abstract="PURPOSE: This research was conducted to determine the exposure of pregnant women to intimate partner violence (IPV) during the Covid-19 pandemic and its influencing factors. <br><br>DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. <br><br>METHODS: This study included 456 pregnant women. The &quot;Pregnant Information Form&quot; and &quot;Intimate Partner Violence During Pregnancy Questionnaire&quot; were used to collect data. <br><br>FINDINGS: Exposure frequency to IPV during the pandemic and curfews were 44.1% and 43.9%, respectively. A significant relationship was found between exposure to IPV and the partner having wage-earning employment, marital relationship during Covid-19, the effect of the pandemic on spousal relationships, and gravida. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of IPV in pregnant women during and after the pandemic did not change significantly from IPV in pregnant women before the pandemic. CLINICAL EVIDENCE: To prevent and reduce partner violence during pregnancy, there is a need to evaluate IPV among women who apply for routine pregnancy examinations.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
