Abstract(s)
Apesar da disponibilidade de diretrizes nacionais e internacionais sobre a intervenção com grávidas relativamente ao consumo de álcool, os estudos apontam que parece existir uma falha entre estas diretrizes e os conhecimentos e a prática profissional dos médicos. O presente estudo exploratório tem como objetivo geral explorar as perspetivas de um grupo de médicos que fazem o acompanhamento de grávidas acerca do consumo de álcool durante a gravidez. Os participantes foram oito médicos selecionados através de um processo de amostragem não probabilística por conveniência. Seguindo uma metodologia qualitativa foram realizadas entrevistas através de um guião semiestruturado, procedendo-se posteriormente a uma abordagem semi indutiva dos dados com recurso ao software NVivo. Os resultados principais indicam a informação insuficiente por parte dos próprios participantes, o desconhecimento de dados atuais sobre o tema e o desconhecimento de linhas orientadoras para a intervenção neste contexto. Demonstraram ainda diferentes opiniões sobre o que é um consumo de risco na gravidez e também uma prática inconsistente entre médicas, relatando o não cumprimento das normas internacionais e nacionais. Os resultados mostram a necessidade de aperfeiçoar e atualizar a informação e a prática dos médicos relativamente ao tema, a fim de melhorarem a qualidade da sua intervenção.

The present exploratory study aims to explore the perspectives about alcohol consumption during pregnancy with a group of doctors who follow up pregnant women. The participants were eight doctors selected through a non-probabilistic convenience sampling. Following a qualitative methodology, interviews were conducted through a semi-structured script, subsequently proceeding to a semi-inductive approach to the data using the NVivo software. The main results indicate insufficient information on the part of the participants, the lack of current data on the topic and the lack of guidelines for intervention in this context. They have also demonstrated different opinions about what is a risky consumption in pregnancy and an inconsistent practice among doctors, reporting the non-compliance with the international and national guidelines. The results show the need to improve and update doctors' information and practice about alcohol consumption during pregnancy, in order to improve quality of their intervention.
