摘要

背景:产前保健(ANC)是初级卫生保健服务的一个分支,可在全球范围内普遍获得,以促进孕产妇和新生儿的积极结局。鼓励孕妇在诊断出怀孕后立即进行ANC。早期ANC允许进行一系列诊断程序和调查,以排除早期、潜在和实际的妊娠风险。然而,ANC的迟发率仍然很高。目的:根据茨瓦内地区选定的产前诊所孕妇的观念,探讨和描述影响产前后期预约的因素。环境:研究在Tshwane地区两个选定的向公众提供ANC的设施中进行。方法:采用定性、探索性、描述性和情境性研究设计,对10名有目的的孕妇进行半结构化访谈。Collaizi的描述方法被用来分析和组织数据到主题和类别中。结果:虽然被试对ANC及其附带的好处有一定的认识,但存在早期寻求ANC的障碍。与会者在三个主题下揭示了阻碍早期寻求ANC的因素:主题1列出了与患者相关的因素;主题2详细介绍了ANC的日常因素;最后,主题3描述了与助产士相关的因素。结论:需要重新审视生殖健康和分娩的信息传播方法,以确保对ANC服务的认识和吸收。贡献:研究结果有可能指导政策制定者解决孕妇(该服务的主要消费者)所认为的阻碍ANC使用的因素。此外,采用ANC可能有助于降低孕产妇和新生儿死亡率。

Factors influencing late antenatal booking in Tshwane District: Pregnant women's perceptions.

Background:  Antenatal care (ANC) is a branch of primary health care service universally accessible for promoting positive maternal and neonatal outcomes globally. Pregnant women are encouraged to initiate ANC as soon as pregnancy is diagnosed. Early ANC allows a series of diagnostic procedures and investigations to exclude early, potential and actual pregnancy risks. However, the rate of late initiation of ANC remains high.

Aim:  To explore and describe factors influencing late antenatal booking based on pregnant women's perceptions in selected antenatal clinics in the Tshwane district.

Setting:  The study took place at the two selected facilities rendering ANC to the public in Tshwane district.

Methods:  A qualitative, explorative, descriptive and contextual research design was followed, and 10 purposively sampled pregnant women attended semi-structured interviews. Collaizi's descriptive method was used to analyse and organise data into themes and categories.

Results:  Although the participants had some awareness of ANC and the benefits attached, there were hindrances to the early seeking of ANC. The participants brought to light the factors that hinder early seeking of ANC under three themes: Theme 1 listed the patient-related factors; Theme 2 detailed ANC routine factors; and lastly, Theme 3 described midwives-related factors.

Conclusion:  The information dissemination methods of reproductive health and childbirth need to be revisited to ensure awareness and increase uptake of the ANC services.Contribution: The study findings have the potential to guide policymakers in addressing the factors that hinder the uptake of ANC as perceived by pregnant women - the primary consumers of the service. Additionally, the uptake of ANC may contribute to a decline in maternal and neonatal mortalities.
