摘要

目的了解拟结婚夫妇的孕前保健意识及相关知识。方法本横断面研究的样本包括240对向基耶省地中海地区某中心区市政婚姻局申请结婚的订婚夫妇。研究人员使用“个人信息表”和“孕前护理意识和信息表”通过面对面访谈收集数据。结果71.7%的女性和45.4%的男性年龄在25岁及以下，76.3%的女性和64.6%的男性具有高中及以上文化程度。据报道，54.2%的女性和56.3%的男性计划在婚后立即或一年内要孩子。调查发现，有8.8%的女性和4.2%的男性听说过孕前护理概念，男女在听说过孕前护理概念方面差异有统计学意义（p < 0.05）。调查对象的孕前护理知识平均得分为59.26±31.85分（可能分值在0 ~ 100分之间）。在这项研究中，性别、教育状况、职业、是否患有可能影响怀孕期间健康的疾病、家族中是否存在遗传性疾病以及婚后计划生育时间被确定为影响孕前保健知识的因素。结论本研究中，准备结婚夫妇对孕前保健概念的知晓率较低，对孕前保健内容和益处的了解处于中等水平。重要的是要提高准备结婚的夫妇对孕前保健的认识，并消除信息差距。

Examination of Preconception Care Awareness and Knowledge of Couples Preparing for Marriage: A Cross-Sectional Study

Objective

This study aimed to examine the preconception care awareness and knowledge of couples preparing for marriage.

Methods

The sample of this cross-sectional study consisted of 240 engaged couples who applied for marriage to the marriage directorate of a central district municipality in the Mediterranean Region of Türkiye. The researchers collected the data through face-to-face interviews using the “Personal Information Form” and “Preconception Care Awareness and Information Form.”

Results

While 71.7% of women and 45.4% of men are 25 years old and below, 76.3% of women and 64.6% of men have a high school education or above. It was reported that 54.2% of women and 56.3% of men planned to have children immediately or 1 year after marriage. It was found that 8.8% of women and 4.2% of men had heard of the concept of preconception care, and there was a significant difference between women and men in terms of hearing the concept of preconception care (p < 0.05). The mean preconception care knowledge score of the participants was 59.26 ± 31.85 (possible scores are between 0 and 100). In this study, gender, educational status, occupation, presence of a disease that may affect health during pregnancy, presence of a genetic disease in the family, and planned time to have a child after marriage were determined as factors affecting knowledge of preconception care.

Conclusion

In this study, the rate of hearing the concept of preconception care among couples preparing for marriage is quite low, while their knowledge regarding its content and benefits is at an intermediate level. It is important to increase the awareness of preconception care in couples preparing for marriage and to eliminate the information gap.

期刊介绍： The journal Birth Defects Research publishes original research and reviews in areas related to the etiology of adverse developmental and reproductive outcome. In particular the journal is devoted to the publication of original scientific research that contributes to the understanding of the biology of embryonic development and the prenatal causative factors and mechanisms leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes, namely structural and functional birth defects, pregnancy loss, postnatal functional defects in the human population, and to the identification of prenatal factors and biological mechanisms that reduce these risks. Adverse reproductive and developmental outcomes may have genetic, environmental, nutritional or epigenetic causes. Accordingly, the journal Birth Defects Research takes an integrated, multidisciplinary approach in its organization and publication strategy. The journal Birth Defects Research contains separate sections for clinical and molecular teratology, developmental and reproductive toxicology, and reviews in developmental biology to acknowledge and accommodate the integrative nature of research in this field. Each section has a dedicated editor who is a leader in his/her field and who has full editorial authority in his/her area.
