TABLE 3.
The total number of antenatal appointments participants received.
| Total n = 181 (%) | Normal outcome n = 72 (%) | Adverse outcome n = 109 (%) | Odds ratio (95% confidence interval) | Monochorionic n = 54 (%) | Dichorionic n = 127 (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Antenatal appointments | Pseudo R 2 0.02 | p = 0.14 | ||||
| Less than recommended | 94 (51.9) | 42 (58.3) | 52 (47.7) | 2.48 (0.79–7.80) | 36 (66.7) | 58 (45.7) |
| Exactly recommended | 15 (8.3) | 10 (13.9) | 5 (4.6) | Reference | 2 (3.7) | 13 (10.2) |
| More than recommended | 48 (26.5) | 18 (25) | 30 (27.5) | 3.33 (0.98–11.31) | 8 (14.8) | 40 (31.5) |
| Missing data | 24 (13.3) | 8 (14.8) | 16 (12.6) | |||
Note: Data are presented as total values and percentages, also presented according to chorionicity. Antenatal appointment number was categorized into those participants who received less than the recommended number, exactly the recommended number and more than the recommended number of appointments. This information was collected by local data collectors at each questionnaire point, this information was then adjusted for by the gestation at which participants delivered and chorionicity.
