ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The non-pneumatic anti-shock garment (NASG) is a life-saving device that can help to avoid delays and prevent further complications in the case of obstetric hemorrhage. Although there are many fragmented primary studies on the NASG utilization in Ethiopia, the pooled utilization rate is unknown. In addition, a disagreement was observed among those studies while reporting the associated factors. Therefore, this study was intended to determine the pooled level of NASG utilization and its associated factors among obstetric care providers in Ethiopia.METHODS:
A total of 51 studies were retrieved from PubMed, Google Scholar, the African Journal of Online, direct open-access journals, and Ethiopian universities' institutional repositories. This study was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. The quality of studies was evaluated using the modified Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment tool. The data were extracted by two authors independently using Microsoft Excel and analyzed by Stata version 11. A random-effects model was applied to calculate the pooled level of NASG utilization and its associated factors. The PROSPERO registration number for the review is CRD42023414043.RESULT:
A total of 8 studies comprising 2,575 study participants were involved in this meta-analysis. The pooled utilization rate of NASG was found to be 39.56%. Having NASG training (pooled odds ratio (OR) = 3.99, 95%CI = 2.35, 6.77), good knowledge about NASG (OR = 2.92, 95%CI = 2.04, 4.17), a positive attitude towards NASG (OR = 3.17, 95%CI = 2.10, 4.79), and having ≥ 2 NASGs in the health facility (OR = 10.59, 95%CI = 6.59, 17.01) were significantly associated with NASG utilization.CONCLUSION:
Utilization of NASG for the treatment of obstetric hemorrhage was low in Ethiopia. To increase its utilization, Ministry of Health should improve the accessibility of NASG at each health facility and increase the Health professionals' knowledge and attitude through in-service and pre-service training.
