Intervention Method: One-and-a-half-day program combining education, role plays and relaxation. Methods: Participants were 11 participants, and of these 8 gave valid responses to our questionnaire. The scores of the participants on a facilitator intervention skills scale and on a scale of facilitator skills to cope with difficult situations were compared before and after the course, using SPSS16 for windows. In addition, the participants’ impressions before and after the course were analyzed qualitatively and inductively. Results: Seven of the 16 items on the facilitator intervention skills scale and 7 of the 12 items on the facilitator skills to cope with difficult situations improved the participants after the facilitator training. All participants indicated that they could understand the lectures. Their impressions changed from anxiety and enthusiasm to pleasure of learning and discovery of specific problems. Conclusion: The results suggested that the educational method created in this study, with emphasis on role-playing, is useful.展开更多

Data were collected through a semi-structured interview. <strong>Results:</strong> The data of experiences during pregnancy of Mrs. A comprised 20 codes, 5 categories, and 11 subcategories. The 5 categories were [abnormalities in the delicate body], [difficulty in blood glucose control for safe childbirth], [the burden of visiting both obstetrics] and [internal medicine departments], and [hope for safe childbirth]. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The categories extracted in this study included terms that suggested negative experiences, such as “abnormality”, “difficulty”, “inconvenience”, and “burden”. Mrs. A might have used these negative terms due to the difficulties in controlling her blood glucose levels.展开更多
