Bozkurt, Merve Ayşe
Objective: Family health can be improved by making home visits with mobile applications. This study was carried out to
evaluate the effect of a mobile application and web-based software called Ebe Evimde (My Home Midwife), which was
designed by the researchers for use in the postpartum period, on mothers’ self-efficacy and anxiety levels.
Methods: Home visits to 60 mothers in the intervention group, who are over 18 years of age, who have given birth at term,
who have no complications in mother and baby, and who are in the second to fifth postpartum days, were made with the
online home visits mobile support application Midwifery Home software and their self-efficacy and anxiety levels were evaluated. Mothers were divided into two groups as intervention (60) and control group (60) using a random number table.
Results: While there was a significant difference between the pretest and posttest self-efficacy levels of the intervention
group, there was no difference between the pretest and posttest self-efficacy levels of the control group. When the groups
obtained from the Postpartum Specific Anxiety Scale were examined, it was seen that there was a negative and very strong
significant relationship between the pretest and posttest scores of the mothers in the intervention group, while when the
relationship between the pretest and posttest scores of the mothers in the control group was examined; no significant relationship was observed.
Conclusion: The practice of Ebe Evimde (My Home Midwife) had a positive effect on mothers’ self-efficacy and postpartum
anxiety levels.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of haptonomy applied to pregnant women on perceived stress, fear of childbirth, and prenatal attachment. The population of the randomized controlled experimental study consisted of 72 pri miparous pregnant women within the gestational weeks 22–28 who presented to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Polyclinic of a state hospital in Turkey for check-up (36 experimental subjects, 36 control subjects). A home visit was made to the experimental group, and haptonomy was applied for at least 30 min, once a week, for 7 weeks (with the researcher for 3
weeks, with the husband by providing the training brochure and video that will help the practice for the next 4 weeks). The control group did not receive any treatment. After the haptonomy application, the stress levels and fears of childbirth of the pregnant women in the experimental group decreased, and their attachment levels with their babies increased.

Pandemic process increase the vulnerability of women to intimate partner
violence (IPV). IPV is one of the greatest stress sources a woman can face. This
study’s purpose to determine effects of the Covid-19 pandemic process on
the IPV status and perceived stress levels of women. The population of the
descriptive study consisted 834 women working at a state university in
Turkey’s. 452 women who with intimate partner relationships were included
in the sample. Data collection tools were applied via online survey link. The
mean age of the women was 30.6 ± 4.20. The The Perceived Stress Scale
mean scores of the women were 40.18 ± 3.20. They are not able to cope with
stress effectively. It was determined that women participated the study were
exposed to more IPV during the pandemic process. It was found that as the
frequency of IPV increased, women’s perception of stress also increased.
Research such as this can be used to help inform decision-makers as they
grapple with the adverse negative effects of public health safety measures
related to Covid-19.

The study was conducted in order to determine the relationship between women’s perception of support and control during childbirth on fear of birth and mother’s satisfaction. This descriptive study was
carried out at the postpartum clinics of a state hospital. Seven hundred and twenty-five puerperal
women were included in the sample. T test in independent groups and Pearson’s correlation test were
used in the evaluation of the data. Seventy-six percent of the puerperal women had vaginal birth, 24%
had caesarean section. The mother’s perception of control and support at birth was moderate
(99.04 ± 17.30), the fear of birth was at clinical level in most of them (92.8%), and the satisfaction at
vaginal and caesarean births was low. Puerperal women who had a planned pregnancy, non-invasive
birth, birth without perineal tear had higher support and control perception at birth and lower fear of
birth than who had unplanned pregnancy, invasive birth, or birth with a perineal tear (p<.05).
Puerperal women who did not have any health problems during pregnancy and postpartum period
had higher satisfaction levels compared to those who did (p<.05). The high level of perception of support and control at birth decreases the fear of childbirth and increases the satisfaction levels of puerperal women in vaginal and caesarean births. All health professionals, especially perinatal nurses and
midwives, should strive to implement care initiatives that are appropriate to the needs of women.
