Test of knowledge of pregnant women on key danger signs as a marker to assess the quality of information shared during health education at the antenatal clinic (ANC) is desirable.
The aim was to assess correct knowledge of danger signs among pregnant women who attend ANC.
A cross-sectional design conducted among pregnant women at the ANC of the University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria.
A pretested structured questionnaire that contains sociodemographics, past obstetrics history, and a list of test questions to assess correct knowledge of danger signs was administered to each consenting participant.
Descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed. The knowledge score of key danger signs in pregnancy (KDSP) was measured on a scale of 0-7 and participants were scored as having poor (0-2), fair (3-4), or good (5-7) knowledge. The reliability of the questionnaire to assess knowledge score was determined with Cronbach's alpha. Statistical significance was set 5%. STATA 12.0 Software was used.
The mean age of respondents was 30.28 ± 4.56 with the majority (75.1%) of respondents aged 26-35 years. The Cronbach's alpha was 0.871. In general, the knowledge score was good and the associated factors on bivariate analysis were younger age (P = 0.028), Islamic religion (P = 0.048), ethnicity (P = 0.03), professional occupation (P = 0.01), and previous attendance of health talk on KDSP (P < 0.0001).
There was a high knowledge score of KDSP, but some still have some misconceptions that need to be addressed.
对孕妇进行关键危险信号知识测试，以此作为评估产前诊所（ANC）健康教育中所分享信息质量的一项指标，这是很有必要的。
旨在评估参加产前诊所的孕妇对危险信号的正确认知。
在尼日利亚伊巴丹大学学院医院的产前诊所对孕妇进行横断面设计研究。
向每位同意参与的受试者发放一份经过预测试的结构化问卷，问卷包含社会人口统计学信息、既往产科病史以及一系列用于评估对危险信号正确认知的测试问题。
进行描述性和双变量分析。采用0 - 7分制衡量孕期关键危险信号知识得分（KDSP），得分0 - 2分为知识掌握差，3 - 4分为中等，5 - 7分为良好。用Cronbach's alpha系数确定问卷评估知识得分的信度。设定统计学显著性水平为5%。使用STATA 12.0软件。
受访者的平均年龄为30.28 ± 4.56岁，大多数（75.1%）受访者年龄在26 - 35岁之间。Cronbach's alpha系数为0.871。总体而言，知识得分良好，双变量分析中的相关因素包括年龄较小（P = 0.028）、伊斯兰教（P = 0.048）、种族（P = 0.03）、职业（P = 0.01）以及之前参加过关于孕期关键危险信号的健康讲座（P < 0.0001）。
孕期关键危险信号知识得分较高，但仍有一些误解需要解决。
