Abstract: Objective:To explore the knowledge of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) concepts among midwives and obstetricians and to identify barriers and facilitators for clinicians to engage women and their partners before or early in pregnancy on risk factors associated with DOHaD, and thus to embed the concept of DOHaD in routine clinical practice. Methods:A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews will be conducted in Ghana, India, Pakistan, Brazil, the UK, and USA in collaboration with th… Show more

Response options range from 'not at all' (0) to 'nearly every day' (3). Items are summed to create a total score; those scoring >10 are considered to have moderate to severe depressive symptoms.…”

“…This is the basis of the developmental origins of health and disease, a concept that recognises the impact of the ‘exposome’ of parents and grandparents on the disease risk of future generations (32,33) . As pregnancy nutrition influences lifelong disease risk in mothers and children, improving it as part of a ‘life course approach’ in maternity services holds great potential to reduce the global disease burden of conditions such as cancer, cardiometabolic disease and obesity (5,34) . The World Health Organisation (WHO) previously stated that nutrition, including maternal nutrition, is the highest priority issue for global public health (35) .…”
