Overview
Brief Summary
The study was planned as a randomized controlled study to evaluate the effect of using natural landscape pictures accompanied by music during breastfeeding for lactating mothers on breastfeeding, breastfeeding satisfaction and maternal attachment.
Detailed Description
This research is planned as a randomized controlled study to evaluate the effect of using natural landscape pictures accompanied by music during breastfeeding on breastfeeding, breastfeeding satisfaction, and maternal attachment in lactating mothers. The research will be conducted with primiparous mothers who apply to Adıyaman University Training and Research Hospital Gynecology clinics between January 2024 and August 2024 and meet the inclusion criteria. The study will include a total of 90 participants, divided into one intervention group and one control group. As a pre-test, the Socio-Demographic Data Survey, LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnosis and Evaluation Scale, Visual Analogue Scale for Satisfaction Evaluation, and Maternal Attachment Scale will be administered to mothers who have just given birth at the clinic. Both groups will receive breastfeeding education. For the intervention group, mothers will watch nature scene pictures accompanied by music prepared by the researcher. This will be done once in the hospital, once during a home visit after discharge, and then daily at home, with the researcher checking in by phone to ensure the mothers watch the scenes eight more times. The intervention will be conducted a total of 10 times. Finally, the data collection phase will be completed by administering the post-test surveys to both groups.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Maternal Attachment Scale
Time Frame: Ten days
Each item is a 26-item, four-point Likert scale ranging from "always" to "never." Each item contains direct statements and is scored as follows: Always (a) = 4 points, Often (b) = 3 points, Sometimes © = 2 points, and Never (d) = 1 point. A high score indicates a high level of maternal attachment. The lowest score obtainable from the scale is 26, and the highest score is 104.
LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnostic and Evaluation Scale
Time Frame: Ten days
It is a diagnostic method used to evaluate breastfeeding success, first created in 1986 by likening it to the APGAR score system in terms of scoring method. The average application time varies between 7-10 minutes. It consists of five evaluation criteria, and the abbreviation of the first letters of the English equivalents of these criteria forms the name of the scale. L; latch on the breast, A; audible swallowing, T; type of the nipple, C; comfort breast/nipple, and H; hold/help. Each item is evaluated between 0-2 points. The highest total score that can be obtained is 10, and a high score indicates high breastfeeding success. The Turkish reliability study of the tool was conducted by Yenal and Okumuş, and it was found to be a suitable and reliable diagnostic tool for use. While the Cronbach's alpha value of the original form of the scale was found to be 0.93, it was found to be 0.95 in the Turkish adaptation study.
Socio-Demographic Data Survey
Time Frame: Ten days
It consists of 14 questions about the sociodemographic characteristics of mothers, prepared by the researcher through a literature review on the subject and in line with the suggestions of the thesis monitoring committee members."
The Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: Ten days
It is an extremely simple, effective, and repeatable measurement tool that requires minimal equipment and can be used to measure pain, nausea, vomiting, and satisfaction. The VAS is a 10 cm long scale drawn horizontally or vertically. The easiest way to assess satisfaction is to ask the individual if they are satisfied. However, a yes or no answer is not sufficient to evaluate satisfaction. Therefore, the use of a scale in assessing satisfaction transforms the quality of satisfaction described by individuals/patients with numbers or words into an objective measure, eliminating different interpretations among the healthcare team providing patient care. The visual analog scale consists of numbers ranging from 0 to 10. In evaluating patient satisfaction, 0 is considered not at all satisfied and 10 is considered very satisfied.
