Effectiveness of an Individual Counseling Program in Coping With the Fear of Childbirth: A Randomized Controlled Study

OBJECTIVES:To develop an individual counseling program to help women cope with their fear of childbirth and test the program for effectiveness.METHODS:A randomized controlled trial study was conducted over the period of August 2018 to April 2020. A total of 70 primiparas constituted the study sample. Women were randomized to (a) a control group and received standard care and (b) an intervention group and received standard care plus the individual counseling program.RESULTS:The individual counseling program significantly reduced the mean scores for fear of childbirth (intervention group: 30.81 ± 20.64; control group: 67.94 ± 27.37). The percentage of women in the intervention group preferring a normal delivery in the future (75.7%) was statistically higher compared to the control group (48.5%). The program did not affect cervical dilation, gestational week, duration of delivery, the baby’s birth weight, duration of stay at the hospital, and spontaneous labor.CONCLUSIONS:The results showed that the individual counseling program reduced primiparas’ fear of childbirth but did not have an impact on birth outcomes. Incorporating an individual counseling program into the routine prenatal care of pregnant women may diminish the level of their fear of childbirth and make childbirth a more positive experience.

The Relationship Between Rumination about Interpersonal Offense and Psychological Well-Being: The Mediation Effect of Forgiveness

The present study set out to explore the mediating role of forgiveness between the levels of rumination about interpersonal offense and psychological well-being in university students. The research utilized a correlational research design. The participant group consisted of a total of 342 students who were studying in the teaching departments of Gaziantep University in the 2020-2021 academic year. The Turkish versions of the Psychological Well-Being Scale, the Rumination about an Interpersonal Offense Scale, and the Heartland Forgiveness Scale were used as data collection tools. Structural equation modeling was performed on the data using the AMOS 20.0 program to analyze the direct effect of the rumination about interpersonal offense variable and the mediating effect of the forgiveness variable on the variable of psychological well-being. The results of the research revealed a significant negative correlation between rumination about interpersonal offense and forgiveness as well as rumination about interpersonal offense and psychological well-being, while forgiveness and psychological well-being were detected to be positively correlated. Finally, according to the SEM analysis, it was concluded that forgiveness is a partial mediator in the relationship between rumination about interpersonal offense and psychological well-being. Individual and group counseling or psycho-education programs may be prepared based on cognitive-behavioral therapy. These counseling activities or programs should focus on context-specific rumination rather than general rumination and forgiveness and cognitions about forgiveness.

HIV Risk Behaviors and Psychological Well-Being Among Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

HIV risk behaviors and psychological well-being among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (n = 140), were quantitatively described in relation to demographic and psychosocial factors. Most participants were tested for HIV and 41.4% reported living with HIV. Malay participants had significantly higher levels of depression (p < .05), homophobia (p < .01), and needs for social support (p < .01) than Chinese. More Chinese participants reported suicidal thoughts than Malaysians (p < .05). A multivariate analysis revealed that participants with gay/MSM-identified or had lower levels of self-esteem showed significantly higher levels of depression. Future intervention projects should address depression and mental health issues among MSM and strengthen self-esteem and social support through culturally competent support and individual counseling programs (e.g., addressing MSM's conflicts with religious beliefs and norms). Structural changes must be made incrementally to reduce homophobia against MSM in Malaysia while advocating human rights.

보육교사의 마음챙김과 직무만족도의 관계에서 심리적 안녕감과 자기분화의 이중매개효과

This study aimed to investigate whether psychological wellbeing and self-differentiation have a double mediating effect on the relationship between childcare teachers’ mindfulness and job satisfaction. Accordingly, a random sampling method was employed to distribute questionnaires to 530 childcare teachers who worked in daycare centers in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. After removing insincere responses, 489 questionnaires were analyzed. The results revealed that the higher the childcare teachers’ mindfulness, psychological wellbeing, and self-differentiation, the higher their job satisfaction. Furthermore, mindfulness leads to job satisfaction through self-differentiation and indirectly through psychological wellbeing. The mediating effect was confirmed as all indirect paths appeared to be significant. Moreover, it was demonstrated that the indirect path to job satisfaction through mindfulness sequentially through psychological wellbeing and self-differentiation was significant, thereby indicating that there was a double mediating effect. It is expected that this study’s results will be employed as basic data for the application of various individual and group counseling programs that may enhance childcare teachers’ psychological wellbeing and self-differentiation.

Delivering Cost-Effective Cervical Cancer Screening Package to Women Living With Human Immunodeficiency Virus By Reproductive Health Uganda

Background and context: Uganda has one of the highest cervical cancer incidences in the world. Over 80% late diagnosis compounds the challenge. It is evident that women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have a higher prevalence of precancer lesions and have limited access to cervical cancer knowledge and relevant services especially women living with HIV, who are poor and marginalized. This results in a gap for first-line defense to cervical cancer. To bridge the gap and deliver services, Reproductive Health Uganda (RHU) introduced cost-effective “see and treat”, single visit approach (SVA), using combined visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) and cryotherapy. Aim: To promote single visit approach in cervical cancer screening program in selected HIV clinics and assess the feasibility. Strategy: • Collaborate with HIV clinics, which enroll and provide counseling and services to women living with HIV • Integrate SVA into the current services package in HIV clinics and outreaches to break geographic barriers • Train RHU and public health clinic staff to perform VIA and cryotherapy if needed • Enable SVA in public antiretroviral therapy (ART) clinics through partnerships • Awareness creation through group health education and individual counseling Program: The project implemented in three high HIV prevalence rate districts targeted women 25-49 years of age. Partnered with public ART clinics and arranged training to ensure midwives and nurses in RHU and public health facilities are able to carry out VIA and cryotherapy if needed. Announcements and appointment posters were pinned up on the facility notice board providing details of dates and service package. RHU used this opportunity to promote contraception and STIs management. Health education and counseling session were conducted. Trained peer support mothers mobilized women seek cervical cancer screening when doing HIV follow-up. Quarterly support supervision, QOC assessments and DQAs were conducted to ensure quality and reliability of results and reports. Outcomes: Acceptability of cervical cancer screening was high. The project increased general awareness among rural community members, where cancer is generally stigmatized and associated with a lot of myths. Knowledge, skills and competencies of 54 midwives to screen for and treat with cryotherapy was built. 23,713 women were screened, with average VIA positivity rate 8%-11% across project districts. 98% of cryotherapy-eligible women treated during the same visit. Referral to Ugandan cancer institute was established to ensure timely cancer therapy. Integration and acceptability of family planning increased among women attending ART clinics. What was learned: With appropriate demand creation, acceptability of SVA was good among women attending the ART clinics, SVA is cost-effective and feasible. Integration of SRH package of services helps leverage resources. Strategic partnerships are critical in strengthening public–private partnership in services provision.

Effects on self-management behaviour after an individual nurse-led counselling programme for patients discharged early after myocardial infarction: A 12-month randomised controlled follow-up

Rationale, aims and objectives: Secondary prevention programmes reduce cardiovascular risk, but few studies have evaluated whether a nurse-led intervention for patients discharged early after myocardial infarction (MI) promotes self-management behaviour. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an individual nurse-led counselling programme combined with usual care versus usual care alone on self-management behaviour of patients discharged early after MI.Methods: Seventy-one patients were randomised to either the usual care (control group) or to the usual care combined with a 6-month follow-up individual nurse-led counselling programme (intervention group). The latter consisted of 3 face-to-face sessions and 2 telephone contacts over 6 months, starting 2 weeks after discharge. Primary outcome measures at 6- and 12-month follow-up was the difference in self-management behaviour assessed by the patient activation measure (PAM). Secondary outcomes included physical activity and diet habit.Results: The median age of patients was 63 years and 70% were males. The intervention group had a greater effect on their PAM scores and had higher average intensity and longer duration of physical activity at 6-months and a higher summary index of weekly physical activity at 6- and 12-month follow-up compared to the control group. There was a clinically relevant effect on diet score within the intervention group at 6- and 12-month follow-up.Conclusions: An individual nurse-led counselling programme combined with usual care for post-MI treatment, had an effect on self-management behaviour at 6-month follow-up. The results also indicate an effect on health behaviour at 12-month follow-up.

The effect of individual counseling program by a midwife on fear of childbirth in primiparous women.

INTRODUCTION:Fear of childbirth is a common problem in pregnant women, which in many cases leads to maternal requested cesarean. A midwife, as a responsible person, plays an important role in providing advice and giving care to mothers during pregnancy, delivery, and the postpartum period. The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effect of individual counseling program by a midwife on fear of childbirth in primiparous women.MATERIALS AND METHODS:This clinical trial was conducted in 2015–16, on ninety primiparous women with gestational ages of 28–30 weeks, who presented themselves at health-care centers in Mashhad. The individuals were randomly divided into two groups: intervention and control. The intervention group received the counseling program individually during three sessions, and the routine care was given to the control group. Data collection tools the Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire.

Comparison of Commercial and Self-Initiated Weight Loss Programs in People With Prediabetes: A Randomized Control Trial.

To determine if a widely available weight-management program (Weight Watchers) could achieve sufficient weight loss in persons with prediabetes compared with a Diabetes Prevention Program-based individual counseling program supported by National Diabetes Education Program materials. We conducted an individual, randomized intervention trial in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 2013 to 2014, in 225 persons with prediabetes. We compared the Weight Watchers weight-management program (n = 112) with Your Game Plan to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes, a program developed by the National Diabetes Education Program. Outcomes were weight and metabolic markers measured at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Intervention participants lost significantly more weight than controls at 6 months (5.5% vs 0.8%) and 12 months (5.5% vs 0.2%; both P < .001). The intervention group also had significantly greater improvements in hemoglobin A1c and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level than did controls. A large weight-management program is effective for achieving lifestyle changes associated with diabetes prevention. Such programs could significantly increase the availability of diabetes prevention programs worldwide making an immediate and significant public health impact.

Effects of a Three-Stage Intervention Program on the Holistic Health Status of Patients with Drug Addiction after Discharge

Background: Patients with drug addiction experience negative effects, not only regarding their own personal health, including cognitive and psychosocial abilities, but also on the part of their family members and society at large. Objectives: This quasi-experimental research examined the effect of an intervention program for patients, along with their families, on improving the holistic health status of patients after discharge. Patients and Methods: Ninety patients were selected and were paired according to gender, age, education, and type of drug addiction. Simple random assignment was used to allocate each subject in the experimental (N = 45) and control (N = 45) groups. A standardized health assessment questionnaire (SF-36V2), covering eight study areas of holistic health status in terms of physical, mental, and social functioning, was administered. The experimental treatment, or the three-stage intervention program, consisted of an individual counseling program and a relapse prevention training program for patients, together with a family participation program. Descriptive statistics were calculated and chi-square test was used to compare the characteristics of two groups. Also t-test was applied to compare the mean scores of health status. Results: The patients that received treatment in the experimental group had a higher mean score (before mean = 105.76 and after mean = 109.42; P = 0.013) regarding the difference in their holistic health status than those in the control group (before mean = 107.09 and after mean = 106.56; P = 0.713). This result showed that a three-stage intervention program helped improve the patients’ holistic health status. Conclusions: It is suggested that for addiction rehabilitation and relapse prevention, health practitioners should not only provide an intervention program to their patients, but they should design a program for families to participate in the treatment as well so that patients can function at a higher level of wellness. Therefore, the family participation program should be reinforced as part of the therapeutic intervention.
