“…A recent national study examining violence against women in Vietnam found a similar prevalence of physical p-IPV (3.4%) [62]. However, this prevalence was lower than the findings of studies with Vietnamese mothers in our recent review (30% for emotional p-IPV and 5% for physical IPV) [22] and lower than the prevalence among women in a survey in northern Vietnam (35.3%) [26] and among female patients seeking fertility treatment in a southern city (16.8% for emotional violence, 7.3% for physical violence, and 12.4% for sexual violence) [63]. This difference might reflect the significant influence of Buddhist values of kindness, belief in karma, nonviolence and Nirvana (the state of peace and happiness, achieved after giving up three poisons of greed, hatred, and delusion), which are especially strong in the contemporary population of Hue City [64].…”

Background Girls exposed to violence have a high risk of being victimized as adults and are more likely than non-abused women to have children who are treated violently. This intergenerational transmission may be especially serious when women suffer violence during pregnancy and early motherhood, as it impairs maternal wellbeing and infant health and development. This study examined the intergenerational effects of being exposed to childhood maltreatment (CM) and prenatal intimate partner violence (p-IPV) on perinatal mental distress and birth outcomes in central Vietnam. Methods A birth cohort study in Hue City, Vietnam was conducted with 150 women in the third trimester of pregnancy (Wave 1) and 3 months after childbirth (Wave 2). Using multivariable logistic regression models, augmented inverse-probability-weighted estimators and structural equation modelling (SEM), we analyzed a theoretical model by evaluating adjusted risk differences and pathways between CM, p-IPV and subsequent perinatal adversity and indicators of infant health problems. Results One in two pregnant women experienced at least one form of CM (55.03%) and one in ten pregnant women experienced both CM and p-IPV (10.67%). Mothers who experienced p-IPV or witnessed IPV as a child were approximately twice as likely to experience poor mental health during pregnancy [ARR 1.94, 95% CI (1.20–3.15)]. Infants had a two-fold higher risk of adverse birth outcomes (low birth weight, preterm birth, admission to neonatal intensive care) [ARR 2.45 95% CI (1.42, 4.25)] if their mothers experienced any form of p-IPV, with greater risk if their mothers were exposed to both CM and p-IPV [ARR 3.45 95% CI (1.40, 8.53)]. Notably, significant pathways to p-IPV were found via adverse childhood experience (ACE) events (β = 0.13), neighborhood disorder (β = 0.14) and partner support (β = − 1.3). Conclusion These results emphasize the detrimental and prolonged nature of the effect of violence during childhood and pregnancy. Exposure to childhood maltreatment and violence during pregnancy increases the risk of maternal mental health difficulties and adverse birth outcomes. Antenatal care systems need to be responsive to women’s previous experiences of violence and maternal mental health. The significant protective role of partner support and social support should also be considered when designing tailored interventions to address violence during pregnancy.

“…O rastreamento da violência doméstica na gestação durante o pré-natal é o principal meio de intervenção desse problema de saúde. Assim que detectada, as gestantes devem receber toda assistência de aconselhamento e ser encaminhada a programas locais responsáveis e habilitados para assistir a gestante, obtendo assim êxito nas intervenções (Carneiro, et al, 2016, Vo, et al, 2019. & Silva & Leite, 2020.…”

A violência doméstica na gestação é um problema de saúde pública que acarreta riscos para bem-estar da gestante e do bebê. Objetivou-se identificar nas publicações científicas os multifatores da violência doméstica na gestação. Estudo bibliométrico, de abordagem quantitativa, com busca nas bases de dados BDENF, LILACS, MEDLINE e SciELO, usando os descritores em português e inglês: Violência contra a mulher, Violência doméstica e Gestante. Foram identificados 3685 artigos. Após critérios de inclusão e exclusão, foram selecionados 21 para compor a amostra. A apresentação dos resultados foi disposta de forma descritiva e de estatística simples e apresentados sob forma de quadros. Constatou-se que um índice elevado de violência psicológica, física e sexual respectivamente, tendo como causa, a gravidez indesejada, pais jovens e sem relações conjugais sólidas. E como consequência o comprometimento da saúde da gestante e do bebê. Após análise das publicações vários fatores que influenciam na violência doméstica na gestação, as consequências e fatores de riscos foram identificados; em contraponto como limitação do estudo identificou-se a escassez de estudos sobre o tema para assistência à saúde das gestantes.

“…Regarding an inter-generational effect, children from women who experience p-IPV tend to struggle with various physical and social problems from early infancy such as low birth weight (LBW), pre-term birth (PTB) (Hoang et al, 2016;Vo et al, 2019), and have delayed social-emotional development (Tran et al, 2014). However, considerable knowledge gaps remain in Vietnam and other LMIC to determine which risk factors are causal at the macro level in which contexts, and how these can be effectively prevented to reduce violence against women (Brown et al, 2020).…”

“…The seminal research by Fisher and her colleagues has been extended by Tran et al (2014) with many publications on maternal mental disorders and their impact on early childhood cognitive development. Some recent studies on p-IPV in Vietnam have also examined p-IPV prevalence and correlated maternal mental health during pregnancy (Mai et al, 2020), PPD (Murray et al, 2015;Ngo et al, 2018;Nguyen et al, 2015;Tran et al, 2018d;Vo et al, 2019;Vo et al, 2017), birth outcomes (Hoang et al, 2016;Ngo et al, 2018;Vo et al, 2019), and socioeconomic welfare for children (Bui et al, 2018). Some studies have focused on the key predictors of p-IPV in Vietnam, such as husband's role (Nguyen et al, 2020a), social support (Nguyen et al, 2018b), and health care systems response to domestic violence (Bui et al, 2010;Le et al, 2019).…”

Prenatal intimate partner violence (p-IPV) can harm the physical and mental health of mothers and their offspring, and the effects can persist throughout life. Among Asian countries, which are strongly influenced by patriarchal ideology, Confucian beliefs and gender norms, Vietnamese women are at high risk of physical and psychological trauma from abusive behaviours. Current social, economic, and political transitions can reinforce gender inequality, and also change expectations of partners within intimate relationship; this interplay has been associated with individual men’s use of violence.
