Miscarriage refers to the loss of a fetus before the completion of 28 weeks of gestation. The prevalence of miscarriage across all age groups ranges from 12% to 20%. Despite the great incidence of miscarriage, public awareness and understanding about pregnancy loss remain inadequate. Currently, social media platforms, such as Instagram, are frequently utilised by the public as a mechanism to address their health-related concerns.
This study aims to determine the characteristics of content disseminated on Instagram regarding International Pregnancy Loss/Miscarriage Day over the preceding three-year period.
This was an analytical-observational study to describe community participation on Instagram in commemorating International Pregnancy Loss Day 2022-2024. Hashtags used include #pregnancyloss, #pregnancylossawareness, and #pregnancylossjourney. Data were analysed using content analysis and simple nominal descriptive statistics to enable comparison.
A total of 600 Instagram posts were deemed eligible and met the specified inclusion criteria for subsequent analysis. The data revealed that the predominant form of content consists of text/quotes, comprising 44.38% (n=248) of the total content. The most common content type was personal experience sharing, accounting for 55.6% (n=334), followed by education/information for 44.24% (n=265).
The utilization of social media platforms like Instagram to commemorate International Pregnancy Loss Day, particularly by health care provider, has huge potential benefit to spread awareness, information, as well as providing support for patients.
流产是指在妊娠28周之前胎儿丢失。所有年龄组的流产患病率在12%至20%之间。尽管流产发生率很高，但公众对妊娠丢失的认识和理解仍然不足。目前，Instagram等社交媒体平台经常被公众用作解决其健康相关问题的一种方式。
本研究旨在确定在过去三年中Instagram上关于国际妊娠丢失/流产日所传播内容的特征。
这是一项分析性观察研究，旨在描述Instagram上社区参与纪念2022 - 2024年国际妊娠丢失日的情况。使用的主题标签包括#妊娠丢失、#妊娠丢失意识和#妊娠丢失历程。采用内容分析和简单的名义描述性统计进行数据分析以便进行比较。
共有600条Instagram帖子被认为符合条件并满足后续分析的指定纳入标准。数据显示，内容的主要形式是文本/语录，占总内容的44.38%（n = 248）。最常见的内容类型是个人经历分享，占55.6%（n = 334），其次是教育/信息，占44.24%（n = 265）。
利用Instagram等社交媒体平台来纪念国际妊娠丢失日，特别是医疗保健提供者的参与，对于提高认识、传播信息以及为患者提供支持具有巨大的潜在益处。
