Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of education in pregnant women’s school on primipara mode of delivery and puerperal behavior.Methods Two hundred and twenty cases who delivered in our hospital and paid postpartum visits were divided into observation group and control group equally according to whether they had attended the pregnant women’s school.The observation group included those having attended the school and the control those who had not.The two groups were compared in terms of primipara mode of delivery and puerperal behavior.Results The rates of maternal vaginal delivery and cesarean section rate in observation group were 71.8%and 28.2%,both significantly higher than those of the control group(52.7%and 47.3%)(P<0.01).The rate of caesarean section due to social factors in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Besides,the observation group had higher rates of puerperiumal shampoo, showering, eating vegetables and fruits,brushing,use of air-conditioners than the control group did(all P<0.01).Conclusions Prenatal maternal health education in the pregnant women’s school affects puerperous behavior.It suggests that prenatal parturients actively participate in related education on maternal health care,which can help establish a good pregnancy and puerperium maternal behavior,reduce maternal cesarean section and thus help them live through puerperium.
