Growth retardation in children is a result of nutritional ignorance, inappropriate care, and inadequate monitoring of growth monitoring. This study was performed to assess the effect of mothers education program based on the precede model on the mean weight of children (6-12 months) at health centers in Shiraz, Fars Province.
This quasi experimental study was conducted on 120 mothers (60 in the experimental and 60 in the control group) with single child and exclusively on breast feeding who were cared by health centers in Shiraz, Fars province. The data were gathered through a questionnaire which included demographic characteristics, the components of the precede model (knowledge, attitude, enabling as well as reinforcing factors, and maternal function) and child weight. Educational intervention was performed during 6 sessions each of which lasted for 55 to 60 minutes. The questionnaire was completed by the experiment a land control group before and 4 months after the training program.
The results showed that the educational intervention program in the experimental group caused significant increase in the means of knowledge (p<0.001) and attitude scores (p<0.001). This study showed that enabling and reinforcing factors (and training sessions), performance score of mothers as well as weight of children among experimental group were significantly higher than control group (p=0.01).
The results of this study can be used as a guideline prevents growth retardation in health centers and other related organizations.
儿童生长发育迟缓是营养知识匮乏、护理不当以及生长监测不足的结果。本研究旨在评估基于PRECEDE模式的母亲教育项目对法尔斯省设拉子市各健康中心6至12个月儿童平均体重的影响。
本准实验研究针对法尔斯省设拉子市各健康中心护理的120名单胎且纯母乳喂养的母亲(实验组60名,对照组60名)开展。数据通过一份问卷收集,问卷包括人口统计学特征、PRECEDE模式的组成部分(知识、态度、促成及强化因素和母亲功能)以及儿童体重。教育干预通过6次课程进行,每次课程持续55至60分钟。实验组和对照组在培训项目前后均完成问卷填写。
结果显示,实验组的教育干预项目使知识均值(p<0.001)和态度得分(p<0.001)显著提高。本研究表明,实验组的促成及强化因素(和培训课程)、母亲的表现得分以及儿童体重均显著高于对照组(p=0.01)。
本研究结果可作为健康中心及其他相关组织预防生长发育迟缓的指导方针。
