Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: sub-optimal birth spacing is higher in sub-Saharan countries including Ethiopia. It can affect the economic, political and social aspects of a given country. Therefore, this study aimed to assess magnitude of sub-optimal child spacing practice and associated factors among childbearing women in Southern Ethiopia.
UNASSIGNED: a community based cross-sectional study was conducted from July to September 2020. A random sampling technique applied to select kebeles, and systematic sampling was employed to recruit study participants. Data were collected by pretested and interviewer administered questionnaire through face-to-face interviews. Data cleaned and checked for completeness, and analyzed by SPSS version 23. A p-value of < 0.05 was considered as cutoff point to declare the strength of statistical association with 95% of CI.
UNASSIGNED: magnitude of sub-optimal child spacing practice was 61.7% (CI: 57.7: 66.2). Not attending formal education (AOR= 2.1 (95% CI: 1.3, 3.3), family planning utilization for less than 3 years (AOR= 4.0 (95% CI: 2.4,6.5), being poor (AOR= 2.0 (95% CI: 1.1, 4.0), breastfeeding of less than 24 months (AOR= 3.4 (95% CI: 1.6,6.0); having more than 6 children (AOR= 3.1 (95% CI: 1.4,6.7); and waiting time ≥30 minutes (AOR= 1.8 (95% CI: 1.2,5.9) were predictors of sub-optimal birth spacing practices.
UNASSIGNED: sub-optimal child spacing was relatively high among the women of Wolaita Sodo Zuria District. Improving utilization of family planning, expanding all inclusive adult education, delivering community based continuous education on optimum breast-feeding practice, involving women in income generating activities, and facilitated maternal services were recommended to fill the identified gap.
摘要:
在包括埃塞俄比亚在内的撒哈拉以南国家,次优生育间隔较高。它可以影响经济,一个国家的政治和社会方面。因此,本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚南部育龄妇女中不良生育间隔的程度和相关因素.
于2020年7月至9月进行了一项基于社区的横断面研究。一种应用于选择kebeles的随机抽样技术,并采用系统抽样招募研究参与者。数据由预测试收集,面试官通过面对面访谈进行问卷调查。清理并检查数据的完整性,并通过SPSS第23版进行了分析。P值<0.05被认为是说明与95%CI的统计学关联强度的截止点。
次最佳儿童间距练习的幅度为61.7%(CI:57.7:66.2)。未参加正规教育(AOR=2.1(95%CI:1.3,3.3),计划生育利用率低于3年(AOR=4.0(95%CI:2.4,6.5),差(AOR=2.0(95%CI:1.1,4.0),母乳喂养少于24个月(AOR=3.4(95%CI:1.6,6.0);有超过6个孩子(AOR=3.1(95%CI:1.4,6.7);等待时间≥30分钟(AOR=1.8(95%CI:1.2,5.9))是次优分娩间隔的预测因素.
在WolaitaSodoZuria区的妇女中,次优生育间隔相对较高。提高计划生育的利用率,扩大全纳成人教育,提供基于社区的最佳母乳喂养实践持续教育,让妇女参与创收活动,建议提供便利的产妇服务,以填补已确定的空白。
