Abstract

We examined the prevalence of lifetime physical and any recent violence and related maternal characteristics and health in pregnant women. We used Patient Reported Outcomes data retrieved from the Copenhagen Pregnancy Cohort (n = 7,361). The prevalence of lifetime physical and any recent violence was 4.0 % and 1.6 %, respectively. For both lifetime and any recent violence, the highest prevalence rates were seen among women aged 18–24, non-cohabiting, smokers, low levels of educational attainment, and women with chronic medical and psychiatric disease and lower psychological well-being. The prevalence may potentially be underestimated in this study, highlighting the need for improving screening for violence.

2019-2021年丹麦孕妇中的暴力行为--一项基于医院的横断面研究

我们研究了孕妇一生中遭受的身体暴力和近期遭受的任何暴力的发生率以及相关的孕产特征和健康状况。我们使用了哥本哈根妊娠队列（人数=7361）中的患者报告结果数据。终生遭受暴力和近期遭受暴力的比例分别为 4.0% 和 1.6%。就终生暴力和近期暴力而言，18-24 岁、非同居、吸烟、受教育程度低、患有慢性疾病和精神疾病以及心理健康水平较低的女性的暴力发生率最高。这项研究可能低估了暴力行为的发生率，因此有必要加强对暴力行为的筛查。
