Brief summary
This study was planned to evaluate the effect of standardised nursing care given to women with perinatal loss using the nursing process on perinatal grief, posttraumatic stress and postpartum depression. H01: There is no difference between pre-test, post-test and follow-up tests in terms of perinatal grief scale mean scores in the intervention group. H02: There is no difference between pre-test, post-test and follow-up tests in terms of IES-R mean scores in the intervention group. H03: There is no difference between pre-test, post-test and follow-up tests in terms of EPDS mean scores in the intervention group. H04: There is no difference between the pre-test post-test and follow-up tests in terms of the mean scores of the Complicated Grief Scale in the intervention group. * At the first encounter with women, the mean scores of PMI, IESR and EPDS will be evaluated. * The mean EPDS score will be evaluated on the 10th postpartum day, 1st, 3rd and 6th month. * The mean I-ESR scale score will be evaluated at postpartum 1st, 3rd and 6th month. * At postpartum 1st and 3rd month, the mean score of PMS will be evaluated. * At the postpartum 6th month, the mean score of the PBI scale will be evaluated.
