Abstract:
Objective To explore the connections between psychological intervention and pregnancy outcome of preg nant women with advanced maternal age. Methods All 196 primipara with advanced maternal age who received antenatal examination and gave birth to children in our hospital were randomly allocated to observation group(n=98)and control group(n=98). The control group received routine nursing while the observation group received psychological interven-tion. Mental conditions, pregnancy outcome and related complications were compared and analyzed between the two groups of pregnant women before and after the intervention. Results Scores of SCL-90 and Athens insomnia scale in the observation group after the intervention were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.01);all new-borns delivered by primipara with advanced ma ter nal age were alive; rate of natural childbirth in observation group(70.41%)was significantly higher than that in the control group (27.55%),and the difference was statistically signifi-cant (χ2=21.562,P<0.01). Rate of cesarean section in the control group (68.37%) was significantly higher than that in the observation group (27.55%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=15.208, P<0.01). Incidence of complications such as hypertension, premature birth, postpartum hemorrhage and full-term infants with low birth weight in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically sig-nificant(P<0.05). Conclusion Psychological intervention is capable of effectively improving the mental status of preg-nant women with advanced maternal age,and therefore ameliorates the pregnancy outcome.
