“…More frequent smoking during pregnancy among Roma women is confirmed by Bobak et al (1) and Balázs et al (2). In the survey by Širvinskiené et al (29), 14.8% of 514 mothers admitted smoking during pregnancy. Our survey shows even more unfavourable results, with up to 49.3% of Roma women admitting that they were smoking during pregnancy.…”

Objective: This study analyses the differences in birth outcomes between Roma and non-Roma mothers and investigates the potential causes of such differences.Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 1,989 non-Roma and 799 Roma mothers who gave birth in 2014 and 2015 at the Gynaecology and Obstetrics Clinic of Louis Pasteur University Hospital in Košice. Data on mothers and new-born infants have been obtained from the birth book and from the reports on mothers at childbirth. For low birth weight we considered the weight of a new-born weighing less than 2,500 grams and as for premature birth we referred to childbirth before pregnancy week 37. The file was split by ethnicity and statistically processed in IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0.Results: Our results confirmed a lower birth weight among Roma children (-365.4 grams, p < 0.001). The shorter gestation age and higher risk of premature birth were not statistically significant regarding Roma children. Based on the characteristics of Roma mothers, they are at higher risk of giving birth as minor (OR = 23.64; 95% CI = 15.29-36.54; p < 0.001), as single mothers (OR = 7.13; 95% CI = 5.80-8.76; p < 0.001), with basic education or lack of education (OR = 141.31; 95% CI = 100. 47-198.76; p < 0.001). They also have a higher risk of smoking during pregnancy (OR = 23.84; 95% CI = 18.06-31.49; p < 0.001); drinking alcohol (OR = 11.71; 95% CI = 3.36-40.90; p < 0.001) and taking drugs (OR = 8.70; 95% CI = 1.81-42.02; p < 0.001). Roma women attended gynaecologists more rarely.Conclusion: It is therefore important to support the work of community health workers and stimulate collaboration between community health professionals, paediatricians and gynaecologists to overcome institutional barriers in maternity and child care for mothers living in Roma settlement.

“…There is evidence that smoking during pregnancy is more common among particular groups of women including younger women and women with lower SES profiles (Sirvinskiene et al, 2016). The extent to which these vulnerabilities, depression and low SES, may contribute jointly to an increase in prenatal smoking is not known.…”

Background Despite success of public health-oriented tobacco control programs in lowering the smoking prevalence over the past several decades, it is unclear whether similar reductions in smoking have been experienced among pregnant women, especially in vulnerable groups such as those with major depression and/or lower socioeconomic status. Objectives The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between major depressive episode (MDE) and smoking among pregnant women overall, and by demographics and to estimate changes in the prevalence of cigarette smoking among pregnant women with and without MDE from 2005–2014. Study Design Cigarette use among pregnant women with and without MDE was examined using logistic regression models in the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Results Prenatal smoking is more common among pregnant women with, compared to without, MDE (32.5% vs. 13.0%; (adjusted OR=2.50 (1.85, 3.40)), and greater disparities were revealed when also considering income, education and race. Over time, smoking during pregnancy increased significantly among women with MDE (35.9% to 38.4%; p=0.02)) and showed a decreasing trend among women without MDE (12.5% to 9.1%; p=0.07) from 2005–2014. Conclusions Over the past decade, smoking during pregnancy has increased among women experiencing a major depressive episode and is over four times more common among pregnant women with, than without, MDE. Disparities in smoking during pregnancy by MDE status and socioeconomic subgroups appear substantial. Given the multitude of risks associated with both MDE and smoking during the prenatal period, more work targeting this vulnerable and high-risk group is needed.

“…The advantages of working in a community would be the possibility to catch cases of women smoking at home in the prenatal phase. Also, after delivery it would be possible to support women who quit smoking during pregnancy, so that adequate sources of dopamine could be provided in order to prevent a return to the smoking habit (Albrecht et al, 2011;Širvinskienė et al, 2016). In order to be successful with adequate substitutional interventions, a positive social interaction and knowledge of a key behavior-controlling factor that increases happiness (dopamine spillage), is essential.…”

Introduction: Both pre-conception and especially a mother's (parents') prenatal risk habits play a very significant role in the etiology of baby ontogeny abnormalities and health disorders. These abnormalities and disorders can manifest themselves immediately or in longterm latency. The behavior of future mothers is affected with their knowledge, which forms the basis of women's everyday habits. This is an expression of their health literacy and psychosocial factors. This can be positively influenced by care providers (midwives) within prenatal counseling or courses, preferably before the conception. Aim: The aim of the survey was to find out the current level of health literacy in the field of women's smoking in connection with their pregnancy, and the factors which affect it the most. Materials and methods: The questionnaire survey and evaluation of selected anthropometric parameters in women after birth in selected bed-care facilities in Bohemia and Moravia were used for the study (research). Statistical analyses was carried out by Pearson's test χ 2 (chi-square) and Anova test on significance level 0.05. Results: It was found that in spite of relatively good awareness, smoking is a widespread habit among the population of potential mothers and is connected to education level and smoking in a woman's family history. Some women (30%) quit smoking when they decide to get pregnant or during pregnancy. Some women (10%) do not give up the habit despite being aware of the risk to both mothers' and babies' health. Conclusions: It is clear that the prevention and elimination of the risk behavior of pregnant women, in our case smoking, still shows considerable insufficiencies. An important part of the effective prevention of fetal harm and future development of the child, not only in the context of prenatal care, is health literacy, which can be improved through prenatal courses and counseling led by a midwife.
