Özet:

Midwives take an active role in postnatal care, newborn resuscitation, breastfeeding and breast milk applications of healthy and premature newborns. They make a significant contribution to the reduction of neonatal mortality rates by using up-to-date and accurate information in their practices and in maternal education according to evidence-based practice guidelines in the newborn. It is obvious that evidence-based care provided with guides will be effective in providing better quality healthcare in a shorter time, increasing patient satisfaction and reducing costs. In a study, it was determined that midwives and nurses approved evidence-based work while providing care in the postpartum period, but they applied it at a moderate level, they saw evidence-based work necessary with the increase of the education level of midwives and nurses, and the rate of application increased. In this review, it is aimed to provide up-to-date information to all health professionals, especially midwives-nurses, on evidence-based practices in the postnatal period.
