Abstract
Purpose: This study explored the experiences of Korean women of advanced maternal age undergoing prenatal genetic screening and diagnostic testing. Design: A descriptive, qualitative design was used to guide the study. Method: Ten participants were purposely recruited from a large metropolitan Korean hospital for clinical observations and individual, semistructured interviews. The content analysis method was used to analyze field notes and interview transcripts. Findings: Three themes emerged: reacting to an unfavorable screening result, dealing with the anticipated consequences of diagnostic testing, and realistically embracing the unborn child. Conclusions: The findings of this study inform the development of tailored interventions aimed at reducing the heavy emotional burdens placed on pregnant women and the stigma of bearing children with genetic conditions. Clear reciprocal communication and shared decision making should be promoted in the day-to-day practice of delivering health care for pregnant Korean women.
