The experience of pregnant women in contexts of vulnerability of prenatal primary nursing care: a descriptive interpretative qualitative study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Prenatal primary nursing care contributes to improving the health outcomes of mothers and unborn babies. Some pregnant women in contexts of vulnerability experience prenatal nursing care in a positive way, while some do not. A better understanding of factors influencing this experience could help improve prenatal nursing care. The aim of this study was to describe factors influencing the prenatal primary nursing care experience of pregnant women in contexts of vulnerability.

Methods

Thorne's qualitative interpretative descriptive approach was used. Twenty-four pregnant women in contexts of vulnerability were recruited in local community service centers in Quebec, Canada, using purposive and snowball samplings, to carry out a semi-structured interview. Participants
