Objective: To explore the effects of psychological care interventions on anxiety and pregnancy outcomes in mid-pregnancy pregnant women.
Methods: One hundred and twenty pregnant women in mid-pregnancy admitted to the obstetrics outpatient clinic of our hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected. They were divided into conventional nursing intervention group (n = 60, conventional nursing intervention) and psychological nursing intervention group (n = 60, application of psychological nursing intervention) according to the nursing intervention method. The anxiety level, delivery outcome, and quality of life of pregnant women in both groups were recorded.
Results: Hamilton Anxiety Inventory (HAMA) scores were lower in the psychological care intervention group than in the conventional care intervention group (P < 0.05); The spontaneous delivery rate of pregnant women in the psychological care intervention group was higher than that of the conventional care intervention group, with statistically significant differences between the groups (P < 0.05); The physical life, somatic function, psychological function, social function, and overall quality of life scores were higher in the psychological nursing intervention group than in the conventional nursing intervention group aftercare (P < 0.05); The total satisfaction of nursing care was 98.00% in the psychological nursing intervention group, which was higher than that of 72.00% in the conventional nursing intervention group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: By implementing psychological care, it can effectively reduce the adverse emotions of pregnant women in the middle of pregnancy, significantly decrease the cesarean delivery rate, improve the natural delivery rate, enhance the quality of maternal life, and increase the satisfaction of nursing services.
