Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This project is a pioneering study in determining the impact of midwife-led safe infant care training for pregnant women on awareness of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and home accidents. Raising awareness and improving women's knowledge about SIDS and home accidents is expected to help reduce preventable infant deaths. If the effectiveness of this training is proven, integrating it into prenatal care programs would be a significant step towards improving maternal and child health.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This research is designed as a randomized controlled experimental study. The research will be conducted in the NST unit located in the Marsa Obstetrics and Gynecology Annex Building of Seyhan State Hospital between the specified dates. It has been determined that 60 participants should be included in the intervention group and 60 in the control group. Primiparous pregnant women ≥32 weeks of gestation will be included in the study. The study will be conducted in two interviews. The pre-test will be administered at the first meeting with the pregnant woman, and the post-test will be administered in the second week postpartum. The independent variables of the study are safe infant care education, and the demographic and obstetric characteristics of the pregnant women. The dependent variables are awareness of sudden infant death syndrome and scores on the home accident awareness scale for mothers. After normality tests are performed, univariate and multivariate analyses appropriate to the data set will be performed, and a significance level of p\<0.05 will be considered. The Statistical Programme for Social Science 22 (SPSS) will be used for data analysis.
