Abstract

               This was a quasi–experimental research aimed to study the effect of an empowerment program and accompanying infographics for implanted contraceptive for repeated adolescent pregnancy prevention. The sample was 80 adolescent postpartum young women at Queen Savang Vadhana Memorial Hospital divided into two groups, half in the control group and half in the experimental. The control group received normal nursing, while the experimental group received the empowerment program according to the stages of Gibson’s concept, including: (1) discovering reality, (2) critical reflection, (3) taking charge, and (4) holding on. The material for the experimental group was the empowerment program and motion graphic titled, “Prevention of Repeated Adolescent Pregnancy”. The tools for data collection were a record sheet for the contraceptive method that the sample used to prevent repeated pregnancy. Chi–square test was used to analyze the data.

                 The results revealed that adolescent postpartum women in the experimental group decided to use contraceptive implants for the prevention of repeated pregnancy at a significantly higher rate than the control group (x2 = 6.054, P< .05), It is therefore recommended that healthcare teams should apply this empowerment program to adolescent postpartum women who decide to use contraceptive implants for reducing the chance of repeated adolescent pregnancy.
