Smoking in pregnancy is unhealthy and can also have negative effects on the foetus. However, there are still some women who do not quit smoking during pregnancy. The aim of the study was to identify Slovenian women at risk who smoke during pregnancy.
A quantative approach using an online survey was adopted. The study was conducted in May and June 2017, in Slovenia. A snowball sample was used. Participation in the survey was anonymous and voluntary, and 118 women who identified themselves as smokers participated in the study. Descriptive statistics was used to analyse the data.
More than half (66%) did not quit smoking during pregnancy. Women who continued to smoke during pregnancy were usually younger, less educated with a partner who smoked. Women who smoked more cigarettes per day before conception were less likely to refrain from smoking during pregnancy. The most common reason for not quitting smoking during pregnancy was failure in attempts to quit (37%).
Women who smoke need support to stop smoking before pregnancy or, at least, in the first trimester. Special groups for smoking cessation need to be created. Further and more extensive research is warranted in Slovenia to assess this issue.
孕期吸烟有害健康,还会对胎儿产生负面影响。然而,仍有一些女性在孕期没有戒烟。本研究的目的是识别斯洛文尼亚有孕期吸烟风险的女性。
采用在线调查的定量研究方法。该研究于2017年5月和6月在斯洛文尼亚进行。采用滚雪球抽样法。调查参与是匿名且自愿的,118名自称吸烟者参与了研究。使用描述性统计分析数据。
超过一半(66%)的女性在孕期没有戒烟。孕期继续吸烟的女性通常更年轻,受教育程度较低,伴侣吸烟。孕前每天吸烟更多的女性在孕期更不可能戒烟。孕期不戒烟的最常见原因是戒烟尝试失败(37%)。
吸烟女性需要在孕前或至少在孕早期得到戒烟支持。需要设立专门的戒烟群体。斯洛文尼亚有必要开展进一步更广泛的研究来评估这一问题。
