Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Despite health education efforts, pregnant women still face major health problems.The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women on measures to prevent mother-to-child transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus in a context of social vulnerability.
UNASSIGNED: This is a cross-sectional survey of 384 pregnant women randomly selected from the 20 health districts in the province of Essaouira. This study was carried out from January 2022 to June 2022. A questionnaire was used, and bivariable logistic regression analyses were done to identify factors associated with knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women about mother-to-child transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus.
UNASSIGNED: Low knowledge (75.8%) and negative attitudes (72.7%) about preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV were observed in study participants. The knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women about the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV varied by education level, number of children, and source of information. There was a very significant correlation between knowledge and attitude (p=0.000).
UNASSIGNED: A significant number of pregnant women have incomplete knowledge and attitudes about preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Actions to increase the knowledge of pregnant women are essential. The capacity of healthcare providers should also be strengthened to improve the quality of care.
摘要:
尽管进行了健康教育,孕妇仍然面临重大健康问题。这项研究的目的是评估孕妇在社会脆弱性背景下预防人类免疫缺陷病毒母婴传播的措施的知识和态度。
这是从索维拉省20个卫生区中随机选择的384名孕妇的横断面调查。这项研究于2022年1月至2022年6月进行。使用了问卷,并进行了双变量逻辑回归分析,以确定与孕妇对人类免疫缺陷病毒母婴传播的知识和态度相关的因素。
在研究参与者中观察到关于预防HIV母婴传播的知识不足(75.8%)和消极态度(72.7%)。孕妇对预防母婴传播艾滋病毒的知识和态度因受教育程度而异,儿童数量,和信息来源。知识和态度之间存在非常显著的相关性(p=0.000)。
相当多的孕妇对预防母婴传播艾滋病毒的知识和态度不完全。增加孕妇知识的行动至关重要。还应加强医疗保健提供者的能力,以提高护理质量。
