Evaluation of Nurse's Awareness regarding Fetus Nursing Practice during Antepartum Hemorrhage

Objective of study: To assess nurses' knowledge of how to provide nursing care to women suffering from antepartum hemorrhage.

Methodology: A descriptive research was conducted from October 28, 2021, to April 20, 2022, utilizing a complete coverage sample of fifty nurses from different units inside the Bint Al-Huda hospital. A pilot study is used to assess the validity and reliability of a questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were employed to assess the data, which was gathered through observational methods and interviews. For the purpose of the study, a questionnaire was prepared and produced, and an interview-based method was used to collect data. The SPSS version of the questionnaire, which had two sections—a tool to evaluate nurses' ability and sociodemographic data—was used to analyze the data.

Results: The largest percentage of participants (44%) had worked in maternity facilities for 6–10 years (11–15), and the oldest age group of nurses (24–25 years old) made up 44% of the total. 50% of the study sample held a diploma, and the majority of nurses (44–91.7%) agreed that placenta previa causes antepartum hemorrhage, while 1-1.9%) disagreed. Although the study that evaluated nurses' awareness was helpful, they still need to increase their comprehension.

Recommendation: According to the findings, a deliberate effort should be made to improve graduate nursing education and awareness of how to provide treatment and attentive monitoring to women with antepartum hemorrhage. This can be accomplished through lectures, workshops, seminars, and training courses.
