An antenatal mother undergoes significant changes throughout pregnancy and most of which occur during the second trimester. Supplements are important for normal growth and development of fetus, Deficiency of supplements during pregnancy leads to anemia and can have a negative impact on perinatal and maternal outcomes. These complications can be prevented by supplementing needed vitamins and minerals.
A Quasi-experimental study was conducted on 137 subjects visiting gynecology OPD enrolled by total enumerative sampling technique. Hemoglobin level and the adherence of supplements were assessed during the second trimester of antenatal mothers in both the groups.
Adherence of supplements has increased significantly ( value = 0.005, 0.004, and 0.040 for iron, folic acid, and calcium, respectively) among subjects in the experimental group. Results of SMAQ shows that there is increase in adherent mothers from 33.3% to 71.2% experimental group.
Supplement adherence kit was effective in increasing supplement adherence level along with an improvement in hemoglobin levels among antenatal mothers in the Experimental group.
孕期母亲在整个孕期会经历显著变化,其中大部分变化发生在孕中期。补充剂对胎儿的正常生长发育很重要,孕期缺乏补充剂会导致贫血,并可能对围产期和母亲结局产生负面影响。通过补充所需的维生素和矿物质可以预防这些并发症。
采用全枚举抽样技术,对137名到妇科门诊就诊的受试者进行了一项准实验研究。在两组产前母亲的孕中期评估血红蛋白水平和补充剂的依从性。
实验组受试者中补充剂的依从性显著提高(铁、叶酸和钙的P值分别为0.005、0.004和0.040)。SMAQ结果显示,实验组中坚持补充的母亲从33.3%增加到71.2%。
补充剂依从性试剂盒有效提高了实验组产前母亲的补充剂依从性水平,并改善了血红蛋白水平。
