Abstract

Objeetlve To explore the impact of accountable and kindred - like nursing on breastfeeding self-efficacy of primipara. Methods 100 primiparas from August 2010 to October 2010 were collected as control group, and another 100 primiparas from January 2011 to March 2011 were collected as experimental group. Three months before and after accountable and kindred-like nursing carried out, breastfeeding Self- efficacy Scale （BSES） was respectively used to evaluate the effect on breasffeeding self-efficacy between the two groups. Results Before and after the implementation of accountable and kindred-like nursing, the scores of breasffeeding self-efficacy increased, and the difference was statistically significant [ （ 55. 18±5. 44 ） vs （48.26 ±4.89） ,（70.98 ±5.08）vs（59.81 ±5.97）, （126.38±6.42） vs（108.16±7.97） ;t =9. 46, 14. 25, 17.81 ,respectively;P 〈 0. 05 ]. The scores of skills dimension and inner activities dimension among parturients underwent caesarean section increased, and the difference was statistically significant [ （ 49.54 ±5.58 ） vs （42.42 ±4.69） ,（64.12 ±5.56）vs（52.71 ±5.76）, （113.89 ±6.52）vs（130.11±5.87） ;t =8.94, 13.02, 17.19 ,respectively; P 〈 0. 05 ]. The scores of skills dimension and inner activities dimension among vaginal delivery puerperants increased, and the difference was statistically significant [ （ 57.23 ± 5.33 ） vs （ 50.72± 4.99） ,（72.68 ±5.62）vs（60.21 ±5.70）, （97.64 ±5.68）vs（111. 46 ±5.66） ;t = 3.61, 3. 29, 15.59, respectively ;P 〈 0. 05 ]. Conclusions Accountable and kindred-like nursing can improve the breastfeeding selfefficacy of primipara. Key words: Breastfeeding; Accountable and kindred-like nursing; Self-efficacy
