Overview

Systematic review identifies effective behavioral interventions for improving adverse pregnancy outcomes, suggesting strategies to enhance maternal health.

Key Points

  • Behavioral interventions can enhance maternal outcomes for women at high risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.
  • Most studies focused on women with prepregnancy overweight or obesity, often excluding those with other cardiovascular disease risk factors.
  • Interventions combining diet and physical activity showed significant benefits, particularly for gestational weight gain and blood pressure.
  • Research highlights the need for standardized outcome measures to improve intervention effectiveness in diverse pregnant populations.
