Intimate partner violence during pregnancy (IPVDP) is increasingly being recognized as a significant problem in the developing world due to its adverse health consequences on both pregnant women and children. The objective of the study is to measure the magnitude of intimate partner violence during pregnancy and the factors associated with IPVDP.
A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 263 married women in their extended postpartum period between October 2019 and March 2020 in Putalibajar municipality, Nepal. A face-to-face interview was conducted and data were collected using an interview schedule. A Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were performed to examine the association between IPVDP and the independent variables.
Among the 263 women interviewed, 30% experienced IPV during pregnancy, the most common type of violence was controlling behavior (20.2%) followed by emotional (18.6%), sexual (10.6%), economic (6.1%), and physical violence (5.3%). It was observed that IPV was more likely to occur among women whose husbands consumed alcohol (AOR = 3.171; CI 95%: 1.588-9.167), women whose husbands consumed tobacco (AOR =3.815; CI 95%: 2.157-7.265), women who sometimes received family support during pregnancy (AOR =2.948; CI 95%: 1.115-7.793) and women who did not decide on marriage timing (AOR =2.777; CI 95%: 1.331-5.792).
Three out of ten pregnant women experienced IPVDP. To prevent violence, and ensure women's empowerment, formulating strict laws and discouraging the element of a violent milieu is important.
孕期亲密伴侣暴力（IPVDP）因其对孕妇和儿童的不良健康影响，在发展中世界日益被视为一个重大问题。本研究的目的是衡量孕期亲密伴侣暴力的严重程度以及与IPVDP相关的因素。
2019年10月至2020年3月期间，在尼泊尔普塔利巴贾尔市对263名处于产后延长期的已婚妇女进行了一项基于社区的横断面研究。进行了面对面访谈，并使用访谈提纲收集数据。进行卡方检验和逻辑回归分析，以检验IPVDP与自变量之间的关联。
在接受访谈的263名妇女中，30%在孕期经历过IPV，最常见的暴力类型是控制行为（20.2%），其次是情感暴力（18.6%）、性暴力（10.6%）、经济暴力（6.1%）和身体暴力（5.3%）。据观察，IPV更有可能发生在丈夫饮酒的妇女中（比值比[AOR]=3.171；95%置信区间[CI]：1.588 - 9.167）、丈夫吸烟的妇女中（AOR = 3.815；CI 95%：2.157 - 7.265）、孕期有时获得家庭支持的妇女中（AOR = 2.948；CI 95%：1.115 - 7.793）以及未决定结婚时间的妇女中（AOR = 2.777；CI 95%：1.331 - 5.792）。
十分之三的孕妇经历过IPVDP。为预防暴力并确保妇女赋权，制定严格法律并抑制暴力环境因素很重要。
