Abstract
Aim. To study of the influence of complex psycho-preventive preparation for childbirth in primiparous patients on some features of their psycho-emotional status. Materials and methods. A cross-sectional prospective study of 286 nulliparous women in full-term pregnancy, aged 21 to 35 years, was carried out, among them 142 pregnant women (the main group) attended courses of complex psycho-preventive preparation for childbirth in the third trimester of pregnancy. The control group consisted of 144 primiparas who did not attend antenatal training courses. To assess the psychological status of pregnant women, the method for assessing the psychological component of the gestational dominant (PCGD) was used according to I. V. Dobryakov. Anxiety was assessed according to the scale of situational and personal anxiety Ch.D. Spielberger and Yu.L. Khanina. Results. It was revealed that attending birth-giving women 4.8 times more often leads to the formation of the optimal type of psychological component of the gestational dominant. The effects of attending antenatal training classes on the level of situational anxiety in pregnant women are manifested in the form of a significant decrease in its level – OR 0.28 (95% CI 0.15-0.54). Conclusion. Comprehensive antenatal preparation for childbirth in primiparous leads to an improvement in some emotional characteristics of pregnant women, including the formation of the optimal type of psychological component of the gestational dominant and a decrease in situational anxiety.
