Abstract

Purpose

Premature birth may be associated with infant health problems and frequently requires in-hospital and then at-home specialized care. Studies investigating home-caring experiences of mothers of preterm infants in developing countries are limited. This study was to explore preterm mothers' experiences of caring practices at home 1 month after their infant's discharge from a neonatal unit.

Design and Method

A descriptive qualitative study using in-depth interviews with eight purposively sampled mothers who had been discharged home from neonatal unit in one city in Indonesia. All interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using thematic analysis.

Result

Three main themes emerged: (1) transition to independent motherhood, (2) focus on care of infant after discharge, and (3) barriers and enablers for care. The mothers managed their infant care at home by focusing on feeding and managing infant health problems. They faced on myth and culture as one of the barriers.

Conclusions

Comprehensive discharge education for mothers of preterm infants and their families is required to enhance mothers' caring abilities and overcome barriers is sufficient. Nurses/midwives need to improve care related to the well-being of mothers and their infants in preparation for, and after, discharge from the neonatal unit.

印尼母亲对出院后在家照顾早产儿的看法:一项质性研究

目的早产可能与婴儿健康问题有关，通常需要住院，然后在家进行专门护理。调查发展中国家早产儿母亲家庭护理经验的研究是有限的。本研究旨在探讨早产母亲在婴儿出院1个月后在家照护的经验。设计与方法:一项描述性质的研究，采用深度访谈的方式，对印度尼西亚一个城市的8名从新生儿病房出院的母亲进行有目的的抽样调查。所有访谈录音，逐字转录，并使用专题分析进行分析。结果:(1)向独立母亲的转变;(2)对婴儿出院后护理的关注;(3)护理的障碍和促进因素。母亲们在家照顾婴儿，注重喂养和处理婴儿健康问题。他们面对的障碍之一是神话和文化。结论对早产儿母亲及其家庭进行全面的出院教育，提高母亲的关爱能力，克服障碍是充分的。护士/助产士需要在新生儿病房出院前和出院后改善与母亲及其婴儿健康有关的护理。
