Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between social support, pregnancy stress, and anxiety of pregnant women and to determine their effect on health-related quality of life. Methods: A total of 202 pregnant women participated in this study. The collected data were analyzed by the frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis using the STATA/IC 15.1 program. Results: As a result of this study, the major factors affecting the health-related quality of life of pregnant women were identified as anxiety, educational level, social support, and marital satisfaction. Social support has a positive effect on the health-related quality of life of pregnant women ( β =0.27, p ＜ .001), but anxiety had a negative effect ( β = − 0.56, p ＜ .001). Conclusions: When planning nursing interventions to improve the health-related quality of life of pregnant women, strategies for lowering the anxiety and improving the social support of pregnant women should be considered.

社会支持、妊娠压力和焦虑对孕妇健康相关生活质量的影响

背景:本研究的目的是确定社会支持、妊娠压力和孕妇焦虑之间的关系，并确定它们对健康相关生活质量的影响。方法:202名孕妇参与本研究。采用STATA/IC 15.1程序对收集到的资料进行频率和百分比、均值和标准差、独立t检验、方差分析、Pearson相关系数和分层多元回归分析。结果:本研究确定影响孕妇健康相关生活质量的主要因素为焦虑、受教育程度、社会支持和婚姻满意度。社会支持对孕妇健康相关生活质量有正向影响(β =0.27, p < 0.001)，而焦虑对孕妇健康相关生活质量有负向影响(β = - 0.56, p < 0.001)。结论:在制定改善孕妇健康相关生活质量的护理干预措施时，应考虑降低孕妇焦虑和改善孕妇社会支持的策略。
