美国卫生与公众服务部《2000 年健康人口》的家庭计划目标之一包括减少美国的意外怀孕。 1 预防意外怀孕是美国疾病控制与预防中心 (CDC) 国家慢性病预防和健康促进中心生殖健康部门的首要任务，因为它与影响母亲、婴儿和家庭的不良健康结果有关。 2 意外怀孕在美国很普遍，影响到所有社会经济和人口群体的妇女。 2, 31994 年在美国，大约 49% 的怀孕（不包括流产）是意外怀孕，31% 的分娩属于意外怀孕。 3 20 岁以下女性的意外分娩比例高于年长女性。 3 妊娠风险评估监测系统 (PRAMS) 是 CDC 开发的监测系统之一，可用于评估最近产下活产婴儿的妇女中意外怀孕的发生率。我们展示了使用 PRAMS 数据来检查一段时间内意外怀孕趋势的有用性。[编者注：另请参阅 Journal of Women's Health 1998； 7：799。]
ONEOF THE FAMILY PLANNING OBJECTIVES of the US Department of Health andHuman Ser-vices Healthy People 2000 includes a reduction in unintended pregnancy in the United States. 1 Pre-vention of unintended pregnancy is a priority for the Division of Reproductive Health at the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), because it is associated with adverse health outcomes that affect the mother, the infant, and the family. 2 Unintended pregnancy is widespread in the United States, and it affects women in all socioeconomic and de-mographic groups. 2, 3In the United States in 1994, approximately 49% of all pregnancies, excluding miscarriages, were unintended, and 31% of births were classified as unintended. 3 The proportion of unintended births was higher among women younger than 20 years of age than it was among older women. 3 The Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS), one of the surveillance systems developed by the CDC, can be used to assess the prevalence of unintended pregnancy among women who have recently delivered a liveborn infant. We demonstrate the usefulness of using PRAMS data in examining trends in un-intended pregnancy over time.[Editor's note: See also Journal ofWomen's Health 1998; 7: 799.]
