چکیده انگلیسی


- Women engaged with antenatal weight management services report positive experiences.
- Dietetic referrals should be fully discussed to address expectations and anxieties.
- Tailoring weight management advice should include nutrition benefits to the baby.
- Women with obesity wanted more frequent weight monitoring throughout pregnancy.
- Antenatal dietitian-led services may not address women's physical activity needs.

Objectiveto understand the lived experiences and views of being referred to an antenatal dietetic service from the perspective of pregnant women with obesity.Designa qualitative, interpretive approach using one-to-one in-depth interviews to explore the lived experience of pregnant women with obesity following referral to an antenatal dietetics service. Thematic content analysis was carried out by two researchers independently to develop data-driven themes.Settingone NHS Trust maternity and dietetic services, North East England, UK.Participantsfifteen pregnant women with a booking body mass index ≥30 kg/m2 attending an obesity-specific antenatal dietetic service. All women were White, parity between 0 and 2, and BMI range 30-51 kg/m2.Findingsfour themes were identified. (1) Women's overall experience of the service: experiences were predominately positive with only two negative cases identified. (2) Process of referral: women placed importance on informative and in-person communication about the service, with health professionals, at the point of referral. (3) Delivery of the service: dietitians were considered to be the experts and women wanted more frequent contact. (4) Content of the service: tailored advice enabled behaviour change, and women desired increased physical activity support and weight monitoring.Key conclusionswomen reported an overall positive experience and thought that dietitians were the expert health professionals to support them. Women in this study felt that tailoring advice specific to their personal circumstances helped them implement changes, and had a strong interest in the nutritional benefits for fetal development. Women considered weight monitoring to be a positive element of the service; however, further research is required given the limited and conflicting evidence-base.Implications for practiceit is important to incorporate women's experiences in the development and delivery of antenatal weight management services to facilitate person-centred care. Communication by health professionals at the point of referral is particularly important to provide accurate expectations of services and to reduce anxieties. Dietitians are considered to be appropriate experts to deliver these services, although they may need additional support to address women's physical activity needs in pregnancy.
