Full description

This randomized controlled experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effects of midwife-led Pender's Health Promotion Model-based education given to immigrant women on perinatal mental health. The study was conducted with 52 intervention and 54 (48 in the post-test) control groups. The study consisted of five interviews. Data were collected using an introductory information form, perinatal mental health information form, Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale and Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale. Appropriate statistical analyses were performed in the analysis of data showing non-parametric distribution. The intervention group received 3 modules of training, and the control group received routine clinical care. The depression scores of the women in the intervention group did not show any significant difference over time, while the scores of the control group showed a significant difference. Depression scores between the groups showed significant differences in the third and fourth interviews. The anxiety scores of the women in the intervention and control groups showed a significant difference over time. No significant difference was observed between the groups in terms of anxiety scores. It can be said that the education based on Pender's Health Promotion Model has a protective and improving effect on perinatal health.

Experimental

Experimental group

Description:

It is planned to provide training on perinatal mental health to the experimental group in order to eliminate the lack of knowledge of women and to raise awareness. The pre-test will be applied during the pregnancy period before the training. These trainings, which will be held during pregnancy, consist of 3 modules. A training booklet in their preferred language (Turkish or Arabic) will be distributed to women at the end of each module. In addition, the effectiveness of the training will be evaluated at the end of each module and the knowledge deficiencies of women will be eliminated. A module training will be given every week and the training will be completed within three weeks. The effectiveness of the training will be evaluated in the postpartum period with the post-test.
