Application of integrated interventions in enhancing ultrasound examination rate of early pregnancy and awareness rate of ultrasound knowledge for pregnant women in Tibetan primary hospitals
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the application effect of integrated interventions on improving the ultrasound examination rate of early pregnancy in Tibetan primary hospitals. Methods The status of fetal ultrasound examination in women with early pregnancy admitted to Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the People’s Hospital of Chaya County in Tibet was investigated. The causes for the low ultrasound examination rate during early pregnancy were analyzed, and corresponding measures were formulated. The differences in ultrasound examination rate of early pregnancy and awareness rate of ultrasound knowledge were statistically compared before and after integrated interventions. Results After the integrated interventions, the ultrasound examination rate of early pregnancy was increased from 30.3% (96/317) to 70.7% (65/92), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). The awareness rate of ultrasound knowledge during early pregnancy was increased from 24.0% to 76.1%, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Conclusion Integrated interventions can effectively improve the ultrasound examination rate during early pregnancy and pregnant women’s awareness rate of ultrasound knowledge in primary hospitals from Tibetan areas.
