Factors Related to Prehypertension among Pregnant Women in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province
Keywords:
Prehypertension, Pregnant WomenAbstract
This correlational research aimed to study associated factors of prehypertension during pregnancy among pregnant women in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. The subjects were 357 pregnant women who received antenatal care at a central hospital and three community hospitals in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. Questionnaires were used to collect personal data, pregnancy data, and the history of blood pressure. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and chi-squares. The results showed that 25.21 percent of pregnant women had prehypertension and 3.36% had hypertensive disorder during pregnancy. A statistically significant relationship between the number of pregnancies and early gestational hypertension was found (χ2 = 8.541, p<.05) Recommendations: Health workers should have risk screening and monitoring for pregnant women, especially those with prehypertension who are multiparous.
