Pregnant Women’s Receipt of Comprehensive Guideline Recommended Antenatal Care for Smoking
This study is the first to examine pregnant women's reported receipt of comprehensive guideline-recommended care for maternal smoking. The findings indicate that a significant proportion of pregnant women attending public maternity services are not receiving comprehensive care and that many are not being offered evidence-based interventions to assist them to quit. Barriers to comprehensive care delivery need to be identified and addressed if the potential for smoking interventions delivered in this setting to impact smoking rates in pregnancy is to be realized.
