Abstract

Aim: Increased metabolic needs and hyperactive hormones during pregnancy can cause some psychological changes in pregnant women. In this study, attention levels in third stages of pregnancy are aimed to investigate. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted among women who applied to Amasya Sabuncuoğlu Şerefeddin State Hospital Obstetrics and Gynaecology Clinic between 01.05.2016 and 01.03.2017. The research population consisted of women (n=60) who non-pregnant women in the control (n=30) and 3rd trimester pregnants in the case group (n=30). The Marking Test was used to determine attentional levels. Results: When the data were evaluated, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of the number of targets marked, number of missed targets and number of missed target numbers (p> 0.05). The duration of the scan was significantly longer in Group 2 than Groups 1 (respectively; p = 0.011 for Test 3 and p = 0.014 for Test 4). Conclusions: It’s seen that, the length of time needed for attention got longer in the last days of the pregnancy. For this reason, it is recommended to take this situation into consideration during the last trimester trainings.

Özet

Amaç: Gebelik süresince artan metabolik ihtiyaçlar ve hiperaktif hormonlar gebelerde bazı psikolojik değişikliklere neden olabilirler. Bu çalışma gebeliğin üçüncü trimesterinde dikkat düzeylerinin araştırılması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı nitelikte olan bu araştırma, Amasya Sabuncuoğlu Şerefeddin Devlet Hastanesi Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Polikliniğine 01.05.2016 ile 01.03.2017 tarihleri arasında başvuran kadınlarda gerçekleştirildi. Çalışma gruplarını; kontrol grubu kadınlar (n=30); ve 3. Trimester de ki gebeler (n=30) olmak üzere toplam n=60 kadın oluşturdu. Dikkat düzeylerini belirlemek için İşaretleme Testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: İşaretlenen hedef sayısı, atlanan hedef sayısı ve yanlış işaretlenen hedef sayısı ortalamaları açısından gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmadı (p>0.05). Tarama süresinin gebeliğin son trimesterinde kontrol grubuna göre daha uzun olduğu bulundu (sırasıyla; Test 3 için, p = 0.011 and Test 4 için, p = 0.014). Sonuç: Gebeliğin son dönemlerinde dikkatin sağlanması için gereken sürenin uzadığı görüldü. Son trimesterde uygulanılacak eğitimlerde bu durumun göz önünde bulundurulması önerilmektedir.
