This descriptive, retrospective survey (part of a larger study) employed a questionnaire to determine the behaviors of 40 expectant fathers to the stress generated by their spouses' labors and deliveries. Results indicated that the experience was stressful for all the expectant fathers, and expectant fathers only coached their spouses with their breathing exercises at labor's peak. Fathers spent more time trying to hide their feelings and worrying about their usefulness. These findings have significance for the prenatal education of couples, the education of health professionals, and the practice of labor and delivery nursing.
这项描述性回顾性调查（一项更大规模研究的一部分）采用问卷调查的方式，以确定40名准父亲面对其配偶分娩时所产生压力的行为表现。结果表明，所有准父亲都感受到了压力，且准父亲仅在分娩高峰期指导配偶进行呼吸练习。父亲们花更多时间试图隐藏自己的情绪，并担心自己是否有用。这些研究结果对夫妻的产前教育、健康专业人员的教育以及分娩护理实践具有重要意义。
