摘要

背景怀孕和分娩是发生尿失禁（UI）的独立危险因素。虽然尿失禁在孕期很常见，但这一健康问题大多被孕妇忽视。妊娠期尿失禁的高发病率及其对产后的影响证明，有必要确定孕妇对尿失禁预防和管理的知识和态度。有必要提高孕妇对尿崩症的认识，开展教育和咨询，并将盆底肌肉训练纳入产前护理服务。本研究旨在确定孕妇对尿崩症的认识及其在此方面的知识和态度。方法本横断面研究于 2020 年 3 月至 9 月期间在土耳其一所大学医院对 255 名孕妇进行了调查。采用尿失禁知识问卷（PIKQ）和尿失禁态度量表（UIAS）收集数据。结果孕期尿失禁发生率为 51%。PIKQ 的平均得分为（8.07±2.64）分，只有 6.3% 的受试者正确回答了有关尿失禁的所有问题。UIAS 的平均得分为（42.33±3.48）分。结果表明，虽然妊娠期尿崩症很普遍，但孕妇对尿崩症的了解程度很低。近一半的孕妇需要相关信息。她们往往对尿崩症表现出积极的态度，但不足以改善其寻求健康的行为。应制定策略提高孕妇对子宫内膜异位症的认识，并鼓励她们在产前检查时采取预防/管理子宫内膜异位症的保健行为。

Awareness of urinary incontinence in pregnant women as a neglected issue: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundPregnancy and labor are independent risk factors for the development of urinary incontinence (UI). Although UI is common during pregnancy, it is a health problem mostly neglected by pregnant women. The high prevalence of UI in pregnancy and its effects on the postpartum period justifies the need to determine the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women regarding the prevention and management of UI. It is necessary to increase the awareness of pregnant women about UI, educate, consultant, and integrate pelvic floor muscle training into prenatal care services. This study aims to determine the UI awareness of pregnant women and their knowledge and attitudes in this context.Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted with 255 pregnant women in a university hospital in Turkey between March and September 2020. Data were collected using the Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ) and Urinary Incontinence Attitude Scale (UIAS). Results The UI prevalence was 51% during pregnancy. The mean score of PIKQ was 8.07±2.64, and only 6.3% of participants correctly answered all the questions regarding UI. The mean score of UIAS was 42.33±3.48. A positive correlation was found between UI knowledge and attitude score (r=0.35, p=0.00).ConclusionsThe results showed that although UI is prevalent during pregnancy, pregnant women’s knowledge of UI is poor. Nearly half of pregnant women need information. They tend to display positive attitudes towards UI, but not sufficient to improve their health-seeking behavior. Strategies should be developed to increase pregnant women’s awareness of UI and to encourage them health-seeking behaviors for the prevention/management of UI during prenatal visits.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
