Background: Almost all
women are at risk for unintended pregnancy, and reducing unwanted pregnancy is
one of the priorities for health professionals. This study was conducted in Chabahar
to evaluate the impact of education on knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of
urban women with high risk pregnancies.
Materials and Methods: This randomized controlled
intervention study was conducted on 94 women aged 15 to 49 who got married in
2012 in Chabahar. It was a multi-stage random sampling method. Data were
gathered by a researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed by SPSS software
version 19 by using paired t-test, independent t-test and, chi- square test. Training
was given by group discussions, question and answer sessions through PowerPoint
presentations.
Results: According
to the chi-square test, there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between
the experimental and control groups in terms of demographic variables. The
experimental group’s knowledge, attitude and behaviors increased
significantly compared to the pre-intervention period (p<0.05).
