Canadian findings suggest that health care providers require further training and education to support their work preventing fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). However, the knowledge and training of health care students in relation to FASD remains largely unexplored. The purpose of this study was to understand the attitudes and beliefs of health care students about alcohol use during pregnancy. Twenty-one health care students participated in a scenario-based vignette about alcohol consumption during pregnancy. Although almost all students recognized that no alcohol consumption during pregnancy is the safest recommendation, many students recounted that this advice is not always conveyed during encounters with their pregnant patients. Three primary themes related to students' attitudes concerning alcohol use during pregnancy were identified. Health care professionals in training need further education about the risks of alcohol consumption during pregnancy and the potential health outcomes associated with prenatal alcohol exposure.
加拿大的研究结果表明,医疗保健提供者需要进一步培训和教育,以支持他们预防胎儿酒精谱系障碍(FASD)的工作。然而,医护专业学生关于FASD的知识和培训在很大程度上仍未得到探索。本研究的目的是了解医护专业学生对孕期饮酒的态度和看法。21名医护专业学生参与了一个关于孕期饮酒的情景式小案例。尽管几乎所有学生都认识到孕期不饮酒是最安全的建议,但许多学生讲述,在与怀孕患者接触时,这一建议并不总是被传达。确定了与学生对孕期饮酒态度相关的三个主要主题。接受培训的医疗保健专业人员需要进一步了解孕期饮酒的风险以及与产前酒精暴露相关的潜在健康后果。
