Background: Postnatalcareutilizationis the most neglected care in Ethiopian,despite a large proportion of maternal and neonatal deaths occurs during postnatal period. Evidence suggested that utilization of postnatal care averts major complications of the fetus and mother.But,proportion of rular women utilization of postnatal care is low in Ethiopia. Information about prevalence and factors which determine utilization of postnatal care utlization in rular women in Ethiopia is mandatory for policy making, and program design to enhance its utilization. Objective: Theobjective of this study was to determine the prevalence of utilization of postnatal care and to identify its determinant factorsamong rural women who gave birth in the past five yearsbefore Ethiopian demographic health survey, in 2016. Method: This study utilized data from Ethiopian demographic health survey2016 for analysis. It is a national two stage, cross sectional study. It analyzed data for rural women who gave birth at least one time in the past five year before data survey time. Logistic regression was applied to identify explanatory variables associated with outcome variable. Adjusted odds ratio with 95% confidence interval was computed and P-value< 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Result:The prevalenceof postnatal care utilizationamong rural women was 11.4%.Place of delivery[AOR=4.3, 95%CI, 1.4-5.2], ANCvisit [AOR=2.1, 95%CI, 1.1-3.9] and Women in the richest wealth quintile [AOR=2.97, 95%CI, 1.9-4.5] were factors associated with postnatal care service utilization among rural women in Ethiopia in 2016. Conclusion and recommendation: This study showed that prevalence of postnatal care utlization was low. Being in richest wealth quintile, history of ANC vist and place of delivery were positive predictors of postnatal care utlization among rural women. Regardless of proven strategies utilized to maximize utilization of postnatal care utlization by the government of Ethiopia, this study showed that prevalence is low in rural areas. Therefore, community awareness creation, increasing institutional coverage by expanding maternity waiting area and besides, the government should design and implement income increasing package among rural women.

In the maternity cycle post natal period is a danger time, because maternal & also new born deaths occur during this period, particularly just after the childbirth. So postnatal care in the first hour & days after childbirth could stop the mass of these deaths. To find the knowledge about postnatal care use among mothers in selected urban communities. It was a descriptive type of cross sectional study conducted purposively in selected 200 mothers who completed their puerperium period and had child birth within 3 months. Data was collected by self administered questionnaire. The study was conducted in selected vaccination centers of Mohakhali, Dhanmondi and Mohammadpur. The total period of study was 1 year from January to December 2014. Among 200 respondents them mean age was 25.02(±SD 6.53) years. Majority 184(92 %) were literate and 67% were housewife. About 93(46.5%) had 3-4 members in their family. 170(85%) were Muslims. About 191 (95.5%) had knowledge about PNC and 187(93.5%) used PNC. 106(56.7%) were used PNC for routine follow up. The respondent who knew about PNC more used that care than who had no knowledge about that (p<0.05). This study assessed the knowledge of mothers on their use of post natal care. The findings of the study indicated that postnatal service was quite satisfactory but still some intervention needed. Regular monitoring and supervision would certainly improve the quality of postnatal care service in Bangladesh.

Background: Postnatal care (PNC) is important for preventing morbidity and mortality in mothers and newborns. Even though its importance is highlighted, PNC received less attention than antenatal care. This study determines the level of PNC coverage and its determinants in Srilanka. Methods: This is a secondary analysis of the 2016 Demographic and Health Survey. Receiving full postnatal care (FPNC) was defined with a set of indicators to detect adequate care for mother and newborn. Demographic and socio-economic associated factors for receiving FPNC were identified using binary and multiple logistic regression. Variables that had marginal relationship with receiving FPNC which p-value less than or equal to 0.2 at binary analysis were selected and included in the multiple logistic regression models. We used manual backward stepwise regression to identify variables which had independent association with receiving FPNC on the basis of adjusted odds ratios (AOR), with 95% confidence interval (CI) and p-value less than 0.05. All analyses were performed in SPSS 25. Results: Of the 8813 women with a live birth in the last five years, more than 98% had timely institutional care from skilled staff. More than three-fourth of mothers (n=5104) received the FPNC according to WHO guideline. Four factors were positively associated with receiving FPNC: mothers received antenatal home visits by Public health midwife (AOR=1.98, 95% CI 1.65-2.39), mothers who got information about antenatal complications and places to go at antenatal clinics (AOR=1.56, 95% CI 1.27 -1.92), been Sinhala (AOR= 1.89, 95% CI 1.35-2.66) and having own mobile phone (AOR=1.19, 95% CI 1.02 -1.38). Mothers who are residing in rural area (AOR=0.697 95% CI = 0.52 – 0.93] compared to those who reside in urban areas and maternal age between 20 and 34 years [AOR= 0.72, 95% CI 0.54 – 0.97] compared to maternal age less than 20 years were detected as negatively associated. Conclusion: Receiving FPNC in Srilanka is found to be higher than other countries in the region. However, inequity remains to be a challenge. Few socio-demographic factors are associated with FPNC coverage. Strategies that aim to improve postnatal care should target improvement of social determinates of health.
