Introduzione: la pandemia da COVID-19 ha causato la trasformazione dei servizi sanitari e dei percorsi assistenziali. Le severe restrizioni per l’accesso alle U.T.I.N. hanno aumentato il rischio di compromissione dell’attaccamento materno-infantile.
Obiettivo: analizzare l’esperienza delle madri di neonati pretermine ricoverati in U.T.I.N. durante la pandemia.
Materiali e Metodi: studio osservazionale sulle madri di neonati pretermine, tra Giugno 2021 e Marzo 2022, in una U.T.I.N. di Napoli. I dati sono stati raccolti durante e dopo la degenza, utilizzando due questionari e quattro scale di valutazione.
Risultati: oltre il 90% delle madri ha presentato un Disturbo Post Traumatico da Stress. Il livello di stress situazionale è risultato elevato in tutti gli indici misurati. Il supporto infermieristico percepito è risultato di 3,57/5. L’attaccamento materno post-natale è risultato di 82,95/93.
Discussione: lo stress e la difficoltà nel gestire le emozioni hanno avuto effetti fortemente negativi sulle madri e sul ruolo genitoriale; tuttavia, le cure infermieristiche ricevute hanno favorito lo sviluppo di un positivo attaccamento con il bambino.
Conclusioni: gli infermieri di assistenza neonatale hanno offerto un efficace supporto umano e professionale alle madri di neonati pretermine. In futuro, sarà necessario implementare modelli organizzativi finalizzati a ridurre al minimo la separazione tra genitori e neonati.
