mobile application will be developed to support the post-discharge home care of mothers of premature babies. With the developed mobile application, the effect of the education given to the mothers on the knowledge and skills of infant care, mother-infant attachment, and the mother's self-efficacy will be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

This research aims to examine the effect of the mobile application developed for the home care of the babies of the mothers of premature babies on their baby care knowledge and skills, mother-infant attachment and mother self-efficacy. A mobile application will be developed to support mothers who care for their premature babies at home after discharge. The application will be installed on the phones of mothers whose babies are discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit. After the babies are discharged, mothers will be trained at home with a mobile application. Maternal self-efficacy and mother-infant supplementation will be measured when infants admitted the NICU and one month after discharge the NICU.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. parent self-efficacy scale

    scale that measures mother's self-efficacy for baby care.The unabridged name of the scale is parent self-efficacy scale. The lowest score obtained from the scale is 18, the highest score is 90. low score indicates high self-efficacy

    Measured: up to 10 months
