OBJECTIVE
To describe and compare mothers' and nurses' perceptions of the needs of women experiencing preterm labor.
DESIGN
A descriptive/comparative approach was used.
SETTING
A tertiary-care teaching facility.
PARTICIPANTS
Convenience sample of 14 postpartum mothers and 25 registered nurses.
MAIN OUTCOMES
Subjects responded to 56 statements about the needs of women in preterm labor.
RESULTS
No statistically significant differences were found between mothers and nurses in their total responses to questionnaire items, but some significant isolated differences existed.
CONCLUSION
The nurse who identifies and satisfies these needs is likely to be more effective in meeting nursing-care goals.
