Abstract:
Objective:To systematically evaluate the psychological experience of women with fetal loss during subsequent pregnancy and to inform future care for women with fetal loss during subsequent pregnancy.Methods:Qualitative studies on the psychological experience of women with fetal loss during subsequent pregnancy was electronically searched in Chinese and English databases such as VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, PsycINFO. The search period was from database establishment to August 15, 2024. Literature quality was assessed using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Australia Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center, and data integration and analysis was performed using the aggregative synthesis approach.Results:A total of 11 articles were included. Thirty-four findings were distilled, similar findings were grouped into nine new categories, and three integrative findings were consolidated for the coexistence of positive and negative emotions, the need for multifaceted social support, and strategies to cope with negative emotions during subsequent pregnancy.Conclusions:Women with fetal loss have a complex psychological experience during subsequent pregnancy. Medical and nursing staff should focus on this group of people, identify the psychological state of women in a timely and accurate manner, and provide them with targeted support to help them get through their pregnancy.
