OBJECTIVE: Findings in the literature indicate that women often have incorrect or incomplete knowledge about the concepts of microbiota, microbiome, probiotics, prebiotics, and their relationship with women's health, pregnancy, childbirth methods, and breast milk. In this regard, designing educational programs that contribute to preventing reproductive system infections, achieving positive fertility outcomes, and supporting the health processes of women and newborns through the microbiota of the female body can contribute to the current situation. In line with this aim, in this study, the development and evaluation of a microbiota education program for women were conducted. METHODS: The research was conducted with 151 female participants in a pre-test and post-test, single-group, quasi-experimental design. The trainings were conducted for 2 days, with a total of 4 h for each group, 2 h each day. The microbiota knowledge test applied before the training was repeated as a post-test after 4 weeks. SPSS 25.0 was used for data analysis. RESULTS: It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference between the pre-training and post-training knowledge scores of the participants, with the post-training knowledge scores being higher than the pre-training scores (p<0.05). It was found that there was an increase in intra-group means for age, education level, occupation, number of pregnancies, number of births, and method of delivery after the training. CONCLUSION: As a result of the evaluations, it was concluded that the microbiota education program developed and implemented for women addressed all female participants.
目的:文献研究结果表明,女性对于微生物群、微生物组、益生菌、益生元及其与女性健康、妊娠、分娩方式和母乳之间关系的概念,往往存在错误或不完整的认知。在这方面,设计有助于预防生殖系统感染、实现积极生育结果,并通过女性身体的微生物群支持女性和新生儿健康进程的教育项目,能够改善当前状况。基于这一目标,本研究开展了一项针对女性的微生物群教育项目的开发与评估。 方法:本研究采用前测和后测、单组、准实验设计,对151名女性参与者进行研究。培训为期2天,每组共4小时,每天2小时。培训前进行的微生物群知识测试在4周后作为后测重复进行。使用SPSS 25.0进行数据分析。 结果:结果显示,参与者培训前和培训后的知识得分存在统计学上的显著差异,培训后的知识得分高于培训前(p<0.05)。研究发现,培训后年龄、教育水平、职业、怀孕次数、分娩次数和分娩方式的组内均值有所增加。 结论:评估结果表明,为女性开发和实施的微生物群教育项目覆盖了所有女性参与者。
