目的 - 本研究的目的是检查最近怀孕期间患有妊娠糖尿病 (GDM) 的产后妇女的运动信念和行为。研究设计和方法 - 患有 GDM 的产后妇女 (n = 28) 完成了一项邮件调查,评估她们自我报告的运动信念(优势、障碍和重要的社会影响)和行为。结果 - 我们发现 1) 最强的感知优势怀孕期间运动的主要因素是控制血糖,产后运动是控制体重,2) 怀孕期间最常见的运动障碍是疲劳和产后缺乏时间,3) 妇女的丈夫/伴侣对她们在怀孕期间和产后的运动影响最大,4) 妇女在产后期间比怀孕前或怀孕期间运动更多,5) 运动优势的数量与妇女怀孕和产后的运动行为呈正相关。为了降低患有 GDM 的女性患 2 型糖尿病的风险,鼓励研究人员和医疗保健专业人员利用女性的运动信念,即优势、社会影响和感知到的运动障碍,作为设计有效的糖尿病治疗和预防计划的框架。
OBJECTIVE - The purpose Of this Study was to examine the exercise beliefs and behaviors of postpartum women who had gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) during a recent pregnancy.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Postpartum women with GDM (n = 28) completed a mail survey assessing their self-reported exercise beliefs (advantages, barriers, and important social influences) and behaviors.RESULTS - We found that 1) the strongest perceived advantage of exercise during pregnancy was controlling blood glucose and postpartum it was controlling weight, 2) the most common barrier to exercise during pregnancy was fatigue and postpartum it was a lack of time, 3) women's husband/partner most strongly influenced their exercise during pregnancy and postpartum, 4) women exercised more during the postpartum period than before or during pregnancy, and 5) the number of exercise advantages was positively associated with women's pregnancy and postpartum exercise behavior.CONCLUSIONS - To increase exercise behavior and reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in women with GDM, researchers and health care professionals are encouraged to use women's exercise beliefs, that is, advantages, social influences, and perceived barriers to exercise, as a framework for designing effective diabetes treatment and prevention programs.
