Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Breastfeeding; Self Efficacy

• Registration Number: NCT06918574
• Lead Sponsor: Selcuk University

Brief Summary

The effect of the breastfeeding roadmap used in primiparas on breastfeeding self-efficacy perception and breastfeeding success will be evaluated.

Detailed Description

The research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. Mothers who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be assigned to the intervention and control groups according to the randomization list.

A total of 74 primiparous mothers who gave birth, 37 in the intervention group and 37 in the control group, will be included in the study.

In addition to the routine breastfeeding education given by the clinic's education nurse, the mothers in the intervention group will also receive a "Breastfeeding Roadmap" education poster developed by the researchers, which will be hung on the wall of their rooms. The researcher will introduce the Breastfeeding Roadmap to the mothers and provide information on breastfeeding. Routine hospital breastfeeding education will receive to mothers in the control group after childbirth.

Data Collection Pre-Test; Introductory Information Form, Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short-Form, LATCH Breastfeeding Assessment Tool at the 1st hour after birth. Pre-test data will collect by the researcher in the patient room within the first hour after birth (before Breastfeeding Roadmap breastfeeding education and hospital breastfeeding education were implemented) by face-to-face interview method.

Post-test; Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short-Form, LATCH Breastfeeding Assessment Tool at least two hours before mothers are discharged from the hospital (the discharge period usually varies between 24 and 48 hours).

At the end of the study, the results of the mothers in the experimental and control groups will be evaluated.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Sociodemographic characteristics	Within the first hour after the mother's birth.	Comparison of sociodemographic characteristics of women before the intervention with the questionnaire
Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Short Form Scale	Before mothers were discharged from the hospital (the discharge period usually varies between 24 and 48 hours)	Post-test data will be collected before mothers are discharged from the hospital (Post-test).; The scale consists of 14 items. It is scored between 1-5 and the lowest 14 and the highest 70 points can be obtained. The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the breastfeeding self-efficacy.
LATCH Breastfeeding Assessment Tool	Before mothers were discharged from the hospital (the discharge period usually varies between 24 and 48 hours)	Post-test data will be collected before mothers are discharged from the hospital (Post-test).; The scale consists of five evaluation criteria and each item is evaluated between 0-2 points. The score that can be obtained from the measurement tool can vary between 0-10. The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the breastfeeding success.
