Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a nursing approach based on Meleis' Transition Theory on postpartum depression, maternal self-efficacy and breastfeeding self-efficacy in women who gave birth preterm. The randomized controlled study was conducted in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The study sample consisted of preterm women who volunteered to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria. A training guide was prepared within the scope of the nursing approach based on Transition Theory. After the theoretical training in the second week after delivery, the intervention group received counseling through face-to-face and telephone individual interviews, while the control group received routine care only in the hospital. Scales were administered to women in both groups at the first interview, 2 weeks later and on day 42.
