Informedness of primiparas about the care of newborn.
KRATOCHVÍLOVÁ, Eva
The topic of the bachelor thesis is the informedness of primiparas about a newborn child care. The theoretical part of the thesis explains terms physiological newborn child, his/her postnatal adaptation and basic care of a newborn child. It describes the basic acts that the nurses aim to teach all mothers in hospital, such as changing nappies, bathing, caring of the umbilical scar and handling a newborn child. It also describes the equipment needed for basic care of a child. The practical part of the thesis raised five objectives and five hypotheses. The first objective was to compare the level of informedness of primiparas in two hospitals in the Czech Republic (Oblastní nemocnice Příbram, a.s. and Nemocnice České Budějovice, a.s.). The hypothesis that the informedness of primiparas in Oblastní nemocnice Příbram, a.s. is lower has not been confirmed. The other objectives were to ascertain the level of informedness of primiparas about bathing techniques, treatment of the umbilical scar and handling a new-born child, and the sources from which the primiparas obtain most information. The hypothesis that primiparas have sufficient information about bathing techniques, care of the umbilical scar and the ways how to take a new-born child from the cot and how to hold the child correctly, and the hypothesis that they obtain most information from the nurses in hospital and, when being out of hospital, from the Internet have been confirmed. The results of the research are presented in charts and compared with technical literature in the respective chapter. The bachelor thesis could serve as a source of information both for students and for mothers-to-be.
