ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Physical activity during pregnancy has been recommended as an effective measure to prevent various pregnancy complications. However, global physical activity participation during pregnancy is not optimal, and the factors influencing physical activity participation during pregnancy need to be further investigated. In China, where there are no localized guidelines for physical activity during pregnancy, the prevalence of meeting recommended physical activity levels among Chinese pregnant women is still unclear.

OBJECTIVES:

This study aimed to comprehensively review the prevalence of meeting recommended physical activity levels among pregnant women in China and to further explore the factors influencing physical activity participation during pregnancy.

DESIGN:

This was a systematic review and meta-analysis.

METHODS:

A systematic review was conducted in both English and Chinese databases from inception until August 1, 2023. Two reviewers independently screened literature, assessed study eligibility and extracted data. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality was used to evaluate methodological quality of included studies. The pooled prevalence was calculated using a random-effects model. Subgroup analyses were conducted to explore sources of heterogeneity.

RESULTS:

A total of 12 cross-sectional studies, including 11,323 Chinese pregnant women with a mean age ranging from 27.0 to 33.0 years, met the inclusion criteria. The prevalence of meeting recommended physical activity levels among pregnant women in China was 21.0 % (95 % confidence interval (CI)12.5 %-29.5 %). A higher prevalence of meeting recommended physical activity levels was observed among pregnant women who were in their second trimester, who were living in the southern region, who were assessed by validated questionnaires, and who used 150 min physical activity per week as a criterion for meeting recommendation.

CONCLUSIONS:

The findings suggested a low prevalence of meeting recommended physical activity levels among Chinese pregnant women, which was affected by a variety of factors. It is recommended that further research be conducted in the future to explore physical activity intervention strategies for women of childbearing age before and during pregnancy based on the factors affecting physical activity to improve physical activity compliance, maternal and child health and population quality.
