were recruited from the maternity wards of one medical centre

in northern Taiwan between January 2013 and April 2015. The

control group received routine nursing care. The experimental

group received support interventions, which included an inter-

view, distraction methods and assistance with daily living needs.

Groups were evaluated with the Beck anxiety inventory, Edinburgh

Postnatal Depression Scale and at admission and 2 weeks of hospi-

talization.

Results

There were no significant differences between groups

for demographics, obstetric characteristics, or birth outcomes. For

the control group, anxiety and depression scores increased signif-

icantly decreased 2 weeks after hospitalization. The intervention

group had a small, but significant, increase in anxiety and no sig-

nificant change in depression at 2weeks. Participants who received

2weeks of support intervention had significantly lower anxiety and

depression scores than the control group.

Conclusions

Providing interventional support could reduce anx-

iety and depression for women with preterm labour during

hospitalization.
