简要总结
This study aims to explore how midwives in Germany perceive their professional role in the context of oral health of pregnant women and young children.
A nationwide, anonymous, non-interventional online survey will be conducted to assess self-perceived role, confidence in counseling, perceived barriers, information sources, and training needs.
The study is designed as an exploratory cross-sectional survey without hypothesis testing.
详细描述
Midwives play an important role in early health promotion, including during pregnancy and early childhood. Oral health is a relevant but often underrepresented topic in this context.
This study aims to explore midwives' perspectives on their role in oral health promotion, including their perceived responsibilities, confidence in counseling, and structural conditions in their professional practice.
Data will be collected using an anonymous online questionnaire distributed via professional organizations and networks.
