| Research Abstract |
This study focused on the development of the perinatal grief experiences among women who experienced a medically-induced miscarriage during the early pregnancy stage.In 2002, researchers reviewed literatures, and analyzed the perinatal bereavement scale and the perinatal grief scale that were widely employed in the U.S.A.The semi-structure interview was developed and 9 women were interviewed. Buffer or facilitation factors of overcoming the perinatal grief experiences included social support from their partners and/or friends, their hobby and/or work whereas obstacle factors were medical practitioners insensitive behavior.
In 2003, the Japanese perinatal grief inventory scale(J-PGIS) was developed based on these results in order toexamine women's perinatal grief experiences.Thirty six women were interviewed with J-PGIS and Zung's depression scale. Cronbach's was 656, and JPGIS was significantly correlated to the depression scale(y=.646, p<.001).Results suggested the importance of the development of a new care program including a peer support and other medical professionals' involvement. Future study is necessary to obtain more data with ethical considerations in order to establish a more reliable and valid scale.
