Abstract

Objective(s): To determine the KNOWLEDGE of PREGNANT WOMEN about factors predisposing to high-risk states. Methods: 407 PREGNANT WOMEN were studied in Imam Khomeini hospital in 1998. We used a questionnaire (with scores for each item ranging from 0 to 4) to evaluate the KNOWLEDGE of the respondents. Results: 50.4% of the subjects were 20-29 years old, 35.6% were primigravidas and 75.5% were receiving prenatal care. 326 women (80.1%) knew about high-risk ages for pregnancy (<16 and >35 years). More than 90% had a high level of KNOWLEDGE about some special diseases before and during pregnancy and also about addictions during pregnancy (tobacco, narcotics and other drugs) as predisposing factors for HIGH-RISK PREGNANCY. The frequency of high-level KNOWLEDGE of the warning signs in the current pregnancy was 7.4%. The same figure for warning signs in the past pregnancies was 17.7%. A total of 309 women (75.9%) had a high level of KNOWLEDGE. Moderate and low levels of KNOWLEDGE were recorded in 90 (22.1%) and 8 subjects (2%), respectively. There was a significant relation between KNOWLEDGE and education, parity and the use of prenatal care services (P=0.0001). Conclusion: The findings indicated that the PREGNANT WOMEN had fairly good KNOWLEDGE about high-risk pregnancies and the use of prenatal care significantly contributed to present condition. Thus, there is need to encourage women to use such services move frequently.
