This study was conducted to clarify the prevalence of alcohol consumption among pregnant women in Japan and its associated factors.
344 institutions participated in the survey which was conducted in February 2006. Each subject was requested to fill out a self-administered anonymous questionnaire. Factors associated with alcohol consumption during pregnancy were examined using the chi-squared test and logistic regression analysis.
The number of effective responses was 18,965. The prevalence of alcohol consumption before the confirmation of pregnancy and during pregnancy was 44.6% and 4.6% respectively. The following items were recognized as being associated with promoting alcohol consumption during pregnancy: greater number of weeks of pregnancy, more pregnancies, fewer years of schooling, being employed, an alcohol consumption before the confirmation of pregnancy, smoking during pregnancy, ignorance about the effects of alcohol consumption on fetuses, receiving advice regarding alcohol abstention, difficulty maintaining sleep, and daytime sleepiness.
It is important to have a more comprehensive understanding of the factors associated with the alcohol consumption behavior of pregnant women, as revealed in the present study, in order to develop future policies for preventing alcohol consumption among pregnant women.
本研究旨在明确日本孕妇饮酒的患病率及其相关因素。
2006年2月，344家机构参与了此项调查。要求每位受试者填写一份自行填写的匿名问卷。使用卡方检验和逻辑回归分析来研究孕期饮酒的相关因素。
有效回复数量为18965份。确认怀孕前和怀孕期间的饮酒患病率分别为44.6%和4.6%。以下因素被认为与孕期促进饮酒有关：怀孕周数更多、怀孕次数更多、受教育年限更少、就业、确认怀孕前饮酒、孕期吸烟、对饮酒对胎儿影响的无知、接受戒酒建议、难以维持睡眠以及白天嗜睡。
如本研究所示，为制定未来预防孕妇饮酒的政策，更全面地了解与孕妇饮酒行为相关的因素非常重要。
