Late booking at the Michael Mapongwana antenatal clinic, Khayelitsha – understanding the reasonsDe Vaal, Sybrand Johannes 23 July 2015 (has links)
Background: The initiation of antenatal care (“booking”) is universally recommended in the first trimester. While working in the Michael Mapongwana antenatal clinic (ANC) in Khayelitsha, the researcher noticed that late booking was prevalent, with consequent impaired antenatal care and increased potential for adverse outcomes. The objective of this qualitative study was to understand why women book late at this specific ANC.
Methods: Twenty-three in-depth, open-ended interviews were conducted with 23 late bookers (i.e. who booked after 18 weeks) who attended the ANC between June and October in 2009. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analysed according to the “Framework” model.
Results: The mean gestational age at booking was 26,4 weeks (range: 20 to 34 weeks). The majority were multigravid, unmarried and unemployed. A high incidence of previous or current obstetric problems was noted. Important personal barriers included ignorance of purpose of antenatal care, ignorance of ideal booking time, and denial or late recognition of an unplanned pregnancy. Provider barriers appeared to be significant, especially the cumbersome booking system, absence of an ultrasound service, and perceived poor quality of care.
Conclusion: A combination of personal and provider barriers contributed to late booking at this clinic - it seems that the perceived effort of attending this antenatal service outweighed the perceived value thereof. Provider barriers should be addressed by accommodating patients’ needs, optimising nurse-patient interaction, provision of an ultrasound service and improvement of the booking system. Public awareness of early booking and the holistic value of antenatal care should also be enhanced.

Expectations of pregnant women prior to fetal ultrasoundBok, Eularnia Janine January 2017 (has links)
Background
Expectations and knowledge of pregnant women prior to fetal ultrasound are well documented in developed countries. Women have generally been shown to have appropriate and reasonable expectations and knowledge. The main objective of this study was to examine whether the views of women in our setting are similar to findings from studies in developed countries.
Methods
This was a descriptive study done on pregnant women attending the ultrasound department and antenatal clinic at Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital.
An interview questionnaire was administered before the ultrasound scan.
Results
Two hundred and fifty women were recruited. The most frequently expressed expectation was to determine sex of baby (n=154). This was followed by wanting to know the baby’s wellbeing and health (n=136). All the women interviewed had expectations.
The majority of women did not know that fetal anomalies could be detected at fetal ultrasound (n=235), this was statistically significant (p=0.003) and was correlated to educational level.
Almost half the women did not know the purpose of the ultrasound for which they were referred for (n=124).
Conclusion
Most women had appropriate expectations in keeping with studies from developed countries.
Lack of education was directly linked to poor knowledge of fetal ultrasound. This study has identified areas where patient education is needed regarding fetal ultrasounds. / LG2018
