Introduction: Pregnant women compliance to gestational diabetes militias (GDM) regimen plays
a major role in improving their overall quality of life. However, as postulated by the Health
Belief Model a greater perception of risk is associated with a greater intention to adapt lifestyle,
especially in terms of diet and physical activity. Aim of the study: to find out the relationship
between health belief model and compliance with therapeutic regimen among diabetic pregnant
women. Materials & Method: Research design: A descriptive research design was utilized in
this study. Setting: This study was conducted in the outpatient clinic of antenatal unit at ElShatby Maternity Hospital. Subjects: Convenience samples of 130 pregnant women attending the previously mentioned setting were recruited in the study. Tools: three tools were used to collect the necessary data, namely: Pregnant Women Basic Data Structured Interview Schedule, Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) & Gestational Diabetes Health Belief Model Scale. Results: About two thirds (66.9%) of the study subjects were unsatisfactory compliant with diabetic regimen. Meanwhile 33.1% of the study subjects were satisfactory compliant with their regimen. A statistically significant correlation was noticed between subjects’ total score of compliance and their perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits and barrier (p= 0.001, 0.020, 0.002, 0.000) respectively. Conclusion: It can be concluded that level of pregnant women compliance with gestational diabetes regimen was associated with some
modifying factors such as level of education, income, residence, parity, number of living children, planned pregnancy, number of antenatal visits and onset of (GDM). Furthermore, level of pregnant women compliance with GD regimen was associated with their perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits as well as barriers. Recommendation(S): To raise pregnant women awareness toward gestational diabetes including extent of the problem, risk factors, signs, complications, diagnosis through using preventive awareness campaigns and community mobilization.
