercih edilmektedir. Gebelikte hissedilen yorgunluk, yoga, egzersiz ve ginseng ile stres, anksiyete ise müzik terapisi ve aromaterapi ile giderilebilmektedir. Literatürde gebelikte yaşanan rahatsızlıkların giderilmesinde ebeler tarafından, geleneksel tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamalarının etkisinin ortaya konulduğu çalışmalar yer almaktadır. Ebelerin geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamalarına yönelik farkındalıklarının arttırılması ve bu konudaki danışmanlık rolleri oldukça önemlidir. Bu derleme, gebelik döneminde yapılan geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamaları ve bu konuda ebelerin rollerini belirtmek amacıyla hazırlanmıştır.
