摘 要:Objective: To conduct a population-based assessment of associations of intimate partner violence in the year prior to and during pregnancy with maternal and neonatal morbidity. Study design: Data from women giving birth in 26 U.S. states and participating in the 2000 to 2003 Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System(n=118,579) were analyzed. Results: Women reporting intimate partner violence in the year prior to pregnancy were at increased risk for high blood pressure or edema(adjusted odds ratio 1.37-1.40), vaginal bleeding(adjusted odds ratio 1.54-1.66), severe nausea, vomiting or dehydration(adjusted odds ratio 1.48-1.63), kidney infection or urinary tract infection(adjusted odds ratio 1.43-1.55), hospital visits related to such morbidity(adjusted odds ratio 1.45-1.48), and delivery preterm(adjusted odds ratio 1.37), of a low-birthweight infant(adjusted odds ratio 1.17), and an infant requiring intensive care unit care(adjusted odds ratio 1.31-1.33) compared with those not reporting intimate partner violence. Women reporting intimate partner violence during but not prior to pregnancy experienced higher rates of a subset of these concerns. Conclusion: Women experiencing intimate partner violence both prior to and during pregnancy are at risk for multiple poor maternal and infant health outcomes, suggesting prenatal risks to children from mothers’abusive partners.
