About this study

Official title: The Effects of the Intrapartum Care Model Given in Line With the Recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) on the Mother's Maternal Behavior Towards Her Baby, Breastfeeding Self-efficacy, Breastfeeding Success, and Hospital Discharge Readiness

The objective of this study was to examine the impact of the intrapartum care model that adheres to the guidelines set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO) on several key outcomes, including the mother's maternal behavior towards her infant postpartum, breastfeeding self-efficacy, the success of breastfeeding, and the mother's readiness for hospital discharge.

Read the detailed description

The study was a randomized controlled trial. The study was conducted with 128 primiparous pregnant women (intervention group n=64, control group n=64) admitted to the maternity unit of a training and research hospital in a province in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey. Pregnant women in the intervention group were provided with intrapartum care in accordance with the WHO recommendations following the achievement of cervical dilatation reaching 5 cm. The control group was provided with only standard intrapartum and postpartum care. Data were collected using a personal information form, a postpartum parenting behavior scale, a breastfeeding self-efficacy scale, a breastfeeding charting system and documentation tool (LATCH), and a hospital discharge readiness scale.

Study groups in NCT06551571
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intervention GroupExperimental* In pregnant women with cervical dilatation of 5 cm, the Personal Information Form was completed at the initial clinic admission. * The Intrapartum Care Model was implemented for all primiparous pregnant women assigned to the intervention group during labor and after delivery by the researcher midwife, in accordance with the World Health Organization's positive birth recommendations. * The Postpartum Parenting Behavior Scale (PPBS), Breastfeeding Self-efficacy Scale (BSS), A Breastfeeding Charting System and Documentation Tool (LATCH), and Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale-New Mother Form (RHD-NMF) were administered postpartum.
Receives: Other: Intrapartum Care Model
Control GroupNo intervention* Routine intrapartum care was provided to the pregnant woman in the hospital setting. This included taking an anamnesis, completing her file, opening an intravenous line, conducting routine blood tests, taking vital signs, recording cervical changes on the partograph via vaginal examination, applying EFM (electronic fetal monitoring) when indicated according to the attending physician's orders, listening to the fetal heart sounds (FHR) every fifteen minutes, and documenting this on the partograph. * The mother and infant received standard postpartum care in the hospital. Breastfeeding was initiated immediately after delivery, and the infant was placed in direct contact with the mother. The uterine tone and bleeding of the mother were evaluated, and vital signs were taken every four hours. Nutrition and mobilization were ensured, and a heel prick blood sample was taken in the 24th hour after delivery. If the mother and infant were normal after 24 hours, they were discharged.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of pre-intervention sociodemographic of pregnant women.

    Sociodemographic of pregnant women will be collected through surveys and compared and reported

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Comparison of pre-intervention obstetric features of pregnant women

    Obstetric of pregnant women will be collected through surveys and compared and reported.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Comparison of postpartum characteristics of pregnant women

    Postpartum characteristics of pregnant women will be collected through surveys and compared and reported.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Comparison of mother's postpartum parenting behavior towards her baby mean scores by groups

    The postpartum parenting behavior scale will be applied to mothers. The postpartum parenting behavior scale is 0-6 points (min-max) and as the score increases, the level of positive parenting behaviors of mothers towards their babies increases.

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Comparison of mother's breastfeeding self-efficacy scale mean scores by groups

    The breastfeeding self-efficacy scale will be applied to mothers. The breastfeeding self-efficacy scale is 14-70 points (min-max) and as the score increases, the breastfeeding self-efficacy of the mothers increases.

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Comparison of mother's A Breastfeeding Charting System and Documentation Tool (LATCH) mean scores by groups

    The Breastfeeding Charting System and Documentation Tool (LATCH) will be applied to mothers.

    The LATCH is 0-10 points (min-max) and as the score increases, the LATCH of the mothers increases.

    Measured: 6 months

  7. Comparison of mother's readiness for hospital discharge scale-new mother form mean scores by groups

    The readiness for hospital discharge scale-new motherwill be applied to mothers.
