Maternal Satisfaction with Intrapartum Nursing Care and Its Associated Factors among Mothers Who Gave Birth in Public Hospitals of North Wollo Zone, Northeast Ethiopia: Institution-Based Cross-Sectional Study.

ABSTRACT: Background Now a day, satisfaction had been identified as the major index to assess the quality of health-care provision in the world including Ethiopia. Mothers judge the quality of intrapartum care received based on their satisfaction with the services provided, thus influencing their utilization of the available health facilities. Therefore, this study aimed to assess maternal satisfaction with intrapartum care and associated factors among mothers who gave birth in public hospitals in North Wollo Zone, Northeastern Ethiopia, 2019. Methods Institutional-based cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted in public hospitals of North Wollo Zone, and a total of 398 study participants were selected by using a systematic random sampling method. Data was collected using a standardized questionnaire by direct interviewing of study participants, and data was analyzed using SPSS 24 versions to determine the frequency of variables. Logistic regression was carried out to identify factors associated with maternal satisfaction. Results From the total of 398 study participants, about 51% of women were satisfied with the hospital-based intrapartum nursing care. Being rural in residency (AOR: 2.03; 95% CI: 1.05-3.93), time to be seen by health-care providers (AOR: 2.82; 95% CI: 1.46-5.46), having history of ANC follow-up (AOR: 3.73; 95% CI: 1.12-12.57), and getting adequate meal (AOR: 3.96; 95% CI: 1.13-13.83) had showed statistical significant association with maternal satisfaction. Conclusion In this study, the overall maternal satisfaction with intrapartum nursing care was low. Therefore, improving ANC follow-up, early examined by health-care providers, and getting adequate meal while in labour and delivery might enhance women satisfaction with intrapartum nursing care services.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study is aimed to assess factors associated with knowledge, attitude, and practice of COVID-19 among health care professional's working in South Wollo Zone Hospitals, Northeast Ethiopia.MethodsInstitution-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 422 health care professionals from 10 July to 10 August 2020, at the South Wollo Zone. A pre-tested self-administered structured questionnaire was used to collect the data. Both bi- and multi-variable logistic regressions were fitted to identify variables significantly associated with the outcome variables. Adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence interval and p-value < 0.05 were used to determine significant factors.ResultsAbout 92.4%, 64%, and 55% of the respondents had good knowledge, favorable attitude, and good practices toward corona virus disease, respectively. Being female (adjusted odds ratio = 0.23, confidence interval: 0.10, 0.56), age ⩾ 35 years (adjusted odds ratio = 0.14, confidence interval: 0.22, 0.84), being unmarried (adjusted odds ratio = 0.20, confidence interval: 0.70, 0.59), getting information from radio and television (adjusted odds ratio = 6.02, confidence interval: 2.09, 17.36), having average monthly income 93.55-163.67 USD (adjusted odds ratio = 8.00, confidence interval: 0.94, 33.10), and average monthly income > 163.70 USD (adjusted odds ratio = 11.41, confidence interval: 1.41, 15.23) were significantly associated with good knowledge about COVID-19. In addition, being unmarried (adjusted odds ratio = 0.70, confidence interval: 0.49, 0.97), having bachelor of science degree and above (adjusted odds ratio = 1.87, confidence interval: 2.24, 2.83), and getting information from seminars and workshops (adjusted odds ratio = 0.59, confidence interval: 0.35, 0.98) had association with good practice toward COVID-19 prevention and control method.ConclusionMore than 90% of the health care workers have good knowledge; nearly half of the respondents had unfavorable attitudes and poor practice toward COVID-19. The findings imply that the government and other stakeholders should implement further strategies for enhancing to change health care professional's attitude and encourage to practice prevention and control methods.

Project description:BackgroundEpilepsy is thought to be caused by witchcraft, evil spirit, and God's punishment for sins in many developing countries. As a result, people with epilepsy and their families usually suffer from stigma, discrimination, depression, and other psychiatric problems. Thus, this study aimed to assess the quality of life and its associated factors among epileptic patients attending public hospitals in North Wollo Zone, Northeast Ethiopia.MethodsAn institution-based cross-sectional study design was employed in this study. A simple random sampling technique was utilized. Health-related quality of life was measured based on the total score of the Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory (QOLIE-31) instrument. Data were entered into Epi-data 3.1 statistical package and exported to SPSS Version 20 for further analysis. Linear regression models were used to assess the relationship between quality of life and the independent variables. Statistically significant values were declared at a P-value of < 0.05.ResultsA total of 395 patients participated in the study making the response rate 98.5%. The mean age of the participants was 32.39 ±10.71 years. More than half, 199 (50.4%) of epileptic patients had an overall weighted average health related quality of life score of mean and above. Male sex (B = 4.34, 95%CI, 0.41, 8.27, P = 0.03), higher educational status (B = 7.18, 95%CI, 1.39, 13.00, P = 0.015) and age at onset of epilepsy (B = 0.237, 95%CI, 0.02, 0.45, P = 0.035) were associated with increased health related quality of life score. On the other hand, family history of epilepsy (B = -4.78, 95%CI,-9.24,-0.33, P = 0.035), uncontrolled seizure (B = -11.08, 95%CI,-15.11,-7.05, P < 0.001), more than 5 pre-treatment number of seizures (B = -4.86, 95%CI,-8.91,-0.81, P = 0.019), poor drug adherence (B = -11.65, 95%CI,-16.06,-7.23, P < 0.001), having moderate (B = -4.526, 95%CI,-8.59,-0.46, P = 0.029) to sever (B = -12.84, 95%CI,-18.30,-7.37, P < 0.001) anxiety and depression, believing that epilepsy is caused by evil spirit (B = -7.04, 95%CI,-11.46,-2.61, P = 0.002), drinking alcohol (B = -5.42, 95%CI,-10.72,-0.13, P = 0.045), and having other co-morbidities (B = -9.35, 95%CI,-14.35,-4.36, P < 0.001) were significantly negatively associated with the health related quality of life score among epileptic patients.ConclusionsOnly around half of the epileptic patients have a good health-related quality of life. In addition, multiple variables including family history, uncontrolled seizure, and poor drug adherence were associated with quality of life among epileptic patients. Hence, targeting these variables in epilepsy management is recommended.

Project description:BackgroundOne of the key strategies for reducing maternal and perinatal morbidities and mortalities is the provision of skilled intrapartum care. While cesarean section is an important emergency obstetric intervention for saving the lives of mothers and newborns, a study comparing the prevalence of cesarean delivery is not sufficiently available in Ethiopia. This study aimed at assessing the prevalence and associated factors of cesarean delivery among women who gave birth at hospitals in Dessie town, Northeast Ethiopia.MethodsA facility based cross-sectional study was conducted between July and October 2013. A total of 520 women who gave birth in four hospitals (public = 1, private = 3) were interviewed. Face-to-face interviews using a pre-tested and structured questionnaire were conducted for primary data collection. Additionally, patients' charts were reviewed to collect mothers' clinical data. Bivariate and multiple logistic regressions analyses were conducted. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were computed and a P-value of less than 0.05 was taken to declare the level of significance.ResultsA total of 512 mothers were included in the final analysis (response rate = 98.4%), the prevalence of cesarean delivery was found to be 47.6% (95% CI: 44.3, 51.1), While 46 (18.2%) of the procedure conducted in public and 198 (76.1%) were in private hospitals. Partograph monitoring [AOR = 3.84 95%CI: 2.24, 6.59], oxytocin administration [AOR = 4. 80 95%CI: 2.87-8.02], previous cesarean delivery [AOR = 2. 86 95%CI: 1.64-5.01] and place of delivery being a private hospital [AOR = 6. 79 95%CI: 4.18-11.01)] were associated with cesarean delivery.ConclusionThe prevalence of cesarean delivery was found to be high, and was significantly higher in private hospitals than a public facility. There is a need to conduct cesarean delivery audits to appropriately utilize scarce resources. Further an in-depth exploration of the experiences of women with cesarean delivery is necessary.

Project description:In Ethiopia Long-acting contraception method utilization was found low (22.7%) among female healthcare providers. However, there is no study has been conducted on the utilization long-acting contraception methods among female healthcare providers in the study area. These studies addressed important variables such as socio-demography and individual factors that might affect the use of long-acting contraceptive methods among female healthcare providers. We assessed the utilization of long-acting contraceptive methods and associated factors among healthcare providers in South Wollo Zone public hospitals, Amhara Region, Ethiopia, in 2021.An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 354 female healthcare workers in the South Wollo Zone hospitals from March to April, 2021. The participants were selected using a systematic random sampling technique. The data were collected using self-administered questionnaires entered into Epi-data version 4.1 and exported to SPSS version 25 for analysis. Bi-variable and multi-variable logistic regression analyses were performed. The adjusted odds ratio (AOR), along with a 95% confidence interval (CI), was estimated to measure the association. The significance level was set at a P- value under 0.05. The current utilization of long-acting contraceptive methods among female healthcare providers was found to be 33.6% [95%, CI 29-39)]. Discussion with a partner [AOR = 2.277,95% CI, (1.026-5.055)], method shift/switched [AOR = 4.302,95% CI, (2.285-8.102)], knowledge of the respondent [AOR = 1.887,95% CI, (1.020-3.491)], and ever birth [AOR = 15.670,95% CI, (5.065-48.49)] were significant factors toward the utilization of long-acting contraceptive methods. The current utilization of long-acting contraceptive methods was found to be low. Therefore, encouraging partner discussions through a targeted information education communication intervention strategy should be intensified to improve long-acting contraceptive methods utilization.

Project description:IntroductionTeamwork is identified as a key contributor to patient safety and good teamwork is recognized as one of the presumptions of healthy work environment in nursing. The importance of job satisfaction in nursing has repeatedly been confirmed, but only recently has the association of job satisfaction and nursing teamwork been identified.ObjectiveTo identify the level of nursing teamwork in hospitals in Iceland and its relationship with job satisfaction.MethodsThis was a quantitative descriptive cross-sectional study. Data were collected with the Nursing Teamwork Survey administered to nursing staff in medical, surgical, and intensive care units in hospitals in Iceland. This study is based on data from 567 participants.ResultsA logistic regression analysis indicated that work experience on current unit and perceived staffing adequacy contributes to job satisfaction and when controlling for unit type, role, experience on current unit and staffing adequacy, those reporting better teamwork are significantly more likely to be satisfied with their current position. With an additional unit for overall nursing teamwork, participants are almost five times likelier to be satisfied with their current position.ConclusionStudy findings show that there is a significant relationship between nursing teamwork and job satisfaction. The findings of this study confirm the importance of adequate staffing and good teamwork for nurses' job satisfaction. Staffing however, will remain the most challenging part of the equation as lack of nursing staff is foreseen globally in the coming decades turning the spotlight to teamwork. All stakeholders, including clinical nurse leaders, administrators, and instructors, need to emphasize on strengthening nursing teamwork. Good teamwork with increased job satisfaction may prevent turnover and shortage of nurses, an issue expected to grow during and following the COVID-19 pandemic. Facilitating good teamwork should be one of the priorities of every nurse leader.
