Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
H1b: There is a difference between the levels of readiness for discharge among puerperal women who received routine and personalized care during the early postpartum period.
H0a: There is no difference between the severity of physical symptoms displayed by puerperal women who received routine and personalized care during the early postpartum period.
H0b: There is no difference between the levels of readiness for discharge among puerperal women who received routine and personalized care during the early postpartum period.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Considering the possibility that participants of the sample might be lost or abandon the study, 120 mothers who met the criteria of inclusion to experimental (E) (n=60) and control (C) (n=60) groups were included and assigned to both groups using the permuted block randomization method.The investigators randomly allocated the participants either to the intervention group (which received the personalized care), or to control group (which received the routine care). The mothers in the experimental group (60) were administered personalized care while those in the control group (60) were given the routine care.
The pre-test procedure was performed when the mothers' statuses were stabilized one hour after the admittance to the maternity service. The post-test procedure was conducted one hour before the discharge. Routine care was provided to the mothers in both groups. Routine care means the standard care service provided to mothers following the birth. The standard postpartum basic care components were determined based on the guides and protocols of the hospital. There are three core components of postpartum care regarding the routine care service.
The data were collected using the ''Personal Information Form'', ''Postpartum Physical Symptom Severity Scale'' and ''Perceived Readiness for Discharge After Birth Scale-Form for New Mothers (PRDABS-FNM)''.
Statistical analyses were performed using IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) Statistics 22 software. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage values) were used to assess the results. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to review the goodness of fit to normal distribution.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Experimental Group
The mothers in the experimental group (60) were administered.
Personalized Care
A clinical and standardized workflow was created for both experimental and control groups. This standardized workflow: consisted of services which included the management of basic medications, routine care regarding the postpartum period, newborn care and health education. After the standardized clinic workflow was formed, a personalized care plan was developed for the experimental group. Each care procedure was shared with the participants in the experimental group. Moreover, all potential alternative care plans were presented to the participants.
Control Group
The mothers in the control group (60) were given the routine care.
No interventions assigned to this group
