Abstract

Background: Physical activity could decrease the odds of pregnant women at high risk for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) developing GDM. Physical activity self-efficacy was the key predictor of physical activity. This study aimed to examine physical activity self-efficacy and identify its predictors among pregnant women at high risk for GDM in mainland China.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Zhengzhou, China, from October 2021 to February 2022. Two hundred fifty-two pregnant women at high risk for GDM completed the Pregnancy Physical Activity Self-efficacy Scale, the Social Support for Physical Activity Scale, the Knowledge of Physical Activity Questionnaire, the 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, and a socio-demographic data sheet. Multiple linear regression was used.

Results: Chinese pregnant women at high risk for GDM reported a moderate level of physical activity self-efficacy. The best-fit regression analysis revealed four predictors. Social support for physical activity was the strongest predictor, followed by knowledge of physical activity, intention to do physical activity, and anxiety symptoms.

Conclusion: The study found that Chinese pregnant women at high risk for GDM had a moderate level of physical activity self-efficacy, which had 4 predictors. Healthcare professionals should make efforts to enhance pregnant women's social support, knowledge, and intention to do physical activity and decrease their anxiety symptoms to improve their physical activity self-efficacy.

中国妊娠期糖尿病高危孕妇身体活动自我效能的横断面研究
背景:体育活动可以降低妊娠期糖尿病(GDM)高危孕妇发展为GDM的几率。体力活动自我效能感是体力活动的主要预测因子。本研究旨在探讨中国大陆GDM高危孕妇的身体活动自我效能感及其预测因素。方法:于2021年10月至2022年2月在中国郑州进行横断面研究。252名GDM高危孕妇完成了妊娠体育活动自我效能感量表、体育活动社会支持量表、体育活动知识问卷、7项广泛焦虑障碍量表、爱丁堡产后抑郁量表和社会人口统计数据表。采用多元线性回归。结果:中国GDM高危孕妇报告了中等水平的身体活动自我效能感。最佳拟合回归分析揭示了四个预测因子。对体育活动的社会支持是最强的预测因子,其次是体育活动知识、体育活动意图和焦虑症状。结论:本研究发现中国GDM高危孕妇的身体活动自我效能为中等水平,有4个预测因子。医护人员应努力提高孕妇的社会支持、运动知识和运动意愿,减少孕妇的焦虑症状,提高孕妇的运动自我效能感。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
