To gain a deeper understanding of pregnant women's expectations, attitudes and experiences regarding ultrasound examination during pregnancy.
In-depth interviews were conducted with eight pregnant Norwegian women prior to their 18-week scan. The data were analyzed through systematic text condensation.
The analysis generated three main themes: (1) I want to know if everything is fine, (2) Viewing the unborn child, (3) Holistic care. The women had a strong wish for ultrasound scanning and medical knowledge about their "baby" was their first priority interest. Visualizing the "baby" represented a strong emotional dimension for the parents-to-be and initiated the bonding process and the planning of a new life. The women wanted to be empowered and approached in a holistic way, where dialogic communication was needed.
The women wanted medical knowledge about the fetal health. They considered the examination a visual experience together with their partner. The scan provided a personification of and an attachment to the fetus. This experience was the first step in the planning of a new life. The women had ambivalent feelings related to the ultrasound examination and they highlighted the importance of holistic care, where the sharing of information happens on an individual basis.
更深入地了解孕妇对孕期超声检查的期望、态度和体验。
在8名挪威孕妇进行18周扫描前对她们进行了深入访谈。通过系统的文本浓缩对数据进行了分析。
分析产生了三个主要主题:(1)我想知道一切是否正常,(2)查看未出生的孩子,(3)整体护理。这些女性强烈希望进行超声扫描,了解有关她们“宝宝”的医学知识是她们首要的兴趣所在。对未来的父母来说,看到“宝宝”具有强烈的情感意义,并开启了情感联结过程以及新生活的规划。这些女性希望得到赋能,并以整体的方式与她们沟通,这需要对话式交流。
这些女性希望了解有关胎儿健康的医学知识。她们认为检查是与伴侣一起的视觉体验。扫描使胎儿变得具体可感并产生了情感联结。这种体验是新生活规划的第一步。这些女性对超声检查有着矛盾的感受,她们强调了整体护理的重要性,即信息共享应基于个体情况进行。
