Status Quo of the Postpartum Post-traumatic Growth in Maternity and Its Influencing Factors
Objective To investigate the status quo of the postpartum post-traumatic growth(PTG)and its influen-cing factors,and to provide a reference for the formulation measures to improve maternal postpartum PTG.Methods By the convenience sampling method,201 mothers from 3 tertiary hospitals in Shiyan City were selected and a survey was conducted with the general information questionnaire,the Chinese Post-traumatic Growth Inventory Scale,the Centrality of Event Scale and the Maternal Postnatal Attachment Scale.Results The total score of PTG inventory was(64.39±13.64).The maternal identity core and the mother-infant attachment were positively correlated with the post-partum PTG(r=0.357,0.245,all P<0.01).The mother-infant attachment,the maternal identity core,residence(county or town),monthly family income,long-term care(mother or father)and knowledge of childbirth were the main influencing factors of postpartum PTG(all P<0.05).Conclusions Maternal postpartum PTG is at a high level.The maternal identity core and the mother-infant attachment are closely related to postpartum PTG.Administrators can promote the formation of maternal identity core through the assessment of delivery experience,and take measures to enhance mother-infant attachment,so as to improve the level of postpartum PTG.
