传统方法缓解妊娠晚期轻微不适的研究
背景:孕妇在怀孕期间会有轻微的不适。这是由于荷尔蒙的变化。常见的轻微不适有恶心呕吐、疲劳、便秘、心脏灼热、背痛、呼吸困难、腿抽筋、静脉曲张、失眠,即使变化并不危险,但仍然令人烦恼。女性使用一些传统的方法来缓解轻微的不适。目的探讨缓解妊娠晚期轻微不适的传统方法。设计:采用描述性设计。环境:本研究在Heker Altebeen中心和Alwehda Alrefeua bal Massaken Al-marazeq中心进行。研究对象:有目的的样本包括(75)名来自上述环境的孕妇。工具:使用两种工具收集数据;一份面试问卷。II .评估传统做法。结果:研究发现,研究孕妇的年龄、居住地与其妊娠晚期轻微不适传统缓解方法使用知识之间存在统计学显著性相关,研究孕妇的妊娠史与其妊娠晚期轻微不适传统缓解方法使用知识之间存在统计学显著性相关。结论:超过一半的被研究孕妇报告使用传统方法缓解轻微不适是高效的,而超过四分之一的被研究孕妇报告中度有效,不到四分之一的被研究孕妇报告轻度有效。建议:应为妇女制定健康教育方案,以提高她们对怀孕生理和怀孕期间有用的传统习俗的认识。
