Results

Prenatal nursing program tested for fatherhood role adaptation using mixed-methods. EPDS, QMI, PSI-SF collected pre/post-intervention. No significant difference in intervention effects found in 10 intervention and 31 control groups. Participants' specific consideration of fatherhood role behaviors confirmed goal achievement. Final nursing intervention program developed based on study results.

Baseline Characteristics

Subjects in intervention and control groups were first-time expectant fathers who met all inclusion conditions and who and whose wife provided consent to participate in the study as a couple upon receiving explanation. The conditions were as follows: (1) Japanese first-time expectant father; (2) singleton pregnancy; (3) normal course of pregnancy and the fetus; (4) no health issues that interfere with daily lives of the expectant father; (5) living together; (6) fluency in the Japanese language for communication. Furthermore, even after the study was started upon consent provided by the couple, subjects were excluded if: (1) subjects requested to withdraw; (2) subjects presented health issues; or (3) there were issues with the pregnancy, the delivery, and the postpartum course of the wife or child.

Participant flow

Study subjects were chosen with a selection method based on participating facilities and snowball sampling method, and explanations and recruitment in the study were conducted during prenatal education offered at the facilities. Four facilities participated in the study.
In the present study, data for a control group were recorded first as the baseline data, and as soon as enough participants was included, we began collecting data for the intervention group. For the control group, we collected basic information, QMI, and EPDS while wives were in the third trimester. At two months after childbirth, we collected additional basic information, EPDS, QMI, and PSI-SF. For the intervention group, basic information, EPDS, and QMI were collected before the nursing intervention. About a week after the nursing intervention, we examined their own paternal activities that were clarified through the nursing intervention and effective prenatal education that led to awareness of such paternal activities through semi-structured interview. At two months after childbirth, additional basic information and EPDS, QMI, and PSI-SF scores were collected. Through the semi-structured interview, we collected information on actual paternal activities and effective prenatal education that led to the ideas of such paternal activities.

Adverse events

None

Outcome measures

Postpartum depression in the present study was measured using EPDS prepared by Okano, Murata, et al(1996).
For marital satisfaction, we used the QMI (translated by Moroi (1996) to measure goodness of the relationship.
Parenting stress was measured using the PSI-SF.
