Abstract:
Objective:To explore the symptom experience of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in pregnant women, so as to provide a basis for strengthening the prevention and control of SUI and formulating standardized symptom management strategies.Methods:From July 2018 to November 2019, purpose sampling was used to select 11 pregnant women with SUI undergoing routine prenatal examination in the Obstetric Clinic of Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University as the research objects. The semi-structured interview was conducted with pregnant women, and the data were analyzed using grounded theory in qualitative research.Results:A total of four themes were extracted, namely, lack of cognition, different coping attitudes, poor symptom experience, and urgent need for symptom management knowledge.Conclusions:SUI pregnant women generally have insufficient knowledge of the disease, poor symptom experience, different response attitudes, and urgent need for symptom management knowledge. Therefore, for SUI pregnant women, all aspects of personal-family-society support should be provided, social publicity of SUI symptom management knowledge should be strengthened, positive guidance and encouragement should be given, family members should be encouraged to participate, and an internet digital information platform should be actively constructed to ultimately reduce the incidence of SUI in pregnant women.
