Aim of research: investigate the Effect of educational program based on Levine's conservation model on the quality of life of infertile women. Research design: A Quasi- experimental study (study and control group) was employed to complete the objective of the investigation. Research setting: An obstetrics and gynecological outpatient clinic affiliated with Benha University hospital. Research sample: A purposive sample of 90 women with infertility was used which divided equally into two groups (each 45 women). Tools of data collection: Four tools were employed tool(I ) A Structured interviewing questionnaire, tool (II)Evaluation infertile women's knowledge concerning infertility, tool (III)Visual Analogue Scale for Fatigue to assess infertile women fatigue, Tool (IV) Fertility life quality questionnaire to assess life quality of infertile women. Results: A significantly significant difference was noted between study and control groups regarding knowledge, fatigue, energy, and quality of life pertaining to infertility following the application of Levine's conservation model p(<0.001 )and there was greatly statistically significant positive connection between total quality of life, total knowledge , total fatigue and total energy in both study and control groups at pre , post and follow up intervention phases(p < 0.001). Conclusion: Levine's conservation model had a positive impact on life quality of infertile women as well as knowledge, energy and fatigue. Recommendations: Designing health educational program for infertile women to improve and update the most current knowledge, practices and life quality. | ||
