Abstract: Despite the known detrimental health effects of alcohol use during pregnancy, there are still health care (HCP) and social service providers (SSP) who do not promote complete abstinence. The purpose of this study was to explore the current practices of HCPs and SSPs when discussing alcohol use during pregnancy, and to understand their rationale for their specific recommendations. An online survey was completed by 1123 HCPs (n = 588) and SSPs (n = 535) that asked them to identify their approach to discussing alcohol and pregnancy. Participants had the option to further explain their current recommendations regarding alcohol use during pregnancy in an open-ended format. Open-ended responses were analyzed using a content analysis approach (n = 156). The majority of respondents recommend abstinence (83.9% of HCPs, n = 493; 78.4% of SSPs, n = 419), while 9.8% of HCPs (n = 57) and 2.2% of SSPs (n = 12) responded that low levels of consumption may be acceptable. HCPs may recommend low levels of consumption based on other international guidelines, limited evidence to suggest that one unit of alcohol is harmful, and as a harm reduction strategy. SSPs stated that they refer clients to HCPs for recommendations related to alcohol consumption, and that they prefer to provide information based on public health guidelines. This exploratory work may inform the development of resources to support HCPs and SSPs to recommend abstinence from alcohol throughout gestation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
