ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The risk of death from complications relating to pregnancy and childbirth for women's lifetime is higher in developing countries. Improving maternal and child health through a well-organized institutional delivery service is central to achieving reduced maternal and child mortality. Despite the efforts that have been made to improve maternal health outcomes in Ethiopia, institutional delivery is still unacceptably low.OBJECTIVE:
This study was conducted to assess institutional delivery service utilization and associated factors in the study area.METHODS:
A Community-based cross-sectional study was conducted. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to employ a total of 546 women. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire and entered into EpiData version 3.1 and then exported to SPSS version 23.0. for analysis. Logistic regression models were used to determine factors associated with the outcome variable. Adjusted Odds ratios with 95% CI were computed to measure the strength of association and statistical significance was declared at p-value <0.05.RESULTS:
The Prevalence of institutional delivery in the study area was 38% (34%-42%). Factors significantly associated with institutional delivery were ANC visit 1.80 (1.12-2.91), knowledge of danger sign during pregnancy 3.60 (2.25-5.76), urban residency 2.09 (1.15-3.81), Parity 0.49 (0.25-0.95) accessibility of health facility 4.60 (2.01-10.89), husbands educational level primary 2.50 (1.27-4.91), secondary and above 2.36 (1.24-4.48), mothers occupation governmental employee 2.05 (1.00-4.18), and Private employee 2.42 (1.09-5.35).CONCLUSIONS:
The prevalence of institutional delivery in the District was low. Antenatal visits, residency, knowledge of pregnancy danger signs, parity, and accessibility of health facilities, maternal occupation, and husband education were factors significantly associated with institutional delivery.
