Abstract:

 Aim: This study was conducted to determine the status of prenatal care received by pregnant women affected by the earthquake. Material and Methods: The research was conducted in Türkiye between June 2023 and August 2023. The population of the research consisted of pregnant women affected by the Kahramanmaraş-centered earthquake in February 2023. The data of the study was collected via social media using a web-based survey. A sample calculation was not made in the study, and all 349 pregnant women who approved to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria were included. Post hoc power analysis was performed after the study. After the analysis, the power of the test was determined as 99.9 according to the 95 confidence interval and one-way hypothesis. Results: In the study, it was determined that pregnant women had difficulties in providing regular pregnancy check-ups, reaching a specialist doctor and family midwife, accessing toilets, baths, showers, personal care and body care, that they could not rest enough after the earthquake, and that the level of anxiety they felt about birth, postpartum period and baby care increased. Conclusion: It was determined that pregnant women affected by the earthquake had difficulties in receiving prenatal care, and their anxiety scores about the birth and postpartum periods and the anxiety scores about the care of their babies in the postpartum period were above average.

 Amaç: Bu araştırma depremden etkilenen gebelerin prenatal bakım alma durumlarının belirlenmesi amacıyla yürütüldü. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırma, Haziran  Ağustos 2023 tarihleri arasında Türkiyede gerçekleştirildi. Araştırmanın evrenini Şubat 2023 tarihli Kahramanmaraş merkezli depremden etkilenen gebeler oluşturdu. Veri toplama formunda yer alan sorular, araştırmacılar tarafından yapılan literatür taraması sonucu oluşturuldu. Araştırmanın verileri web tabanlı anket kullanılarak sosyal medya aracılığı toplandı. Araştırmada örneklem hesaplaması yapılmayıp çalışmaya katılmayı onaylayan ve alınma kriterlerini sağlayan toplam 349 gebe alındı. Çalışma sonrasında Post hoc power analizi yapıldı. Analiz sonrasında 95 güven aralığı ve tek yönlü hipoteze göre testin gücü 99,9 olarak tespit edildi. Bulgular: Çalışmada gebelerin 50sinden fazlasının düzenli gebelik kontrolü sağlamada, uzman doktor ve aile ebesine ulaşmada, tuvalet, banyo, duş, kişisel bakım ve vücut bakımına ulaşmada sıkıntı yaşadığı, deprem sonrasında yeterince dinlenemediği belirlendi. Bununla birlikte doğum, doğum sonu dönem ve bebek bakımı hakkında kaygı yaşadıkları ve kaygı düzeylerinin arttığı belirlendi. Sonuç: Depremden etkilenen gebelerin prenatal bakım almada sıkıntı yaşadıkları, doğum ve doğum sonu dönemleri hakkında hissettikleri kaygı puanları ile doğum sonu dönemde bebeklerinin bakımları hakkında hissettikleri kaygı puanlarının ortalamanın üstünde olduğu belirlendi.
