OBJECTIVE: To describe and compare mothers' and nurses' perceptions of the needs of women experiencing preterm labor. DESIGN: A descriptive/comparative approach was used. SETTING: A tertiary-care teaching facility. PARTICIPANTS: Convenience sample of 14 postpartum mothers and 25 registered nurses. MAIN OUTCOMES: Subjects responded to 56 statements about the needs of women in preterm labor. RESULTS: No statistically significant differences were found between mothers and nurses in their total responses to questionnaire items, but some significant isolated differences existed. CONCLUSION: The nurse who identifies and satisfies these needs is likely to be more effective in meeting nursing-care goals.
