so bile za sodelovanje predhodno zaprošene preko spletnih forumov in 4. znanstvena in strokovna konferenca z mednarodno udeležbo 79
skupin, kjer so tudi dobile povezavo na spletno anketo. Anketiranje je potekalo
od januarja do junija 2015. Podatki so bili obdelani s pomočjo osnovne deskrip-
tivne statistike. Rezultati: Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da si večina žensk, ki
so v perinatalnem obdobju izgubile otroka, o svoji izkušnji želi govoriti. S stra-
ni zdravstvenih delavcev so bile povečini deležne empatične, spoštljive in spod-
budne obravnave. Kljub temu, da so zdravstveni delavci dovzetni za potrebe
in želje žensk ter spoštujejo njihova čustva, pa je njihovo profesionalno veden-
je v čustveno zahtevnejših situacijah bolj zadržano, kar pa je v nasprotju z žel-
jami in potrebami žensk. K temu včasih prispeva tudi način dela, ki dopušča oz.
spodbuja bolj togo profesionalno vedenje. Diskusija in zaključki: Na področju
perinatalne paliativne zdravstvene nege je pri zdravstvenih delavcih potrebno
še izboljšati poznavanje potreb žalujočih staršev ter jih dodatno usposabljati za
delo z žalujočimi starši. Potrebno pa je tudi odpraviti pomanjkljivosti v sistemu
obravnave, da bi le-ta bil do žalujočih staršev bolj podporen.
Ključne besede: perinatalna smrt, potrebe žalujočih mater, zdravstveni delavci,

Introduction: Perinatal death is an extremely sensitive area in a parents‘ life since
it is considered to be the most painful of losses. From health care profession-
als it requires expert and compassionate treatment that will help parents in the
process of coping with the loss of a child. Health care professionals should be
able to listen and to be receptive to parents‘ needs and not become insensi-
tive to their grief. The purpose of the research was to gain insight into the ex-
periences of women in Slovenian maternity hospitals who have experienced
the loss of a child in the perinatal period. Methods: A quantitative research ap-
proach was based on an online survey convenience sample of women (n = 114)
who have experienced the loss of a child in the perinatal period. Women were
previously requested to participate via online forums and groups where they
also get a link to the online survey. The survey was conducted from January to
June 2015. The data were analyzed using basic descriptive statistics. Results: The
results showed that the majority of women which have experienced perinatal
loss of a child, wants to talk about their experience. Health care profession-
als have been mostly empathic, respectful and supportive to them in the treat-
ment. Despite the fact that health care professionals are sensitive to the needs
and aspirations of women and respect their feelings, their professional behav-
ior in emotionally demanding situations was more reserved, which is against
the wishes and women‘s needs. This is sometimes due to the way of work-
ing, which allows and encourages more rigid professional behavior. Discussion
and Conclusions: In the area of perinatal palliative care there is the need to fur-
ther improve understanding of the needs of grieving parents among health care
professionals and additionally trainings to work with bereaved parents. It is al-
so necessary to overcome the shortcomings in the system of treatment to be
more supportive to grieving parents.
Key words: perinatal death, needs of grieving mothers, health care
professionals, support
