OBJECTIVE
To assess the attitudes of Saudi parents towards prenatal diagnosis and termination of pregnancy for a range of different genetic disorders.
METHODS
Two hundred Saudi parents (100 fathers and 100 mothers) completed a structured questionnaire which sought their views about each of 30 different conditions.
RESULTS
The great majority of people would consider a termination of pregnancy for at least one of the conditions studied. Mothers and fathers held similar attitudes towards prenatal diagnosis, but mothers' attitudes towards termination of pregnancy were more favourable. Parents' collective attitudes towards prenatal diagnosis and towards termination of pregnancy were correlated.
CONCLUSIONS
Saudi parents are favourably inclined towards prenatal diagnosis, and consider termination of pregnancy to be acceptable for some conditions. New technologies provide parents with more reproductive choices but also present them with more dilemmas.
目的
评估沙特父母对于一系列不同遗传疾病的产前诊断及终止妊娠的态度。
方法
两百名沙特父母（100名父亲和100名母亲）完成了一份结构化问卷，该问卷询问了他们对30种不同病症的看法。
结果
绝大多数人会考虑针对至少一种所研究的病症终止妊娠。父亲和母亲对产前诊断持相似态度，但母亲对终止妊娠的态度更为支持。父母对产前诊断和终止妊娠的总体态度存在相关性。
结论
沙特父母倾向于接受产前诊断，并认为在某些情况下终止妊娠是可以接受的。新技术为父母提供了更多的生育选择，但也给他们带来了更多困境。
