Dojenje in pomen podpornih skupin : diplomsko delo

Krajnc, Klementina (author), Stanek Zidarič, Tita (mentor)

Uvod: dojenje je naraven, zdrav in najenostavnejši način prehranjevanja novorojenčkov in dojenčkov. Da dojenje uspešno teče in da sta mati in otrok zadovoljna, je potrebno veliko truda, ustreznih informacij in podpore,predvsem pa ustrezne pomoči. Za to je še posebej pomembno, da matere vedo, da se lahko obrnejo po pomoč, ki jo v Sloveniji lahko dobijo v profesionalni ali laični obliki. Namen: namen diplomske naloge je ugotoviti poznavanje podpornih skupin s strani mater in tudi ugotoviti pomen podpornih skupin za dojenje in vlogo podpornih skupin, ko se matere srečajo s težavami pri dojenju in kadar pridejo do občutka neprepričanosti o svoji sposobnosti za dojenje. Metode dela: uporabljena je deskriptivna metoda kvantitativnega raziskovanja in kavzalno –neeksperimentalna metoda empiričnega raziskovanja. Za zbiranje podatkov je bil uporabljen anketni vprašalnik. Rezultati: v raziskavi je sodelovalo 203 anketirank, ki so imele vsaj enega otroka. Največ je bilo starih od 26 do 30 let. Večina (94 %) jih ve,kam se obrniti po pomoč v primeru težav pri dojenju. Dobro so jim poznane skupine za podporo dojenju, ki jih najdejo preko spleta, patronažne medicinske sestre in svetovalke za dojenje pri mednarodni organizaciji za dojenje La Leche League International. Največkrat so se anketiranke po pomoč obrnile zaradi občutka, da imajo premalo mleka. Ko so anketiranke iskale pomoč, so bile podporne skupine dobro odzivne (91 %), prav tako so bile anketiranke (74 %) z dobljenimi informacijami zadovoljne. Anketiranke so mnenja, da bi bilo dobro različne skupine oziroma možne oblike pomoči pri dojenju bodočim staršem predstaviti v okviru šol za bodoče starše in kasneje ponovno v porodnišnicah. Razprava in zaključek: rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da matere poznajo podporne skupine za dojenje, vendar jih nekatere izmed njih poznajo v manjšem številu. Ker rezultati dokazujejo, da podpora pri dojenju vpliva na trajanje dojenja, bi morali v ginekoloških ambulantah, v šolah za bodoče starše in porodnišnicah, kjer se zdravstveni strokovnjaki največ srečujejo z nosečnicami,vložiti več truda v to, da bi ženske informirali o vseh obstoječih podpornih skupinah pri nas, na katere se lahko obrnejo v primeru težav pri dojenju.

• Title: Breastfeeding and the importance of support groups : diploma work

Abstract

Introduction: Breastfeeding is a natural, healthy and allegedly the easiest way of feeding a newborn or a baby. For breastfeeding to be successful and for a mother and the child to be satisfied, it takes a great deal of effort, relevant information and support, and, above all, the right assistance. For this reason, it is especially important that mothers know where they can turn to get some assistance. In Slovenia, they can receive either professional or non-professional assistance. Purpose:The purpose of the thesis is to determine the knowledge of support groups by mothers. The purpose is also to identify the importance of breastfeeding support teams and the role of support groups when mothers encounter breastfeeding problems and when they experience a feeling of uncertainty about their breastfeeding ability. Methods: The descriptive method of quantitative research is used as well as the causal non-experimental method of empirical research. A questionnaire was used to collect the data. Results: The survey involved 203 respondents who had at least one child. Most of them were aged 26 to 30. The majority (94%) knows where to turn for help in the event of breastfeeding problems. They are well acquainted with breastfeeding support groups which can be found online with community nurses and with breastfeeding consultants from the international breastfeeding organization La Leche League.Most often they turned to help because of the feeling they lack milk. When women sought help, the support groups were well-responsive (91%), and the respondents with the information received were satisfied with 74%. Respondents are of the opinion that it would be good for different groups or possible forms of breastfeeding assistance to be presented to future parents in the framework of schools for future parents and later in the maternity wards.Discussion and conclusion:The results of the study showed that women are familiar with breastfeeding support groups, but some of them are known in a small number. As the results demonstrate that breastfeeding support affects the duration of breastfeeding, more effort should be put in gynecologic clinics, in schools for future parents and maternity hospitals where health professionals are most likely to meet pregnant women in informing women about all existing supportive groups with us, which can be contacted in the event of a breastfeeding problem.
