“…Several studies have been conducted to pinpoint factors that affect the utilization of ANC services in Ethiopia. However, most of these studies were limited to small geographical areas, which may have had little influence on policy development and change (54)(55)(56)(57)(58)(59)(60)(61)(62). Furthermore, several studies failed to adopt the relevant counting model and instead relied on conventional methods of analysis, which have limitations in providing sufficient detail on a pattern of multiple ANC visits (43,(63)(64)(65)(66)(67).…”

IntroductionReceiving adequate antenatal care (ANC) had an integral role in improving maternal and child health outcomes. However, several factors influence the utilization of ANC from the individual level up to the community level factors. Thus, this study aims to investigate factors that determine ANC service utilization among mothers of deceased perinate using the proper count regression model.MethodSecondary data analysis was performed on perinatal death surveillance data. A total of 3,814 mothers of deceased perinates were included in this study. Hurdle Poisson regression with a random intercept at both count-and zero-part (MHPR.ERE) model was selected as a best-fitted model. The result of the model was presented in two ways, the first part of the count segment of the model was presented using the incidence rate ratio (IRR), while the zero parts of the model utilized the adjusted odds ratio (AOR).ResultThis study revealed that 33.0% of mothers of deceased perinates had four ANC visits. Being in advanced maternal age [IRR = 1.03; 95CI: (1.01–1.09)], attending primary level education [IRR = 1.08; 95 CI: (1.02–1.15)], having an advanced education (secondary and above) [IRR = 1.14; 95 CI: (1.07–1.21)] and being resident of a city administration [IRR = 1.17; 95 CI: (1.05–1.31)] were associated with a significantly higher frequency of ANC visits. On the other hand, women with secondary and above education [AOR = 0.37; 95CI: (0.26–0.53)] and women who live in urban areas [AOR = 0.42; 95 CI: (0.33–0.54)] were less likely to have unbooked ANC visit, while women who resided in pastoralist regions [AOR = 2.63; 95 CI: (1.02–6.81)] were more likely to have no ANC visit.ConclusionThe uptake of ANC service among mothers having a deceased perinate was determined by both individual (maternal age and educational status) and community (residence and type of region) level factors. Thus, a concerted effort is needed to improve community awareness through various means of communication by targeting younger women. Furthermore, efforts should be intensified to narrow down inequalities observed in ANC service provision due to the residence of the mothers by availing necessary personnel and improving the accessibility of service in rural areas.

Background Despite decades of implementation of maternal health care programs, the uptake of antenatal care services based on the recommended gestational age continues to be below the national and regional targets. Thus, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and factors related to the completion of four antenatal care visits among mothers who gave birth 6 months preceding the study. Method We conducted a community-based cross-sectional study using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The quantitative component included administering a pre-tested structured questionnaire to 466 mothers who gave birth 6 months preceding the study using a simple random sampling technique from respective Tabias. The quantitative result was analyzed using SPSS version 22. Bivariate and multivariate analysis was done to determine the association between independent and dependent variables. Variables were declared as statistically significant at P � 0.05 in multivariable logistic regression model. The qualitative interview data were collected from eight mothers and four key informants recruited through purposive sampling method. Results The overall prevalence of completion of four ANC visits based on the recommended time schedule was 9.9% (95% CI, 7.1-12.4). However, 63.9% of the participants attended four visits or more regardless of the recommended time schedule. Being member of community health insurance (AOR 2.140, 95% CI, 1.032-4.436), walking on foot less than or equal one hour to reach the health facility (AOR 3.921, 95% CI, 1.915-8.031), having workload at
