Paper Title:
Determinants of intrapartum and very early neonatal death among mothers who gave birth at Dessie comprehensive specialized Hospital, south Wollo, Dessie, Ethiopia 2021.
Abstract
Introduction: Intrapartum stillbirth and intrapartum-related neonatal deaths fatalities occur in great numbers all throughout the world. Neonatal mortality is unacceptably high in under developed nations during the first week of life, with nearly half of all deaths happening within the first 24 hours. The majority of the burden (90 percent) falls on low and middle-income countries, with South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa accounting for more than three quarters. Ethiopia has one of the highest perinatal mortality rates in the world, according to a World Health Organization research. As a result, the goal of this research was to find out what factors contributed to intrapartum and very early neonatal fatalities among mothers who gave birth at the Dessie referral hospital.
Methods: An institution-based case-control study was conducted from January 2021 to May 2021 in Dessie Referral Hospital. The data were collected using a pre-tested questionnaire from 315 participants (105 cases and 210 controls). The data were analyzed using SPSS binary logistic regressions. A P-value of less than 0.05 at 95% CI in the multivariable analysis was considered a statistically significant variable.
Result: Ninety (85.7%) cases were from outside of Dessie town and 80 (82.9%) Cases were married. Ninety nine (94.3%) cases and 196 (93.3%) controls were referred from nearby facilities. Referred from nearby health facility (AOR 3.40 95% CI: 1.07, 10.82), Residence of Dessie town (AOR = .38; 95% CI .17, .83), occupation (AOR = 2.41 95%CI: 1.33, 4.37) ,onset of labor (AOR= 2.90; 95% CI: 1.19, 7.05), mode of delivery (AOR = 7:30, 95% CI: 2.6, 20.54), gestational age (AOR = 3.42 95%CI: 1.51, 7.73), and birth weight (AOR = 2.45 95%CI: 1.25, 4.80) were significantly associated with Intrapartum and very early neonatal death.
Conclusion: Intrapartum and very early neonatal death were highly associated with uneducated mothers, Employed women, mothers referred from nearby health facility, initiation of labor by induction, delivery by cesarean section, gestational age less than 37 wks, and birth weight less than 2500gm.
