| Summary: | 碩士 === 高雄醫學大學 === 護理學研究所 === 91 === Early mother-newborn attachment is very important for both of them. The children might be abused or neglected result from “poor” relationship. Traditional idea and hospital policy in Taiwan may influence mother-premature newborn attachment development. The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experience related to maternal attachment of premature newborn mothers. Researcher took videotape at feeding time in NICU. The researcher conducted an in-depth interview with premature mothers by showing the videotape. Then verbal recordings were analyzed by using Colaizzi’s phenomenological methodology.
The results were identified into two dimensions: (1) Before the mothers watch the videotape, the attachment experiences of the mothers were categorized into lack of attachment (loss of mothers role) and trying to build attachment by herself (trying to imagine newborn appearance and trying to ensure the infant is healthy) (2) When the mothers watched the videotape, the attachment experience of the mother were categorized into brew of attachment (compare with the family members of the mothers then making the perception of newborn, attention of concern, sense of mismatch, mother’s worry, with all mother’s devotion and to prepare for the future home care of premature newborn).
The results of this study may help professionals to provide health care from cultural viewpoint in the future. They can be applied as references for nurses in their practical care of maternal attachment to their premature newborns and enhancing family-centered nursing.
