Abstract

Aim: This study was conducted to determine the frequency of pica habit in pregnant women who applied to obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinic in order to receive prenatal care services and were diagnosed with anemia. Material and method: It includes 203 pregnant women who accepted to participate in the study, and who applied to Obstetrics and Gynecology outpatient clinic for prenatal care, were diagnosed with anemia and had 2nd and 3rd Trimester pregnancy. Findings: Within the scope of this study, it was determined that 32% (65) of pregnant women had pica habit. When the pregnant women were asked a question which had no nutritional values like, "What do you eat?", 65 (100%) of the patients reported that they ate ice, paper and soil, and 63 (96.9) and 4 (2.6%) of them reported that they ate dyes and hair, respectively. Result: Pica habit was detected in one of every three anemic pregnant women in our study. During prenatal follow-up, the pica habit of the pregnant women should be determined in the early period and they should be followed-up and informed in terms of teratogenicity.

Özet

Amaç: Doğum öncesi bakım hizmeti almak için kadın hastalıkları ve doğum polikliniğine başvuran, anemi tanısı almış gebelerde pika alışkanlığı sıklığını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Materyal metod: Kadın hastalıkları ve doğum polikliniğine doğum öncesi bakım almak için başvuran 2. ve 3. Trimestir gebeliği olan anemi tanısı almış ve çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 203 gebeden oluşmaktadır. Bulgular: Araştırma kapsamında gebelerin %32’sinde (65) pika alışkanlığı olduğu tespit edilmiş olup, gebelere besleyici değeri olmayan “ne yersiniz?” sorusu soruluğunda gebelerin; 65’i (%100) buz, kâğıt ve toprak, 63’ü (96.9) boya, 4’ü (%2,6)saç yediklerini bildirmişlerdir. Sonuç: Çalışmamızda her üç anemik gebenin birinde pika alışkanlığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu anlamda doğum öncesi izlem sırasında gebelerin pika alışkanlığının erken dönemde tespit edilip teratojenite açısından da gebelerin takibi ve bilgilendirmesi yapılmalıdır.
