Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how shared decision making (SDM), using patient decision aids, affects mothers' feelings of decisional conflict and regret regarding postpartum infant care choices.
- Researchers randomized 196 pregnant women into SDM and classic groups and evaluated their decision-making experiences after delivery using specific scales to measure decisional conflict and regret.
- Results showed that the SDM group felt more confident and sure about their choices compared to the classic group, but there was no significant difference in decisional regret or care choice preferences between the groups.

Due to our lack of an appropriate cooling device, we adjusted the number of cool water bags to successfully perform hypothermic therapy.
