The purpose of this review article is to evaluate the peripartum outcomes of yoga during pregnancy, including the postpartum period and lactation. The PubMed database was analyzed from January 1970 to January 2011. We identified five prospective observational studies (n = 575) and three randomized clinical trials (RCTs; n = 298), which were analyzed separately. The nonrandomized trials indicated a significant reduction in rates of preterm labor (p < 0.0006), intrauterine growth retardation (p <0.003), low birth weight (p < 0.01), pregnancy discomforts (p = 0.01), and perceived sleep disturbances (p = 0.03) in those who practiced yoga during pregnancy. Results of the RCTs indicated that doing yoga during pregnancy can significantly lower pain and discomfort (p < 0.05) and perceived stress (p = 0.001) and improve quality of life in physical domains (p = 0.001). All three RCTs were poorly compliant with the Consolidated Standard of Reporting Trials statement. While awaiting an appropriately designed RCT to determine the benefits of yoga during pregnancy, it remains a viable exercise option.
本文旨在评估孕期瑜伽对母婴结局的影响，包括产后和哺乳期。我们对 1970 年 1 月至 2011 年 1 月的 PubMed 数据库进行了分析，共纳入 5 项前瞻性观察性研究（n = 575）和 3 项随机对照试验（RCT；n = 298），分别进行分析。非随机试验表明，孕期瑜伽可显著降低早产率（p < 0.0006）、宫内生长受限率（p < 0.003）、低出生体重率（p < 0.01）、妊娠不适率（p = 0.01）和睡眠障碍感知率（p = 0.03）。RCT 的结果表明，孕期瑜伽可显著降低疼痛和不适（p < 0.05）和压力感知（p = 0.001），并改善身体领域的生活质量（p = 0.001）。所有 3 项 RCT 均未严格遵守 CONSORT 声明。在等待一项设计合理的 RCT 来确定孕期瑜伽的益处之前，它仍然是一种可行的运动选择。
