In most Western countries, ordinary parental classes exist and have become a well-established form of professional support within midwifery care, even though some of these classes lack evidence of benefits for the parents. A Swedish randomized controlled trial including an intervention as a pilot study, revealed that a type of parental preparatory professional support provided for expectant parents, the "inspirational lecture," showed a tendency to be beneficial for parents' birth experience, and their perceived quality of parental couple relationship. However, there is no previous research on the midwives' experiences from providing the inspirational lecture. Carrying out research on midwives' experiences from providing the lecture, could bring future opportunities to provide a work-integrated learning (WIL) related to professionals' skills, and the pedagogic used. To elucidate midwives' experiences about providing the inspirational lecture as a care intervention for expectant parents. Midwives were interviewed and data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. The midwives strived to put childbirth into a comprehensive and manageable context for the expectant parents, during the inspirational lecture. For this, different approaches were used to make expectant parents understand how the parents themselves can be engaged participants in their own birth. The midwives used the inspirational lecture to provide the expectant parents with knowledge about how they, as a parental couple, could cooperate and feel safe in relation to the upcoming birth. This could be understood as if the midwives were striving to facilitate the integrative power of the parental couple, which is the couples' ability to gather their joint power. These results can assist midwives and serve as a reference for providing parental classes for expectant parents with a focus on promoting both the parents' individual as well as mutual skills.
在大多数西方国家,普通的父母课堂存在,并已成为助产护理中一种成熟的专业支持形式,尽管其中一些课程缺乏对父母有益的证据。一项瑞典的随机对照试验包括一项干预措施作为试点研究,结果表明,一种为准父母提供的预备性专业支持形式,即“励志演讲”,对父母的分娩体验和他们感知的父母关系质量有有益的趋势。然而,之前没有关于助产士提供励志演讲的经验的研究。对助产士提供演讲的经验进行研究,可能会为提供与专业技能和教学法相关的工作整合学习(WIL)带来未来的机会。本研究旨在阐明助产士作为准父母护理干预措施提供励志演讲的经验。通过访谈助产士并使用定性内容分析进行数据分析。助产士在励志演讲中努力为准父母提供全面和可管理的分娩背景。为此,采用了不同的方法来使准父母理解父母如何能够成为自己分娩的积极参与者。助产士使用励志演讲向准父母传授有关他们作为父母的一对如何合作并在即将到来的分娩中感到安全的知识。这可以理解为,如果助产士努力促进父母的整合力量,即夫妻双方聚集他们共同力量的能力。这些结果可以为助产士提供帮助,并为为准父母提供父母课堂提供参考,重点是促进父母双方的个人和相互技能。
