Filter by:Being a mother is a major and developmental life event involving the transition from an existing and known reality to a new unknown reality, in which the woman gains a new role. In the literature, factors such as age, social support, physical and psychosocial well-being, unrealistic positive or negative expectations, and readiness for the role of mother have been stated that affect maternal identity development, maternal self-efficacy and motherhood role performance. In addition, it has been emphasized that some women are especially at risk in this process. Primiparous (first time giving birth) women are among the groups at risk. Being a first-time mother is an important developmental transition in life, and change is an inevitable element of this process. A prompt and sensitive assessment of my antenatal and postnatal needs and appropriate planning of care are key to effectively supporting women in the transition to motherhood. Therefore, it is thought that individualized nursing care based on Transition theory will be a useful conceptual framework for primary women to realize a healthy transition to motherhood. No research has been found in the literature that evaluates the maternal role performance and parental self-efficacy of primiparous women based on a theory. In this direction, it is thought that this study will shed light on the planning of nursing care to be offered during the transition to motherhood, contribute to the nursing literature, women can make a healthy transition to the role of motherhood, and the risks such as unhealthy transition, role inadequacy, adverse effects on mother and baby health will be minimized. The aim of this study is to determine the Effect of Nursing Care Based on Meleis' Transition Theory on the Maternal Role Performance and Parental Self-Efficacy of Primiparous Women.
The rate of caesarean section is higher among obese pregnant women, leading to increased morbidity in this already vulnerable population. Oxytocin is the main drug used in obstetrics to optimize progress of labour, but observational studies have suggested that its efficiency may be insufficient in obese women with usual doses. We design a randomised controlled trial to test the effect of an increased oxytocin dose on the rate of caesarean section in obese primiparous women with spontaneous or induced labour.
