目的：我们着手比较测量的身体质量指数（BMI）与自我报告的妇女在怀孕早期in pregnancy.Study design：我们研究了100名妇女预约产前保健在第一个三个月与正常的持续妊娠。记录母亲自我报告的体重和身高，并计算体重指数。之后，母亲的体重和身高进行了数字化测量和实际的BMI counted.Results：如果自我报告是用于BMI分类，我们发现，22%的妇女被错误地分类时，BMI测量。12%被归类为自我报告BMI正常的女性超重，5%被归类为超重的女性肥胖。类似的调查结果已报告外pregnancy.Conclusions：这些研究结果有影响的临床实践，并为研究探讨产妇肥胖和妊娠并发症之间的关系。(C)2009爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司保留所有权利。
Objective: We set out to compare measurement of Body Mass Index (BMI) with selfreporting in women early in pregnancy.Study design: We studied 100 women booking for antenatal care in the first trimester with a normal ongoing pregnancy. Selfreported maternal weight and height were recorded and the Body Mass Index was calculated. Afterwards maternal weight and height were digitally measured and actual BMI was calculated.Results: If selfreporting is used for BMI classification, we found that 22% of women were classified incorrectly when BMI was measured. 12% of the women who were classified as having a normal selfreported BMI were overweight and 5% classified as overweight were obese. Similar findings have been reported outside pregnancy.Conclusions: These findings have implications for clinical practice, and for research studies exploring the relationship between maternal adiposity and pregnancy complications.
