Pnm-4: Emotional Responses to Infertility. Nursing Interventions
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Background: One third of the women who sought infertility treatment had an impaired psychological well-being. The unfulfilled desire of millions of infertile couples worldwide to have their own biological children results in emotional distress. Infertility has mental, social, and reproductive consequences. Materials and Methods: In this review article, electronic searches were undertaken in PubMed, Scholar Google and up to date since 2007. Results: Couples and individuals vary in their responses to the infertility experience. Psychological interventions and improvements in the organization of care are essential to positively impact on outcome during diagnosis and treatment in this group of women. Appropriate nursing interventions are suggested for each specific stage. It can be useful to take cultural factors into account in evaluating the mental health of infertile women. Psychosocial interventions are more effective in reducing negative affect. Proper psychological care and counseling should be an integral part of infertility management. Conclusion: The need for additional and continuous training for nurses employed in fertility settings is paramount. Health-care personnel treating women with fertility problems should be aware of the emotional response of their patients in order to recognize and treat possible psychiatric morbidity. It is crucial to mandate psychiatric counseling in all fertility centers in order to diagnose and treat infertile patients with psychiatric disorders.
