本研究的目的是评估传统产前护理与群体护理模式(以怀孕为中心)对母亲妊娠知识、社会支持、健康控制点和满意度的影响。中心妊娠护理模式可以让患者在团体环境中与提供者有更长时间的接触。该研究对孕妇进行了两组预测试/后测试设计,她们选择传统的产前护理方法(n = 48)或居中方法(n = 50)。这项研究的结果显示,在怀孕知识的后测中,各组之间存在统计学上的显着差异。对于社会支持和健康控制点,预测试的高分导致了天花板效应,限制了改变的潜力。需要进行更多研究来评估选择替代产前护理方法的妇女的健康状况结果。
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of traditional prenatal care versus a group model of care, Centering Pregnancy, on maternal knowledge of pregnancy, social support, health locus of control, and satisfaction. The Centering Pregnancy model of care gives patients extended time with the provider in a group setting. The study used a two-group, pretest/posttest design of pregnant women who elected either the traditional approach to prenatal care (n = 48) or the Centering approach (n = 50). The results of this study showed statistically significant differences between the groups on posttest in knowledge of pregnancy. For social support and health locus of control, the high scores at pretest contributed to a ceiling effect, which limited the potential for change. Additional research is needed to assess health status outcomes among women electing alternative approaches to prenatal care.
