الملخص
Female infertility is considered a crisis in women’s life and affects different aspects
of their quality of life. Infertile women need to improve health-related behaviors and sustain the
appropriate quality of life through continuous education. Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the
effect of the application of a continuous care model on health-related behaviors and quality of life
among infertile women. Design: A quasi-experimental design was utilized. Setting: The study was
conducted at the obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinic and In vitro fertilization ( IVF ) unit at
Benha University Hospital. Sampling: A convenient sample of (80) infertile women attended the
previously mentioned settings and was divided equally into control and intervention group. Tools:
Three tools were used for data collection; a structured interviewing schedule, Health-related
behaviors, and a quality of life (QOL) tool. Results: present a highly statistically significant
improvement was revealed in the intervention group compared with the control group after
implementing the continuous care model (p ≤0.001). Additionally, after the implementation of the
continuous care model, the mean ±SD of total quality of life score in the intervention group was
higher than the control group, which was (76.13 ± 8.36 versus 56.68 ± 3.92) respectively. Also,
there was a highly statistically difference in the total quality of life scores of the intervention group
more than the control group (p ≤0.001).
