Abstract:

ABSTRACT Assessment of Fathers' Postnatal Sense of Security and Depression Situations Aim: The research was carried out to assess the fathers' postnatal sense of security and depression situations. Material and Method: The research was carried out in the Postpartum/Cesarean services of a maternity hospital in Ordu between 01 July 2016 and 31 December 2017 with 335 fathers, whose wife gave birth. The data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Fathers' Postnatal Sense of Security Scale and Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale. Percentage of distributions, mean, t test, one-way variance analysis and Pearson Correlation Analysis were used for evaluating the data. Result: The mean of the total score obtained from the FPSSS is 37.78 ± 7.25 and the mean of the total score obtained from the EPDS is 6.88±4.13. It is determined that there is a weak relationship between the postpartum depression status of the father and the postnatal sense of security in the negative direction(p 0.05). Moreover, it was also found that the difference between the monthly income of the fathers and EPDS scores is statistically significant (p 0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that fathers' postnatal safety feelings were at good level and fathers did not have postpartum depression. Additionally, it was determined that fathers' descriptive features did not affect postnatal safety feelings and postpartum depression of fathers. As the fathers' postnatal feelings increased, the depression symptoms decreased. Keywords: Fathers, depression, postnatal, midwife, sense of security
