DSÖ Tavsiyeleri Perspektifinde Pandemi Sürecinde Emzirme Öz Yeterliliğinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, pandemi sırasında emziren kadınların DSÖ emzirme önerilerini bilmelerinin ve uygulamalarının emzirme öz yeterlilikleri üzerindeki etkisini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmanın örneklemi 382 kadından oluşmaktadır. Veriler 'Hasta Tanıtım Formu', 'Emzirme Öz Yeterlilik Ölçeği (EÖYÖ)' ve 'Covid-19 Sürecinde Emzirme Bilgi ve Davranış Formu' kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Katılımcıların doğum sonrası emzirme öz-yeterlilik ölçeği puan ortalaması 54.97±10.14 olarak belirlenmiştir. Katılımcıların %31,7'si pandemi döneminin emzirme eylemini olumsuz etkilediğini belirtmiştir. Kadınların %59,2'sinin pandemi sürecine özgü DSÖ Covid-19 emzirme önerileri doğrultusunda bilgilendirilmediği tespit edildi. Bu çalışmada, Covid-19 pandemisi koşullarında, doğumda ten tene temas kuran kadınların ve doğumdan sonraki ilk 30 dakika içinde bebeğini emziren annelerin Emzirme Özyeterlilik Ölçeği (EÖYÖ) puan ortalamalarının daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0,05). Sonuç: DSÖ önerileri doğrultusunda bilgi sahibi olan ve Covid-19 pandemisi sürecinde bu önerileri uygulayan kadınların emzirme öz yeterliliklerinin daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Materials and Methods: The sample of the study consisted of 382 women. The data were collected using the 'Patient Identification Form', 'Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale (BSES)', and 'Breastfeeding Information and Behavior Form in the Covid-19 Process'. Results: Postnatal breastfeeding self-efficacy scale mean score of the participant was determined as 54.97±10.14. According to 31.7% of the participants, they stated that the pandemic period negatively affected the act of breastfeeding. It was determined that 59.2% of the women were not informed about breastfeeding specific to the pandemic process in line with the WHO Covid-19 breastfeeding recommendations. In this study, it was determined that in the conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic, women who had skin-to-skin contact at birth and mothers who breastfed their baby in the first 30 minutes after birth had a higher mean score on the BSES (p<0.05).
