Overview

Observational analysis reveals high aspirin adherence in women at risk for gestational hypertensive disorders, indicating positive medication beliefs matter for outcomes.

Key Points

  • High aspirin adherence rates were reported among women at risk for gestational hypertensive disorders during and after pregnancy, showing a trend towards lower rates postpartum.
  • The mean BMQ scores indicated that women generally believe in the safety and necessity of medication during pregnancy, with 95% having a higher threshold for taking medicines.
  • Using the ProMAS tool to assess adherence, scores in pregnancy averaged 10.3 out of 18, correlating positively with self-reported aspirin intake at multiple time points.
  • This research highlights the importance of understanding medication beliefs in improving adherence and potentially influencing pregnancy and neonatal outcomes.
