The aim of this study was to investigate the utilization of delivery services in the context of PMTCT in a rural community in South Africa. Based on a cross-sectional survey, the sample included 870 pregnant women who had delivered before recruited from five PMTCT clinics and surrounding communities. Results indicated that 55.9% had delivered their last child in a health care facility and 44.1% at home (mostly without assistance from a traditional birth attendant). The odds of access to the health facility were (1) women who stayed close to the hospital (OR=2.87), (2) those who had higher formal education (OR=l .55), (3) higher traveling costs (affordability) to get to nearest clinic (OR=1.77), and (4) those who were single (OR=1.58). Childbirth experiences of the mother or mother-in-law greatly influenced the delivery choices in terms of home delivery. The majority of the pregnant women were aware of mother-to-child HIV transmission but only 9% of the pregnant women had ever been tested for HIV. HIV knowledge, HIV testing behaviour and attitudes were found to be not associated with the delivery option.

The Impact

Background: This study was designed to assess the determinants of utilization of Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs) services by pregnant women in different communities in Ogbomoso, Nigeria.Methods: This was a community- based cross-sectional study. Fisher's formula was used to calculate the sample size and a total of 270 eligible pregnant women were enrolled for the study using multistage sampling technique. Data was collected using pretested structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 20 and results were presented in frequencies and percentages.Results: Factors found to have a significant influence on the utilization of TBA services in this study include: low educational status (p <0.001), lower socioeconomic status (p <0.001), and compassionate care given by the TBAs (p=0.004). Other factors include service proximity and lower cost of TBA services.Conclusions: The impact of TBAs and their services cannot be overemphasized in the present state of maternal and child health in Nigeria.  Lower educational status among others has been found to be a strong predictor of utilization of TBA services. There is, therefore, the need to improve the educational and socioeconomic status of women in order to allow them to access quality health care services that will safeguard their well-being. Inculcating compassionate care into orthodox healthcare delivery will go a long way to improve patronage and discourage TBA utilization.

High Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is mostly caused by a lack of information and a bad habit of pregnant women in high-risk pregnancy treatment. This condition causes an impact to high maternal mortality during childbirth. This study has aims to identify factors as the main construction of the Participatory Asset Community Development Research Action Model (YUDHIA). This study used a qualitative approach. The location of the study is at Cimanuk, Pandeglang, Banten. Informants were chosen based on purposive sampling and snowball techniques. Key informants were four pregnant women that had complication risk. Supporting informants were eight-person. Data collecting used in-depth interviews and recorded by a tape recorder. Analysis data used RAP techniques and released 12 themes that described the main factors in the construction of the YUDHIA model. The description was (1) development of community assets, such as physical, economic, environmental, human, and social assets. (2) Community participation, such as the dimension of community contribution, community development, and organization. This study is community participation has been already existed by forming desa siaga (standby village).

Compliance of antenatal care and election of birth helpers in NatunaPurposeThis study aimed to determine the association of ANC (Antenatal care) compliance with birth attendant choice in Natuna.MethodsThis study used a cross-sectional method. The subjects of the research were mothers in Natuna regency 2014. The variables were: independent variable (ANC compliance), the dependent variable (the birth attendant choice), and the control variables (age, maternal education, distance to the health facilities, parity). Data collection used questionnaires and interviews. The data analysis used descriptive and inferential analysis. The bivariable analysis used the chi-square test and multivariable analysis used logistic regression test with 95% of confidence interval (CI) and a significance level of p <0.05.ResultsBivariable and multivariable analysis showed significant correlations between ANC compliance with birth attendant choice. Pregnant women who did not comply doing ANC according to the standard that has been set at least four times had a chance two times more likely to give birth with the traditional birth attendant (TBA) than the pregnant women who complied to implement the ANC during pregnancy. Mothers with low education had a chance two times greater of choosing the TBA as birth attendant than women who are highly educated. Mothers with parity of >2 had a chance 1.9 times greater of choosing the TBA as birth attendant than women with parity ≤2.ConclusionsThere needs to be a control program from the health department working with community health workers to socialize awareness of the importance of the ANC. There needs to be the addition of TBA who are trained and partnered especially in remote areas because it cannot be denied there are still many people who choose TBA as a birth helper.

Background: Asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) in pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and obstetric outcomes if untreated. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and susceptibility profile of ASB among pregnant women attending antenatal clinics in traditional birth attendant homes in Ikono, Akwa-Ibom State.Methods: The study was a cross sectional survey using 350 pregnant women with ASB. Mid-stream clean catch urine samples were collected from the women using sterile containers. The urine samples were cultured, bacterial colonies were identified and antibiotic sensitivity was done. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.0 and significant was set at ≤0.05.Results: The overall prevalence was 33.4% using 350 asymptomatic pregnant women. The mean age was 26.21±3.6 years and aged 27-32 have the highest prevalence (13.4) of ASB. 55.1% attained primary school, while 33.4% had informal education, monoparous (54%), 3rd trimester was 44.6% with 15.8% positive cases. Multigravidae was 71.1% with 19.4% positive cases. There was significant association of age, education, parity, occupation, monthly income, etc with ASB. The most common isolates were Escherichia coli (29.9%), then Klebsiella pneumonia (19.7%). Pseudomonas aeruginosa was susceptible to gentamicin (92%), Ciprofloxacin (83%) imipenam (83%) and azetronam (75%), while Staphylococcus saprophyticus was susceptible to imipenam (90%), then gentamicin at 80%. Multi-drug resistant were widespread in most of the isolates.Conclusions: Multi-drug resistant were observed in most of the isolates. Continuous and collaborative surveillance of ASB and antimicrobial resistance pattern are essential to reduce the consequence of asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnant women.

More than 33% of Nigerian pregnant women do not use the Antenatal Care service during pregnancy. In 2015, for instance, World Health Organization (WHO) revealed that only 61% of Nigerian pregnant women had attended ANC at least once during their pregnancy period. Only 51% of these women met the WHO standard of a minimum of 4 visits. This ANC rate is, without doubt, lower than the WHO African region average of 77%. The situation in Wushishi and Zungeru communities of Niger State may not be different. Despite the number of health facilities available in these communities, some women of childbearing age do not access antenatal care. Most times, many of them lose their lives during delivery at home, some end up with complications or lose their babies at births. This situation raised concern why pregnant women do not attend antenatal care in health facilities around them? This paper examined the socio-cultural impediments to accessing antenatal care services among reproductive-aged women in Wushishi and Zungeru Communities of Niger State. We used a Multivariate Logistic Analysis. A total of 150 subjects were involved in this study comprising 83 from Zungeru and 67 from Wushishi. The questionnaire used for data collection was a structured consist of 17 items. The results indicated that ethnicity and preference for traditional birth attendant are major influences to accessing ANC in these communities

The unique and enormous culture of concealed pregnancy or “Kemel” in Gayo ethnic, low coverage of antenatal care for pregnant women in health workers and high numbers of neonatal mortality, and infection in infants with low birth weight were social determinants of health issues existing in Aceh. These were urgently observed to fi gure out solution in reducing low examination of antenatal care by pregnant women in Gayo. Increasing the interest of researchers to conduct this research. This descriptive study was based on socio-cultural phenomena that aff ect a “Kemel” pregnant woman. The results showed ‘Kemel’ vulnerability perceptions were indicated by keeping the pregnancy as a secret in case of being used by those who do not like their pregnancies. ’Kemel’ perceived severity aff ects the safety of women pregnancies. Pregnant women may get some threats such as: malnutrition, lack of calorie energy, anemia, newborn with low birth weight, premature newborn, and infectious diseases. “Kemel” cues to action, pregnant women check theirpregnancies after 5 months pregnancy to a traditional birth attendant. Soon after TBA claimed their pregnancies, they refer to midwives. This the reason why examination of antenatal care were very low. Family role in the social structure, the culture of the Gayo, parents-in-law and parents of pregnant women, have a great contribution in making decisions such as pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum cares. A marriage tradition of the Gayo, was when a woman pawned into a part of male family, she must follow its habits and traditions. Thus, intervention by forming an agent of change are highly recommended by involving parent in law.  Abstrak Tingginya budaya merahasiakan kehamilan/”Kemel”pada etnis Gayo, rendahnya cakupan antenatal care ibu hamil pada petugas kesehatan dan tingginya kematian neonatal, infeksi pada bayi dengan Berat badan lahir rendah, menambah ketertarikan peneliti untuk melakukan penelitian ini.
