“…The objective of Antenatal care is to safeguard pregnant women by timely identification of risk factors, as well as the prevention and management of complications by healthcare professionals. According to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the health sector, the introduction of prenatal care is anticipated to lead to a decrease in both the Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) (Girotra et al, 2023;Damayanti et al, 2023).…”

Antenatal Care (ANC) services are an effort to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates. This study aims to analyze factors in the utilization of antenatal care among women of childbearing age in Nepal. This research method The Nepal Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) was carried out in the new era with official approval from the Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP), and the data collection period lasted from January 5 to June 22, 2022. The study population was women aged 15 to 49 years. who have given birth or experienced a stillbirth in the previous two years and have attended at least one antenatal care (ANC) visit. Data collection using questionnaires interviewed after they were discharged from the facility that provides delivery services. Data analysis using the JASP version 18 application to see the influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable. Bivariate data will be analyzed using chi-square analysis, and multivariate data will be analyzed using the logistic regression test. The research results showed that there was a relationship between age (p<0.001), place of residence (p<0.001), zone of residence (p<0.001), economy (p<0.001), education (p<0.001), number of children (p<0.001) women of childbearing age in Nepal with ANC visits. These factors greatly influence women of childbearing age in utilizing ANC services. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen ANC service policies and remind women of childbearing age to make at least 4 ANC visits during pregnancy so that examinations and visits for pregnant women can be carried out completely.</em></p><p><em> </em></p></td></tr></tbody></table></div><strong><em>Keywords : Antenatal Care, Women of childbearing age, Nepal</em></strong>

Background The associated factors and patterns of giving birth in home settings of rural areas have been extensively studied in Bangladeshi literature. However, urban areas still need to be explored, particularly with recent data. Therefore, the authors aimed to investigate the influential determinants of delivery at home in urban areas of Bangladesh. Materials and methods In this study, 1699 urban-dwelling women who had given birth within the previous 60 months of the survey and lived in urban areas were used. The secondary data were extracted from the latest Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey 2017–2018. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were applied along with the association among selected variables were examined by the Chi-square test. Results Findings depict that 36.49% of women who lived in urban areas of Bangladesh delivered at home, whereas, 63.51% delivered at different govt. and private health care facilities. Women who lived in Chittagong [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.11, 95% CI 1.24–3.60], Barisal [AOR = 2.05, 95% CI 1.16–3.64] and Sylhet [AOR = 1.92, 95% CI 1.08–3.43] divisions have more likelihood to deliver at home (36.85%). Urban women following Christian religion [AOR = 10.71, 95% CI 1.32–86.68] have higher odds of delivering child at home (0.47%). Urban women having three or more children before her latest delivery (22.37%) and who are employed (29.37%) have more likelihood to deliver at home. However, women aged between 25 and 34 years (43.50%), who have higher education (25.90%), play the role of household head (9.06%), have parity of more than two births (2.24%), and read daily newspapers (68.69%) had a lower chance of delivery at home. Furthermore, women from wealthier families (89.12%) and more antenatal care (ANC) visits (94.93%) were less likely to have a delivery at home. Conclusion Despite significant progress in women and reproductive health in Bangladesh, the proportion of delivery in the home in urban areas is alarming and should be emphasized more. The authors believe the identified factors will help design interventions and policy development on this issue.

“…Lowincome countries have an MMR of 462 per 100,000 live births, while high-income countries have 11 per 100,000 live births. 16 Overall MMR remains low in the United Kingdom, maternal mortality rates differ along racial and ethnic lines. Compared to White women, Black women, women of mixed ethnicity, and Asian women have a higher risk of dying during pregnancy or up to 6 weeks postpartum.…”

BACKGROUND: Postnatal care for six weeks after giving birth is vital for the health of both mother and newborn. The postnatal period is dangerous for both mother and baby, where morbidity and mortality are highly prevalent if proper care is not done. PNC visits should be more noticed, creating a missing link towards safe motherhood. This research examines the social and cultural influences that affect postnatal care practices among mothers with infants under one. METHOD: This study utilized a combination of methods, primarily emphasizing quantitative techniques. It was conducted in Madi, Rapti, and Ratnanagar municipalities in Chitwan, utilizing a cluster random sampling technique. Data was gathered through 527 face-to-face interviews utilizing a structured questionnaire for quantitative data, six focus group discussions and three key informant interviews for qualitative data. The quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed using logistic regression and by the thematic content analysis method, respectively. The statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 21. RESULT: Based on the study's findings, it was revealed that most participants surveyed were between the ages of 20 and 24 and engaged in household and agricultural work. Of the 527 respondents, 79.1% were aware of partial postnatal visits, only 20.9% knew about complete postnatal visits, and 11.8% reported practicing PNC visits. Our analysis, which employed binary logistic regression, uncovered that social and cultural factors significantly impacted postnatal care visits and practices. The most influential factors for PNC visits and practices were occupation, antenatal care visits, mode of delivery, time to reach healthcare facilities and healthcare-seeking behavior. Qualitative data was also collected through FGD and IDIs to support our quantitative data, and both analyses indicated that social and cultural factors influence postnatal care visits among mothers. CONCLUSION: Fewer mothers reported about aware and complete Postnatal care visit. The major confounding factors for PNC visits and practices were occupation, antenatal care visits, mode of delivery, time to reach health facilities, and healthcare-seeking behaviour. It is essential to involve both traditional and religious leaders to address these issues effectively. Local health organizations should conduct postnatal care visits by going door-to-door to identify and manage problems. Key words: Postnatal Care, Visit, Mother, Social, Cultural, Factors, Nepal
