Abstract

<p>Objective: This study aimed to shed light on the hospitalization experience of high-risk pregnant women transferred from the MFICU to the maternity ward.</p><p>Method: Adopting qualitative and descriptive research design, we conducted semi-structured interviews with nine mothers admitted to the MFICU and then transferred to the maternity ward.</p><p>Results: The hospitalization experience of high-risk pregnant women transferred from the MFICU to the maternity ward before the transfer was described as follows: “unable to relax due to difficulty of sorting the mind out about the critical situation,” “perceiving critical pregnant women in the same room through the curtain and spending time quietly,” “feeling a sense of security with nursing staff watching over them by patient’s side,” “spending the time conscious of a transfer to maternity ward from MFICU that will come someday,” “emotional turmoil toward the transfer without feeling improvement in their condition,” and “anxiety about whether they can adapt to the new environment.” After being transferred to the maternity ward, their experience was expressed as follows: “refraining from monopolizing the nursing staff,” “confusion and anxiety due to the difference between the MFICU and the maternity ward,” “camaraderie and mutual support borne from interaction with fellow pregnant women,” and “stability of feelings due to the formation of trusting relationships with the nursing staff.”</p><p>Conclusion: High-risk pregnant women who transferred from the MFICU to the maternity ward had positive interaction experiences due to the transfer, despite increased stress.</p>
