최근 조기진통의 원인, 진단 및 치료에 대한 광범위한 연구와 집중적 신생아 관리로 신생아 사망률의 감소가 있었으나 조산의 빈도의 감소는 없다. 현재 사용하고 있는 조기진통의 3차적 치료인 자궁수축억제제, glucocorticoids와 항생제는 조기진통의 치료에 효과가 있으나 미숙아로 오는 신생아 이환과 사망을 상당히 줄일 수 있을 만큼의 효과는 없다. 그러므로 효과적인 조산의 이차적 관리가 중요하다. 따라서 여러 가지 조기진통 위험의 진단적 감시를 사용, 조산의 위험인자를 조기 발견하여 여러 가지 중재적 방법으로 적극적인 치료로 조기진통 예방에 노력해야 한다. 조기진통과 조산에 관련된 여러 문제들은 앞으로도 지속적으로 연구되어 할 전문 분야이며 국가적 지원으로 조산 방지를 위한 예방 프로그램의 개발도 고려되어야 할 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of abdominal breathing on state anxiety, stress and tocolytic dosage for pregnant women in preterm labor. Methods: The participants were 60 pregnant women in preterm labor who were hospitalized from April to July, 2009. Thirty participants were assigned to the experimental group and 30 to the control group. None of them had any other complications except preterm labor. The modified Mason's breathing technique was used with the experimental group 3 times a day for 3 days. Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire and chart review, and analyzed with the SPSS 13.0 WIN program. Results: "State anxiety of the experimental group will be lower than that of the control group" was supported. "Stress of the experimental group will be lower than that of the control group" was supported. "The Ritodrine dosage for the experimental group will be lower than that of the control group" was supported. "The Atosiban dosage for the experimental group will be lower than that of the control group" was supported. Conclusion: These results indicate that abdominal breathing is an effective nursing intervention for pregnant women in preterm labor.

임신주령과 진통 및 분만의 진행정도에 따른 정상 임부의 혈청 CRP치의 동태를 파악하기 위해서 1992년 3월 1일 부터 1993년 8월 31일 까지 18개월간 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 산부인과에서 임신 20주에서 44주 사이의 건강한 임부 521명을 대상으로 혈청 CRP치를 측정하여 임신 주령과 진통의 유무, 양막의 파열여부 및 분만의 진행정도에 따라 비교 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 혈청 CRP치 0.8mg/dl 이상과 2.0mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도는 각각 12%(61/521)와 4%(22/521)이었다. 2. 임신주령 37주이하의 만삭전 임부군과 38주 이상의 만삭 임부군, 양막 파열 임부군과 비파열 임부군, 자궁경관 개대 3cm이하 임부군과 4cm 이상 임부군의 비교에서 혈청 CRP치 0.8mg/dl 이상과 2.0mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 3. 진통이 없는 임부군과 진통중인 임부군의 비교에서 혈청 CRP치 0.8mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도는 각각 5.93%와 13.73%로 통계적으로 유의한 차이(p<0.05)가 있었으나 혈청 CRP치 2.0mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도는 차이가 없었다. 4. 임신주령 37주 이하의 만삭전 임부군에서 혈청 CRP치 0.8mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도는 진통중인 임부군이 23.64%로 진통이 없는 임부군의 4.69% 보다 현저히 높았으며(p<0.001), 혈청 CRP치 2.0mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도도 진통중인 임부군과 진통이 없는 임부군이 각각 12.73%와 3.13%로 통계적으로 유의성 있는 차이(p<0.05)가 있었다. 임신주령 38주 이상의 만삭 임부군에서 진통이 없는 임부군과 진통중인 임부군을 비교하여 혈청 CRP치 0.8mg/dl 이상과 2.0mg/dl 이상을 나타낸 임부의 빈도는 통계적으로 유의성 있는 차이가 없었다. 이상 본 연구의 결과를 종합하면 임부의 감염을 조기 예측하는데 있어 기왕에 조기진통 임부에서 임상적 감염의 지표로 이용되고 있는 혈청 CRP치 2.0mg/dl은 진통중인 만삭임부에서도 양막파열 여부와 분만의 진행정도와 무관하게 유용한 것으로 추정되며, 조기진통 임부의 처치시 혈청 CRP치가 0.8mg/bl 이상인 경우 임부의 불현성 감염을 의심하여야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the types of the causal perception of preterm labor. Method: The research design was a Q-Methodological Approach. Thirty four selected Q-statements from 32 participants were classified into a shape of normal distribution using a 9 point scale. The collected data was analyzed using a QUANL PC program. Result: Three types of causal perception for research subjects were identified. Type I is negligence of causality; Type II is recognition of causality by preceding factors. Type III is recognition of causality by psychological stress. Conclusion: This study found that there are differences in perceiving causes of preterm labor. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a tailored nursing intervention depending on these types.

Purpose: Preterm birth is increasing, and obstetric nurses should have the competency to provide timely care. Therefore, training is necessary in the maternal nursing practicum. This study aimed to investigate the effects of practice education using a preterm-labor assessment algorithm on preterm labor-related knowledge and clinical practice confidence in senior nursing students. Methods: A pre-post quasi-experimental design with three groups was used for 61 students. The preterm-labor assessment algorithm was modified into three modules from the preterm-labor assessment algorithm by March of Dimes. We evaluated preterm labor-related knowledge, clinical practice confidence, and educational satisfaction. Data were analyzed with the paired t-test and repeated-measures analysis of variance. Results: The practice education using a preterm-labor assessment algorithm significantly improved both preterm labor-related knowledge and clinical practice confidence (paired t=-7.17, p<.001; paired t=-5.51, p<.001, respectively). The effects of the practice education using a preterm-labor assessment algorithm on knowledge lasted until 8 weeks but decreased significantly at 11 and 13 weeks after the program, while the clinical practice confidence significantly decreased at 8 weeks post-program. Conclusion: The practice education using a preterm-labor assessment algorithm was effective in improving preterm labor-related knowledge and clinical practice confidence. The findings suggest that follow-up education should be conducted at 8 weeks, or as soon as possible thereafter, to maintain knowledge and clinical confidence, and the effects should be evaluated.

Purpose: The Purpose of this study was to investigate relationships between maternal fetal attachment and state anxiety for pregnant women in preterm labor. Methods: The subjects consisted of 56 pregnant women in preterm labor on C hospital. The data were analyzed using SPSS computer program that includes descriptive statistics, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe? test and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Age distribution was 30~39 years of age. Mean score of maternal fetal attachment was 91.50. The group whose planned pregnancy was highest showed higher maternal fetal attachment. The primigravida group showed high maternal fetal attachment. Most frequently practiced attachment item was: "I'm really looking forward to seeing what the baby looks like". The next was was: "I enjoy watching my tummy jiggle as the baby kicks inside". There was no difference in degree of anxiety by general and obstetrical characteristics. There was statistically significant of negative correlation between maternal fetal attachment and state anxiety for pregnant women with preterm labor. Conclusion: Findings provide useful information for further studies in reducing anxiety and intervention programs relating to pregnancy and preterm labor. To increase maternal fetal attachment of pregnant women with preterm labor, it is necessary to standardize prenatal education program.

Purpose: This study was to identify the relationship between physical suffering, emotional state, and nursing needs of pregnant women in preterm labor and the difference depending on general characteristics. Methods: The participants in this descriptive survey, selected by convenience sampling, were 126 pregnant women who were hospitalized after being diagnosed with preterm labor at 3 university hospitals. Results: The level of personal hygiene was assessed in physical suffering, level of fear was assessed by the emotional state, and level of perterm labor was assessed by the nursing cares. In the analysis, physical suffering, emotional state, and nursing needs in the subjects all showed a significantly positive correlation. Differences in physical suffering, emotional state, and nursing needs depending on general characteristics were as follows; age, job, family type, economic condition, smoking, drinking admission days, previous delivery type, and artificial insemination. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the nurse should focus on the domain of personal hygiene, and teaching contents specific for abdominal breathing exercises for relieving the women's fear and anxiety should be added.

Purpose: To identify risk factors for premature birth among premature obstetric labor women. Methods: Participants were 129 hospitalized women who were diagnosed with potential premature obstetric labor with 20 weeks to 37 weeks of gestation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, $x^2$ test, t-test, and binary logistic regression. Results: Of 129 women, 78(60.5%) gave premature birth and 51 (39.5%) gave full-term birth. Risk factors for premature birth were education level (${\leq}$bachelor's degree), abnormal bowel condition (constipation or diarrhea), time firstly diagnosed with a premature obstetric labor (below 28 weeks of pregnancy), and multiple pregnancy. There were also increased risks of premature birth for participants with high level of anxiety and high level of prenatal stress. In social support, there was an increased risk of premature birth for participants with low level of social support. Conclusion: Prenatal nursing programs should consider not only psychosocial factors such as anxiety, prenatal stress, and social support, but also some general and obstetric factors such as education level, abnormal bowel condition, time firstly diagnosed with a premature obstetric labor, and multiple pregnancy to increase maternal and child health.
