培训有关猝死综合症的培训 (SIDS)

Pregnant women in their 38th week of pregnancy and later, who visited the hospital to have their NST scans, were then invited to the training with the Risk Factors Triggering Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Training Booklet

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Training Booklet was prepared. Prgenant women who agreed to participate were provided a face-to-face training on the risk factors triggering sudden infant death syndrome through the booklet. Following the educational session, they received the safe sleep handout to use at home and were informed that the researcher would call them two months later to check on their adherence to safe sleep practices. Following the training, participants were re-administered the Knowledge Level on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and Risky Behavior Identification Questionnaire and the training booklet was given to them as a gift. Two months after the training, the pregnant women were contacted via phone and they were required to fill out the Knowledge Level on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and Risky Behavior Identification Questionnaire once again.

Pregnant women in this group were not provided a specific training on the risk factors triggering sudden infant death syndrome. The clinic has already offered a pregnancy school where routine prenatal care training is provided.
