Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of proxy online health information seeking based on theory of planned behavior(TPB) of rural maternal for breast feeding guidance. The aim is to provide a theoretical basis for improving the rate of exclusive breast feeding among rural mothers.Methods:Using a quasi experimental research method and convenience sampling method, the study selected postpartum women and their primary caregivers who gave birth at Maoming Dianbai Maternal and Child Health Care hospital from October 2023 to April 2024 as the research subjects. According to the admission time, 47 parturients and their primary caregiver who gave birth between October and December 2023 were designated as the control group, while 50 parturients and their primary caregiver who gave birth between January and April 2024 were designated as the observation group. The control group received routine breast feeding education, while the observation group received proxy online health information seeking based on TPB breast feeding guidance. Compared the breast feeding knowledge, self-efficacy, family support, as well as the electronic health literacy and breast feeding knowledge of the primary caregivers of two groups of postpartum women.Results:The final control group included 40 maternal and their primary caregivers, while the observation group included 47 each. The maternal age of the control group was (36.73 ± 4.36) years, while that of the observation group was (35.96 ± 3.24) years. The main caregivers for the control group of parturients were 5 males and 35 females, aged 61.00 (59.00, 62.00) years old. There were 8 males and 39 females in the observation group, aged 62.00 (59.00, 64.00) years. After 6 months of intervention, the scores of breast feeding knowledge, self-efficacy, and family support were 14.00(12.00, 16.00), 45.67 ± 9.49, 3.00(3.00, 4.00) in the intervention group, more than those in the control group 7.00(2.00, 10.75), 37.15 ± 8.12, 2.00(2.00, 3.00) points, the differences were statistically significant between the two groups ( Z=-6.55, -5.68, t=-4.45, all P<0.05); the primary caregivers' electronic health literacy and breast feeding knowledge scores were 31.45 ± 4.92 and 14.00 (11.00, 16.00), respectively, higher than those of the control group family members 28.68 ± 4.46 and 4.50 (2.00, 9.75). The differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.38, Z=-7.19, both P<0.05). The pure breast feeding rate at 1 week, 3 months and 6 months postpartum were 70.2%(33/47), 63.8%(30/47), 59.6%(28/47) in the intervention group, more than those in the control group 47.5%(19/40), 37.5%(15/40), 27.5%(11/40), the differences were statistically significant between the two groups ( χ2=4.64, 6.00, 8.99, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Proxy online health information seeking based on TPB can effectively strengthen the health information searching ability of primary caregivers of rural maternal, and help rural maternal improve breastfeeding knowledge, self-efficacy and family support to promote exclusive breast feeding.
