Interpreting the published outcomes of hand function in total BPBI is confounded by a lack of clear documentation regarding detailed surgical findings and management strategies. Investigators have followed a well-defined protocol for surgical reconstruction with the primary objective being reinnervation of the lower trunk using the best available root. In this paper, Investigators outline the details of the strategy and provide a comprehensive analysis of the nerve reconstruction techniques and the resulting functional outcomes.
Women's psycho-social health during pregnancy could influence the course of pregnancy, psychological and emotional life, not only in labor but also during the postpartum period. Women's perception of birth and their self-efficacy may affect the birth and postpartum period, and their delivery preference. The study aims to examine the effect of solution-oriented approach training on traumatic birth perception, vaginal birth selfefficacy, and delivery preference. It was designed in a randomized controlled experimental type. The sample in the study will comprise 80 pregnant women (40 experimental and 40 control groups) with the help of power analysis. The study is going to be conducted with pregnant women applying to KTU Farabi Hospital between May and December 2022. 6-8 sessions of solution-oriented approach training will be given to pregnant women with 28 weeks of gestation and above and willing to take part in the study, and their delivery preferences will be examined, afterward. The pregnant women in the control group, on the other hand, will not be subjected to any training or interview other than routine pregnancy follow-ups. Data will be gathered through the Pregnant introductory information form, traumatic birth perception scale form, and vaginal birth self-efficacy form. Ethics Committee Permission, institutional permission from the institution where the research will be conducted, and written informed consent from the mothers will be obtained before the research. The data will be statistically evaluated through the SPSS 23 program. Student t-test or Mann-Whitney U tests will be applied for two independent groups. One A Way or Kruskal-Wallis tests will be applied for three or more independent groups, depending on whether the data meet the parametric conditions. Paired T or Wilcoxon tests will be used for two dependent groups, and Friedman or Repeat Measure tests will be applied for three or more groups. In statistical evaluation, p<0.05 will be considered significant.
It is the right of both the mother and her baby to receive the best care and give birth in the best way possible for every pregnant woman. World Health Organization midwife; It defines a person trained to provide necessary care and counseling during pregnancy, at birth and after birth, to have normal births under his own responsibility, to care for the newborn and to provide family planning counseling. According to the Ministry of Health, the midwife provides these services as well as immunization, protection from infectious and social diseases, etc. He is a healthcare professional who fulfills his roles. However, in our country, pregnancy, birth and postpartum care services are primarily carried out under the control of a physician, and most of them include medical follow-up. The routine care given by midwives to pregnant women during pregnancy is unfortunately limited to performing the procedures and cannot adequately meet the needs of the woman. As a result, cesarean section rates in our country have risen well above the acceptable level by WHO. Studies have shown that the rate of cesarean section increases with the number of pregnant women who apply to the doctor for pregnancy control. Turkey is the country with the highest cesarean section rates among OECD countries. According to the 2018 results of the Turkey Demographic and Health Survey (TNSA), the rate of cesarean section in our country is 52%. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommended 10-15% cesarean section rate in terms of maternal and infant health in 1985, and re-evaluated this recommendation in 2015. Women who have had a cesarean delivery have greater risks compared to women who have had a vaginal delivery. One of the most common complications after cesarean section is sepsis, and maternal mortality rates increase due to complications such as bleeding and infection after cesarean section. In addition, the choice of cesarean section, which negatively affects many variables such as epigenetically transmitted fear of birth and traumatic birth perception, breastfeeding and microbiota of the baby, is an important factor that will affect future generations. Cesarean section rates, which also cause high maternal and neonatal complication rates, have become a problem that increases health expenditures economically all over the world. However, cesarean section rates are decreasing in countries where midwives play an active role in pregnancy follow-up. In the midwife-led continuous care model (MLCC), which is carried out by midwives, especially in countries with high normal birth rates, care is completely woman-centered. The model advocates vaginal delivery, which is the most superior form of delivery for maternal and infant health. Studies show that midwife-led continuous care increases vaginal birth rates, women experience a more positive birth, and reduces many unnecessary medical interventions. Within the scope of this care model, midwives train pregnant women from the beginning of pregnancy to the postpartum period and minimize their fear of childbirth based on the fear of the unknown. Another advantage of MLCC is that care will be given by the same midwife or midwife group. This ensures a good bond and uninterrupted communication between the woman and her midwife. This maintenance model is not yet used in our country. The study to be carried out with this training process planned within the scope of MLCC is unique in that it will be carried out for the first time at the national level. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of training to be given with MLCC in reducing cesarean section preferences.
Pregnancies in women with pre-existing diabetes are considered "high risk" pregnancies, poses daily clinical challenges and in terms of research - a number of unanswered questions. Therefore, the investigators wish to establish a nationwide cohort of pregnancies complicated by pre-existing diabetes - the Danish Diabetes Birth Registry (DDBR2) The DDBR2 registry comprises all types of pre-existing diabetes including T1D, T2D and other types (as MODY), generating a nationwide cohort of mother/partner/children trios with accessible registry-, clinical data and biological biobank samples. This will enable the investigators to use data longitudinally to examine short- and long-term outcomes of pregnancies in women with diabetes.
Since all the follow-up and care of the pregnant during the prenatal period are carried out by the midwives, the care provided by the midwives to the women during the prenatal period plays a key role for the woman to have a comfortable and healthy pregnancy. Midwives should take psychological approaches in order to reduce the negative feelings of women before cesarean section. Considering all these, it is thought that Emotional Freedom Technique, which does not require any invasive intervention, is inexpensive and easy to apply, will contribute to women's feeling better by reducing pre-cesarean anxiety, surgical fear and traumatic birth perception.
