Smoking During Pregnancy: Possibilities of Prevention in Antenatal Care
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 March 2009
Abstract
Prevention of smoking in pregnancy is a mission of utmost importance since the fetal outcome is improved when the mother quits smoking. Methods to prevent smoking have to consider maternal attitudes and characteristics and be based on pedagogical and behavioral principles. A well-motivated staff, a self-help manual accepted by most women, and special support to those who want it are minimal requirements.
