Abstract

Incorrect perineal care can cause postpartum infection. This is due to the condition of the perineal wound area which is moist, thus supporting the growth of bacteria. Infections resulting from poor care lead to complications such as bladder infections and infections of the birth canal. Efforts are being made to prevent the risk of infection by taking good care of the perineal wound so that it can speed up the healing of the perineal wound. This study aims to determine the attitude of postpartum mothers regarding perineal wound care in the Midwife Independent Practice in 2022. The study used a descriptive method with a total population of 122 mothers giving birth for 6 months. The sample in this study were 30 postpartum women with perineal injuries in June-July 2022, sampling technique with Total Sampling Method. The results of the research on the healing time of perineal wounds in postpartum mothers showed that 63.33% of respondents had good knowledge, and 76.67% of respondents had a positive attitude. From this research, an active role is needed for community health service units, especially midwives' independent practice to provide perineal wound care counseling to postpartum mothers and check stitches at 1 week of postpartum period to the midwife.
