摘要

Low levels of prenatal alcohol exposure can cause adverse neurobehavioural effects in children (Sayal et al. 2007). Still, around 35-50% of Dutch, pregnant women use alcohol (Health Council of the Netherlands 2005). Brief interventions are effective in reducing prenatal alcohol use (Stade et al. 2009), but information regarding facilitators and barriers to implementation of these interventions by health professionals such as midwives is not available. The present study investigated midwives' experiences with implementing health counselling to prevent prenatal alcohol use.
