Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of patients with recurrent pregnancy loss toward pregnancy loss.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Self-management is crucial in managing recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). This study explored the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of patients with RPL toward RPL.

Methods

This cross-sectional study was conducted among patients with RPL between January 2023 and June 2023 at the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University. Participants' demographic characteristics and KAP were determined using a self-designed questionnaire (Cronbach's α = 0.818). Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to observe the correlations among KAP and different factors.

Results

This study analyzed 497 valid questionnaires. The mean knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 11.59 ± 4.30 (possible range: 0-20, 57.95%), 44.17 ± 3.18 (possible range: 13-65, 67.95%), and 32.39 ± 5
