Neutrosophic method to measure humanized care ac-cording to Watson's theory in neonates with cleft lip and palate

Abstract

Cleft lip and palate (CLP) is the most frequently diagnosed craniofacial anomaly in neonates. Determining the humanistic perspective of the care provided to neonates with cleft lip and palate according to Jean Watson's Theory for quality care is very important. The objective of the research was to develop a neutrosophic method to measure humanized care according to Watson's theory in neonates with cleft lip and palate. The research was carried out using a qualitative-quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 22 neonates treated at the Hospital General Puyo and 22 mothers. The results identified that the highest occurrence occurred in the male sex with a total of 14 neonates for 63.4%. 9% were preterm. The main complication in neonates was difficulty feeding, exposing 77.3%. 100% of the mothers felt that the nurse/ro worked to satisfy the need for feeding the newborn; 81.8% of them believed that with the care provided all the physical needs of the newborn were satisfied.
