OPINIONS OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS ABOUT CESAREAN BIRTH IN BURDUR PROVINCE

Year 2021, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 27 - 32, 07.04.2021

Abstract

The rate of births by cesarean section (CS) is on the rise globally. Turkish CS rate ranks first with 53.1% in the world. According to Burdur Provincial Health Directorate 2018 and 2019 statistics, 49.2% normal birth, and 50.8% CS rates are seen. This study was planned as a descriptive study in order to determine the deficiencies and suggestions of midwives working in Burdur about in-service training to reduce the CS rates.
The sociodemographic characteristics, professional experiences, and participation in in-service training programs of the 112 midwives who were questioned, and their personal opinions and suggestions were evaluated. Most of the midwives participating in the study are between the ages of 39-45 (n = 46, 41.1%) and their duration of professional experience is mostly 20 years and over (n = 69, 61.6%). While 46.4% of the participants find the cesarean birth-related training organized by the Provincial Health Directorate sufficient for them, 52.7% think that the training should be improved. When their opinions about the training given by the Ministry of Health were evaluated, 60% of the participants stated that the training was sufficient, while 40% stated that they should be improved.
We think that; reaching all personnel about multidisciplinary in-service training on issues such as counseling in prenatal care, providing maternity services and making appropriate interventions for safe delivery; increasing the practices to gain awareness of healthcare personnel and pregnant women; further during these practices, collaborating with the media, community organizations and associations will be effective in reducing CS rates.
