Intimate partner violence against HIV-Positive women on ART follow-up and associated factors in public health facilities of western Ethiopia.

INTRODUCTION: Intimate partner violence is the most pervasive but less recognized problem which affects millions of women world. It is more common among marginalized individuals including women affected by HIV. However, there is limited information regarding this problem among HIV-Positive Women in Ethiopia. Thus, the study was aimed to assess the magnitude and factors associated with intimate partner violence among HIV positive women in western Ethiopia. METHODS: A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted among HIV-positive women on ART follow-up in Nekemte town. A total of 420 women were selected by the simple random sampling technique and an interviewer-administered questionnaire was used for data collection. The data were entered to EpiData version 3.1 and analyzed by SPSS version 20. Univariable and mult- variable logistic regression analysis with their corresponding odds ratio (95%CI) were computed, and statistical significance was declared at p < 0.05. RESULTS: The magnitude of intimate partner violence among HIV-positive Women during Lifetime and since diagnosed with HIV was 49.29%, [(95% CI: 44.3-53.6%)] and 41.67%, [(95% CI: 37.1-45.7%)] respectively. Skipping daily ART medication ≥ 6 times/month [AOR = 3.56; (95% CI 1.18, 10.74)], experiencing controlling behavior by a partner[AOR = 6.37; (95% CI 3.26, 12.44)], women inter-parental witness of violence [AOR = 1.74; (95% CI 1.09, 2.79)], women having favorable attitude that justify wife-beating [AOR = 1.76; (95% CI 1.06, 2.94)]and non-disclosure of test result to partner [AOR 0.38; (95% CI 0.22, 0.66)] were factors associated with intimate partner violence since diagnosed with HIV. CONCLUSION: The magnitude of intimate partner violence among HIV-positive Women on ART follow-up was found to be high in the study area. Therefore, integrating intimate partner violence victim screening with ART services, empowering HIV-positive women, and increasing their awareness of sexual and reproductive rights is needed.

Burden of intestinal parasitic infections and associated factors among pregnant women in East Africa: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: The ultimate goal of preventing intestinal parasites among pregnant women is to reduce maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality. Numerous primary studies were conducted in East Africa presented intestinal parasite infection and associated factors among pregnant women. However, the pooled finding is not known. Therefore, this review aimed to identify the pooled prevalence of intestinal parasite infection and its determinants among pregnant women in East Africa. METHODS: Articles published from 2009 to 2021 were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and HINARI databases. The search for unpublished studies such as thesis and dissertations was checked in Addis Ababa University and Africa Digital Library. PRISMA checklist was used to report the review. Articles published in the English Language were considered. The data were extracted by two authors using data extraction checklists on Microsoft excel. Heterogeneity among the included studies was checked using I2 statistics on forest plots. Sensitivity and sub-group analyses were conducted to assess the presence of primary studies, and study characteristics responsible for the observed heterogeneity. RESULTS: Of the 43 identified articles, about 23 articles were removed due to duplications. Then, by assessing the abstracts and full texts, four articles were removed because they failed to meet the eligibility criteria. Finally, 16 articles were included in the systematic and meta-analysis.The pooled prevalence of intestinal parasites among pregnant women in East Africa was 38.54 (28.77, 48.32). In this study, variables like residing in rural areas (OR: 3.75; CI: 1.15,12.16), availability of latrine(OR: 2.94; 95% CI: 2.22, 3.91), eating raw fruits/vegetables (OR: 2.44; 95% CI: 1.16, 5.11). and sources of water as unprotected sources (OR: 2.20; 95% CI: 1.11,4.35) show statistically significant association with the increased burden of intestinal parasites among pregnant women. CONCLUSION: The burden of intestinal parasite infection among pregnant women in East Africa was high. Therefore, efforts should be made in deworming pregnant women at the community and institutional level by stakeholders to reduce the burden of intestinal parasite infections and related complications.

Essential newborn care practices and associated factors among home delivered mothers in Guto Gida District, East Wollega zone.

BACKGROUND: Essential Newborn Care is a set of strategic and cost-effective interventions planned to improve the health of newborns through the care they receive from birth up to 28 days. In the current study area, little is known about the prevalence of essential newborn care practices and its associated factors. This study was aimed to assess the prevalence of essential newborn care practice and its associated factors among home-delivered mothers in Guto Gida district, western Ethiopia. METHODS: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Guto Gida district from September 5 to 15, 2020. Data were collected by interviewing 601 systematically selected home-delivered women. Descriptive statistics were employed to describe frequency and percent. Binary logistic regression analysis was employed to identify candidate variables for the final model. Variables with p-value less than 0.25 at bivariate logistic regression were considered as the candidate variable and entered into multivariable logistic regression model. Finally, multivariable logistic regression was employed to identify associated factors at p-value less than 0.05, and the strength of association was described by adjusted odds ratios with 95% CI. RESULTS: The study shows that the level of essential newborn care practices was 168 (28%) (23.9-31.4). In this study, women in the first wealth quantile (AOR [95% CI] = 0.64 [0.34-0.97]), women who had one live birth (AOR [95% CI] = 0.51 [0.22-0.87]), women who lost their neonate before the study period (AOR [95% CI] = 0.11 [0.05-0.22]) were less likely to practice essential newborn care. Women who were advised on essential newborn care practice during a home visit by health extension workers (AOR [95% CI] = 3.45[1.56-7.26]), women who attended antenatal care during their current pregnancy (AOR [95% CI] = 1.79 (1.21-3.36]), and women who were attended at their birth by health extension workers (AOR [95% CI] = 3.29 [2.13-5.94]) were more likely to practice essential newborn care. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the prevalence of essential newborn care practice was low (28%), as compared with the World Health Organization recommendation that it should be 100%. The wealth quantile, number of live births, home visits by health extension workers, antenatal care, birth attendant, and neonatal death were independent predictors of essential newborn care practices.

Determinants of perinatal mortality at tertiary hospitals in East Wollega, Western Ethiopia: a case-control study.

OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to determine predisposing factors of perinatal mortality among deliveries at tertiary hospitals in East Wollega, Western Ethiopia. METHODS: This institutional-based unmatched retrospective case-control study involved 810 samples (270 perinatal deaths and 540 controls) selected from the study hospitals. For each case, two controls were selected. Data were collected using a pretested structured questionnaire. Data were entered into EpiData Version 3.1 and exported to SPSS Version 25 for analysis. Descriptive analysis and logistic regression were performed. The adjusted odds ratio with 95% confidence interval was calculated, and statistical significance was declared at a P-value of <0.05. RESULTS: The statistical analysis revealed the following independent determinants of perinatal mortality: rural residence, lack of antenatal care, preterm delivery, induction of labor, presence of obstetric complications, breech presentation, shoulder presentation, low birth weight, congenital malformation, and not using a partograph. CONCLUSION: Given the determinant factors of perinatal mortality in the study area, health facilities are recommended to implement appropriate antenatal care, intrapartum care, and neonatal care to prevent perinatal mortality. They are also advised to use partographs and ensure better access to antenatal care facilities.

Menstrual hygiene management practice and its associated factors among in-school adolescent girls in Western Ethiopia.

BACKGROUND: Adolescent girls should practice good menstrual hygiene to enhance their health and educational attainment. However, socio-cultural restrictions and limited water, sanitation, and hygiene in school environments continued to make it difficult for in school adolescent females to practice good menstrual hygiene management. So, the main aim of this study was to assess menstrual hygiene management practice and its associated factors among in-school adolescent girls in the secondary schools of Gimbi town, western Ethiopia. METHODS: A school-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 378 adolescent girls in Gimbi town secondary schools. The study participants were selected by using stratified random sampling techniques. Pretested self-administered Afan Oromo questionnaire with sociodemographic characteristics, information and knowledge about menstruation, and practice of menstrual hygiene management, as well as observational checklist to assess school environment were used to collect the data. Data were cleaned, coded, and entered into Epi-info version 7.2.0.4 and exported to SPSS version 25 for statistical analysis. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with the practice of menstrual hygiene management and P-values less than 0.05 was used to declare statistical significance. RESULTS: Out of 378 respondents, 163 (43.1%) (38-48) of adolescent girls had good menstrual hygiene management practice. Being urban resident (AOR = 3.48, (95% C.I:1.99-6.08), having mother with secondary level of education (AOR = 2.71, 95%CI: 1.15,6.42), having mother with educational level of college and above (AOR = 3.30, 95%CI1.28,8.50), having discussion about menstruation with parents (AOR = 2.42,95%CI:1.45,4.04), and having knowledge about menstruation (AOR = 2.94, 95% CI: 1.69-5.13) were factors associated with good menstrual hygiene management practice. CONCLUSION: In this study, good menstrual hygiene management practice is low among in school adolescent girls. Place of residence, maternal educational level, discussion about menstrual issue with parent, and having knowledge about menstruation were factors associated with good menstrual management practice. Stakeholders should give appropriate awareness and health education related to menstrual hygiene for adolescent girls at all levels.

Quality of antenatal care in selected public health facilities of West Ethiopia.

BACKGROUND: Ante natal care (ANC) is a key entry point for a pregnant woman to receive abroad range of promotion and preventive health services. Quality of ANC has paramount role to ensure better maternal and neonatal outcome. OBJECTIVE: To assess the quality of antenatal care services at public health facilities of western Ethiopia. METHODS: Facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from May 30th to June 30th, 2016. All public health facilities in the Kellem Wollega Zone of West Ethiopia were audited, 316 medical records were reviewed, and 316 pregnant women were interviewed. The data was entered using EPI Data version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Descriptive statistics, binary, and multiple logistic regressions were conducted. Variables with a P-value of <0.05 were considered as statistically significant associated factors. RESULTS: A total of 316 pregnant women were enrolled in the study. All facilities were categorized as "good" by the possession of necessary equipment, 3/4 by basic amenities and 87.34% by general and gynecologic examination. The information was provided for 222(86.21%), which is categorized as poor. About 252 (79.7%) of the women were satisfied with ANC. A urine sample taken during ANC visit [(AOR= 3.36 (95 % CI= 1.70, 6.61)], and counseling on nutrition during pregnancy [(AOR= 2.27 (95 % CI=1.16, 4.45)] were predictors of client satisfaction on ANC. CONCLUSIONS: In this study quality of ANC was labeled good for structural aspects and poor for process aspects of quality. In terms of outcome aspects, the majority of pregnant women were satisfied with the ANC they received. A urine sample taken during the ANC visits and being counseled on nutrition during pregnancy were predictors for client satisfaction on ANC. Concerned bodies need to improve laboratory tests and information provision.

Determinants of uterine rupture at public hospitals of western Ethiopia: A case-control study.

Introduction: Uterine rupture is a separation of the entire thickness of the uterine wall with the extrusion of fetal parts to the peritoneal cavity. It contributes to high maternal and perinatal mortality in Ethiopia. This study was aimed to identify determinants of uterine rupture among mothers who gave birth at East Wollega Zone public hospitals. Methods: A facility-based unmatched case-control study was conducted among 239 samples (47 cases and 192 controls) from 5 June 2019 to 30 September 2019. Cases were those with uterine rupture, and controls were those free from uterine rupture. Cases were selected consecutively, and controls were selected using a systematic sampling method. For analysis, data were entered into Epi-data version 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 20. Descriptive statistics were performed to describe the variables. Binary and multivariable logistic regression were used in the analysis. The outputs were presented using an adjusted odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals. Results: Two hundred thirty-nine (47 cases and 192 controls) mothers who gave birth in public hospitals in the East Wollega zone were interviewed, making a response rate of 100%. Living in an urban area (adjusted odds ratio = 0.219, 95% confidence interval: 0.067, 0.717), prolonged labor (adjusted odds ratio = 5.401, 95% confidence interval: 1.825, 15.981), obstructed labor (adjusted odds ratio = 4.333, 95% confidence interval: 1.276, 14.715), previous history of C/S (adjusted odds ratio = 6.5261, 95% confidence interval: 1.889, 22.554), and having no history of female genital cutting (adjusted odds ratio = 0.190, 95% confidence interval: 0.053, 0.682) were predictors of uterine rupture. Conclusion: In this study, socio-demographic, maternal nutrition, obstetric, and health system-related factors were identified as risks of uterine rupture. Particular emphasis should be given to modifiable risk factors to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality in the study area.

Family and Social Support Among Patients on Anti-Retroviral Therapy in West Wollega Zone Public Hospitals, Western Ethiopia: A Facility-Based Cross-Sectional Study.

Background: Poor family and social support is a problem for patients taking antiretroviral therapy (ART), but it protects them against the negative consequences of stress, reducing morbidity and mortality among peoples living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWHIV). Objective: This study aimed to assess family and social support and the associated factors among patients on antiretroviral therapy in West Wollega Public Hospitals. Methods: A facility-based cross-sectional study design was conducted among 329 respondents attending antiretroviral therapy (ARV) clinics in West Wollega Public Hospitals from September 1-30, 2020. Data were collected by simple random sampling methods using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used. The strength and presence of statistical association were assessed using adjusted odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval. Results: About 266 (66.4%) of the respondents had low family and social support. Being female sex [AOR (95% CI)=0.066 (0.013-0.338)], failing to discuss with family or society [AOR (95% CI)=0.275 (0.100-0.753)], lack of information on support [AOR (95% CI)=0.314 (0.104-0.951)], and non-disclosure of HIV status to family [AOR (95% CI)=0.227 (0.084-0.916)] were associated with family and social support. Conclusion: In this study, family and social support to people living with HIV/AIDS is low. Being female sex, feelings of negative treatment, lack of discussion on support, lack of information about support, and failure to disclose HIV status were associated with low family and social support. Information, education, and communication should be intensified to increase the awareness of the community, family, and people living with HIV related to support for people living with HIV.

Determinants of uterovaginal prolapse in Western Ethiopia.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Uterovaginal prolapse is a significant public health concern in developing countries like Ethiopia where access to health care is limited. It significantly affects women's health and productivity. Thus, it is very important to identify determinant factors and take preventive actions. METHODS: A hospital-based unmatched case-control study was conducted on 86 cases and 258 controls who attended gynecologic outpatient departments in Nekemte town from May 1 to July 30, 2019. Cases were women with grade II, III and IV uterovaginal prolapse while controls were women free from uterovaginal prolapse but with other gynecologic diseases. Data were collected using pretested interviewer-administered questionnaires, and measurements on height and weight were taken to calculate the women's body mass index. Data were entered using Epi Data version 3.1, and analysis was carried out by SPSS version 20. Descriptive, bivariate and multivariable logistic regressions were performed. The adjusted odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval was used, and statistical significance was declared at p < 0.05. RESULTS: This study revealed age ≥ 40 years (AOR = 10.49; 95% CI: 4.03, 27.35), duration of labor ≥ 24 h (AOR = 8.32; 95% CI: 3.58, 19.33), instrumental delivery (AOR = 7.40; 95% CI: 1.21, 45.28), non- utilization of family planning (AOR = 3.14; 95% CI: 1.32, 7.47) and underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2) (AOR = 5.30; 95% CI: 1.83, 15.33) were determinants of uterovaginal prolapse. CONCLUSION: Age ≥ 40 years, prolonged labor, instrumental delivery, non-utilization of family planning and underweight were identified as determinant factors of uterovaginal prolapse. Thus, family planning service utilization and appropriate and timely obstetric care are advisable.

Seroprevalence of Hepatitis B Virus and Associated Factors among Pregnant Women Attending Antenatal Care Services at Public Health Facilities in Nekemte Town.

BACKGROUND: Viral hepatitis is an emerging global health problem. A pregnant mother infected with the hepatitis B virus has a high rate of vertical transmission, causing adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes. Understanding the magnitude of the problem and associated factors has paramount importance to avert such adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to assess the seroprevalence of hepatitis B virus and associated factors among pregnant women attending antenatal care clinics at public health facilities in Nekemte town. METHODS: An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 277 pregnant women attending antenatal care at public health facilities in Nekemte town from June 1 to July 30, 2020. All public health institutions in Nekemte town (two hospitals and one health center) were recruited, and study participants were selected by using a systematic sampling method. The data were collected using pretested and structured questionnaires using a face-to-face interview, and a blood sample was collected to test for hepatitis B surface antigen. Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify factors significantly associated with hepatitis B virus infection. Variables with a p value < 0.05 were considered statistically significant predictors of the outcome variable. RESULT: The overall seroprevalence of hepatitis B virus infection was 16 (5.8%) [95% CI: 3.2-8.7], which indicates intermediate endemicity. History of abortion (AOR =6.155; 95% CI: 1.780, 21.291), history of contact with hepatitis patient (AOR =7.178; 95% CI: 1.702, 30.279), and having multiple sexual partners (AOR =6.788; 95% CI: 1.701, 27.086) had a statistically significant association with hepatitis B surface antigen seropositivity. CONCLUSION: Hepatitis B virus seroprevalence among pregnant women in this study shows intermediate endemicity. Therefore, health professionals should provide health information on the risk of having multiple sexual partners, risk factors of unprotected contact with hepatitis patients, and abortion for pregnant women during their antenatal care visits.

Prevalence of anemia and its associated factors among pregnant women attending antenatal care follow up at Wollega University referral hospital, Western Ethiopia.

BACKGROUND: Even if anemia is a worldwide public health problem affecting numerous people in all age groups, particularly the burden of the problem is higher among pregnant women. Anemia is estimated to contribute to more than 115,000 maternal deaths and 591,000 prenatal deaths globally per year. Maternal mortality is the prime health indicator in any society. Therefore, determining the prevalence of anemia and assessing its associated factors among pregnant women might help for the intervention of the problem. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of anemia and its associated factors among pregnant women attending Antenatal Care (ANC) at Wollega University Referral Hospital, Western Ethiopia. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Institution based cross-sectional study was conducted at antenatal care (ANC) departments of Gynecology and Obstetrics, and MCH at Wollega University Referral Hospital from July 15-22, 2019. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select the study unit. The data were collected using questionnaires, physical examination, and laboratory investigation. After collection, the data were entered using Epi Data version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 20 statistical software. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of anemia. Finally, the result was presented using text, tables, and charts. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of anemia using a cut off level of hemoglobin < 11 g/dl (< 33% Haematocrit) was 51 (17.8%). Out of all anemic pregnant women, 19 (37.25%) were mildly anemic, 24 (47%) were moderately anemic and 8 (15.68%) were severely anemic. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that Birth interval of less than 2 years (AOR = 2.56 CI [2.84-4.52]), history of malarial attack in the past 12 months (AOR = 2.585 CI [1.181-5.656]) and engaging into daily laborer occupation (AOR = 8.33 CI [2.724-25.497]) showed significant association with maternal anemia. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of anemia among pregnant women in this study is high. Having a birth interval of < 2 years, having a history of malarial attack in the past 12 months, and being engaged in daily laborer occupation were factors associated with anemia among pregnant women. Thus, contraceptive methods and information to space children, information, and services to prevent malaria and economically empowering women is needed to prevent anemia among pregnant women in the study area.

Factors Affecting Choice of Childbirth Place among Childbearing Age Women in Western Ethiopia: A Community-Based Cross-Sectional Study.

BACKGROUND: Access to proper medical attention and hygienic conditions during delivery can reduce the risk of complications and infections that may lead to serious illness or death or for the mother, baby, or both. In Ethiopia, the high maternal mortality rate with delivery by unskilled birth attendants shows low utilization of maternal health services. OBJECTIVE: This study was aimed at assessing factors determining the choice of childbirth place among women of childbearing age in Jimma Arjo District. METHOD: A cross-sectional design was conducted in Jimma Arjo District, East Wollega Zone, Ethiopia, from March 20 to April 20, 2018. Multistage sampling technique was used to select a total sample of 506 participants. Data were collected using structured questionnaires to interview women of childbearing age with two trained data collectors. Data was entered into Epi Info and exported to SPSS software version 20 for analysis. Data was checked for its completeness, cleaned, entered, and analyzed accordingly. Bivariate and multivariable data analyses were used to examine factors affecting choice of childbirth place. RESULTS: A total of 506 women participated in this study, giving a response rate of 97.8%. The study investigated that home delivery was found to be 200 (39.5%)in the study area. Factors found to be statistically associated with choice of institutional delivery at p < 0.05 were history of obstetric difficulties (AOR = 6, 95%CI = (2.08, 17.60)), woman educational status (AOR = 4.4, 95%CI = (1.47, 13.42)), husband educational status (AOR = 4, 95%CI = (1.43, 11.60)), two or more ANC visits (AOR = 4, 95%CI = (1.95, 8.52)), and accessibility to vehicle transportation (AOR = 2.8, 95%CI = (1.23, 6.46)). CONCLUSION: Preferring health facility as the birthplace in this study seems relatively better compared to other studies. It is shown that both mothers and their husbands attending secondary and greater educational level, history of obstetric difficulties, two or more ANC visits, and physical accessibility to health care facility have influenced mothers to prefer a health institution as the childbirth place. Therefore, any programs aimed at increasing the choice of institutional delivery should work on increasing ANC attendance and transportation facilities in the study area.

Utilization of long-acting and permanent contraceptive methods and associated factors among married women in Adama town, Central Ethiopia: community based cross-sectional study.

BACKGROUND: Long-acting and permanent contraceptive methods have clear advantages over short-acting methods of contraception that benefit both clients and health systems. Despite this importance, studies show that the proportion of women currently using long acting and permanent contraceptive methods are significantly lower than the proportion using short-acting methods. OBJECTIVE: The main aim of the study was to assess the level of utilization of long acting and permanent contraceptive methods and associated factors among married women in Adama town. METHODOLOGY: Community Based Cross-Sectional Study was conducted in four kebeles of Adama town from April 15-30, 2015. Multistage sampling technique was used to select the study participants. The collected data was cleaned and entered using Epi info 3.5.3 and analyzed using statistical package for social science version 20.0. Factors associated with utilization of long acting and permanent contraceptive methods were identified using logistic regression model. RESULT: In this study, the magnitude of long acting and permanent contraceptive methods was 20.9%. Implant, Intra-Uterine devices (IUDs) and tubal ligation accounted for 16.1, 4.6, and 0.2% respectively. Current use of long acting and permanent contraceptive methods was higher among women who had high knowledge (AOR = 5.26, 95% CI = 1.90-14.69), positive attitude (AOR = 3.25, 95% CI = 1.60-6.58) and women who had 3-4 children (AOR [95%CI] =2.3[1.14-4.63]) compared to those who had no child. CONCLUSION: Current use of long acting and permanent contraceptive methods in Adama town was low. Level of knowledge, attitude about the methods, and number of children were factors affecting utilization of long acting and permanent contraceptive methods. Targeted Information Education Communication Intervention should be intensified to improve the utilization of these methods.

Assessment of Youth-Friendly Service Quality and Associated Factors at Public Health Facilities in Southern Ethiopia: A Facility-Based Cross-Sectional Study.

BACKGROUND: Evidence shows that services for youths are poorly coordinated and uneven in quality. There is a lack of evidence which informs the level of youth-friendly service quality in the study area. So, this study fills the information gaps and recommends practical solutions. OBJECTIVE: The main aim of the study was to assess youth-friendly service quality and associated factors at public health facilities in Arba Minch town, Southern Ethiopia. METHODS: Facility-based quantitative cross-sectional study supplemented with the qualitative design was conducted from September to December 2017 at two public health centers in Arba Minch town. Sample sizes of 403 young clients were included in the study using a systematic sampling technique. Data was collected by using an interview-administered questionnaire and observation checklist. Quantitative data analysis was made using SPSS version 20.0 to identify the association between the dependent and independent variables. Qualitative findings were coded and analyzed by using content analysis in Microsoft Excel. Finally, results are presented using narrations, tables, and figures. RESULTS: A total of 403 youth-friendly service clients participated in the study. The overall score input, process, and youth clients' satisfaction was 54.41%, 42.0%, and 49.1%, respectively. Age (15-19) [AOR (95% CI) = 3.2 (1.4-7.8)], employment [AOR (95% CI) = 6.4 (2-17)], place of YFS [AOR (95% CI) = 0.35 (0.1-0.8)], frequency of visit [AOR (95% CI) = 0.03 (0.0-0.3)], waiting time [AOR (95% CI) = 0.02 (0.0-0.09)], and comfort with providers' sex [AOR (95% CI) = 0.07 (0.02-0.2)] were factors which are significantly associated with client satisfaction in this study. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: The study revealed that the overall quality of youth-friendly health service is below-set criteria (not good quality) in its all components, i.e., structural, process, and output. So, improvement of facility setup, client-provider interaction, and service sensitivity to all young groups and waiting time of services is essential.
