Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of telephone follow-up on breasffeeding intention of unipara during the postpartum period.Methods The quasi-experimental method was used and 100 recruited unipara were divided into the control group ( n =50 ) and the experimental group ( n = 50 ).A continuing telephone follow-up was provided by community nurses to the experimental group 1 week,2 weeks,and 4 weeks after delivery,and provided psychological nursing and solution to the difficult of breasffeeding. Unipara breasffeeding intentions were collected when their discharge and 6 weeks after delivery when they received postpartum cheek up in clinics.Then,unipara breastfeeding intentions,attitude,perception behaviour control,and subjective standard were observed.Results During hospital,the average score of breastfeeding intention among 100 unipara was (4.58 ± 0.46 ),the average score of perception behaviour control was ( 3.31 ± 0.46 ),the average score of attitude was (4.29 ± 0.43 ),the average score of subjective standard was ( 3.84 ± 0.42 ),and there was no significantly difference in breastfeeding intention and others between two groups (P ＞0.05).Six weeks after delivery,the average score of breastfeeding intention,perception behaviour control,subjective standard,attitude in turn was (4.45 ±0.51),(3.24 ±0.59),(3.91 ±0.46),(4.18 ±0.54) ; breastfeeding intention and others between two groups,there was no significantly differences( P ＞ 0.05).The breastfeeding intention in intervention group was maintain higher after six weeks,and no difference was detected when compared with that during hospital (P＞0.05),while the average score of attitude in control group was decreased from (4.32 ±0.46) to (4.13 ±0.59),and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusions The telephone follow up provided by community nurses can increase the intention of new mothers' breastfeeding intention by continuing consulting,encouragement and supports.
