The development a care model for pregnant women with urine methamphetamine test results. Thatphanom Crown Prince Hospital.

Abstract

     This Research and Development aimed to study the model and outcomes of caring for pregnant women with methamphetamine test results in urine at Thatphanom Crown Prince Hospital. The sample consisted of 20 pregnant women with methamphetamine test results in urine Purposive Sampling. The single sample group measured before and after (One-group, Pretest-Posttest Design). The instruments used for data collection included personal data, the ASSIST Version 3.1 screening form, the ST-5 stress assessment form, knowledge about drug use in pregnant women, and the urine methamphetamine test results. Data analysis: personal data, the ASSIST Version 3.1 screening form, and the urine methamphetamine test results using the count, percentage, the ST-5 stress assessment form, and knowledge about drug use in pregnant women. The analysis used the mean and standard deviation. Compare before and after participating in the activity using Pair t-test statistics.

     The research results were after participating in the activity, the relevance scores for specific substances, including tobacco products, alcohol beverages, cannabis, amphetamine stimulants, kratom leaves, and kratom leaf decoction, were at a moderate level. Sedatives or sleeping pills and hallucinogens were at a low level. The stress assessment result (ST-5) before participating in the activity had an average score of 4.85 (SD=4.04), which was at a level suspected of having stress problems. After participating in the activity, the average score was 2.10 (SD=2.04), which decreased to a level without stress, with a statistically significant difference at the .05 level. Knowledge score on drug use during pregnancy Before participating in the activity, the average knowledge score was 8.00 (SD=2.15). After participating in the activity, the average knowledge score increased to 9.90 (SD=.44), with a statistically significant difference at the .05 level. The results of the urine methamphetamine test in pregnant women before and after participating in the activity showed that methamphetamine in the urine decreased from 100 percent to 15 percent.
