Abstract

Design: A quasi- experimental research design was used at the Labor and delivery room of Mansoura University Hospital. A purposive sample of 106 post abortion women, assigned to intervention group (n=53) received care based on medical professionals' guidelines for care of woman with intrauterine fetal demise and control group (n=53) receive conventional care of abortion. Data were collected using three tools; a structured interview questionnaire, Perinatal Grief Scale and satisfaction scale. Results: The intervention group had lower grief and higher satisfaction score compared to those of the control group (51.58±7.18 vs. 86.04±13.99&108.15 ± 6.29 vs. 47.30±1.88; p < 0.001 respectively). Conclusion and recommendations: Discharge counseling according to medical professionals’ guidelines had a positive effect on alleviating post abortion grief and improving woman’s satisfaction with the provided care. Accordingly, discharge counseling should be an integral part of nursing process after abortion to improve overall quality of care
