Background and Objective: Postnatal care is recognized as one of the most effective ways of preventing and managing physical and mental disabilities that occur during the postpartum period. Despite the importance of postnatal care, its utilization is low in Mali. The present study investigates factors associated with utilization of postnatal care services in Mali. Methods: A total of 5,778 women who had complete information on all the variables of interest were included in our study. The data were analyzed with Stata version 14.2 by employing a multilevel logistic regression approach. The results were presented using adjusted odds ratios (aOR) at 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: We found that 25.18% of childbearing women in Mali utilized postnatal care. Women with no education (aOR=1.28, 95% CI=1.02-1.62) and those with primary level of education (OR=1.38, 95% CI=1.06- 1.81) had higher odds of postnatal care uptake, compared to those with secondary/higher education. On the contrary, postnatal care service utilization was lower among women who were not covered by health insurance (aOR=0.63, 95% CI=0.46-0.88), those who were not working (aOR=0.82, 95% CI=0.70-0.96), and those who were not exposed to mass media (aOR=0.80, 95% CI=0.70-0.93). Similarly, compared to women in the Mopti region, women in all other regions were less likely to utilize postnatal care services. Postnatal care service utilization was lower among women in communities with low educational level (aOR = 0.42, 95% CI=0.27-0.66) and medium socio-economic status (aOR=0.59, 95% CI=0.36-0.99). Conclusion and Implications for Translation: The study revealed several individual, household and community level factors as predictors of utilization of postnatal care services in Mali. Public health interventions intended to improve postnatal care services uptake in Mali should pay attention to these factors. This will help achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 3.1 which focuses on reducing the global maternal mortality ratio to less than 70 per 100 000 live births by 2030.   Copyright © 2021 Ahinkorah et al.

Abstract Background Maternal mortality remained a public health issue, especially in developing countries. Although the first two days after birth was a critical time in which the highest maternal death recorded, it was the most neglected period of maternal health services. Therefore, this study aims to determine the maternal and community-level factors of postnatal check-ups in Ethiopia Methods Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) in 2016 was utilized. A total of 3,948 women aged 15-49 giving birth in the two years before the survey were included. The response variables were post-natal check-ups in the first two days after birth, dichotomized into no check-ups in the first two days and check-ups within two days after giving birth. The explanatory variables were individual maternal characteristics such as education, household wealth, perceived distance to a health facility to get medical help, employment status, antenatal care (ANC), delivery by cesarean section, birth order and place of delivery, and selected community characteristics such as community literacy, community socioeconomic status, community ANC coverage, community perception of distance to a health facility, and regional states. A multi-level mixed-effects logistic regression model was employed. Result Only 17% of the women had a postnatal check-up within 2 days of giving birth in Ethiopia. Institutional delivery AOR 2.14 [95% C.I 1.70, 2.0] and giving birth by cesarean section AOR 1.66 [95% CI 1.10, 2.50] were found to be maternal factors, whereas administrative regions(Oromia 69%, Somali 56%, Benishangul 55%, SNNPR 43%, Gambela 66%, Afar 50% and Dire Dawa 55% which less likely to utilize postnatal care utilization as compared to Addis Ababa city administrative area), Higher community-level wealth AOR 1.44 [95% C.I 1.08, 1.2], ANC coverage AOR 1.52 [95% C.I 1.19, 1.96] and perceived distance of the health facility as a big problem AOR 0.78[95% C.I 0.60, 0.99] were the community factors associated with postnatal check-ups in Ethiopia. Conclusion Both maternal factors and community factors are found to be a significant association with postnatal care services utilization, however, based on the ICC maternal factors prevail the community-level factors. Increasing access to postnatal care services to the remote areas of Ethiopia was recommended.

Background Pregnancies that occur in the first year after birth can result in adverse outcomes for the mothers and their babies. Postpartum family planning (PPFP) can save lives of many mothers and children. Only few data are available about the magnitude of PPFP use and its determinants in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Objective To assess PPFP utilization and associated factors in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Method A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from April to June 2018. A total of 625 women were enrolled in the study. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software was used to analyze the data. Binary logistic regression model with adjusted odd ratio (AOR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to identify the factors associated with PPFP use. A p-value less than 0.05 was considered as significant. Result The magnitude of PPFP utilization in Addis Ababa was 71.8%. Previous family planning (FP) information (AOR = 13.2; 95% CI: (1.96, 88.07)), FP information from health facility visit (AOR = 2.23; 95% CI: (1.45, 3.43)), antenatal care (AOR = 4.96; 95% CI: (1.58, 15.64)), counseling on FP at postnatal care (AOR = 1.97; 95% CI: (1.27, 3.05)), menses resumption after birth (AOR = 1.75; 95% CI: (1.11, 2.76)), and commencing sexual activity after birth (AOR = 9.34; 95% CI: (5.39, 16.17)) were the factors associated with PPFP use. Conclusion and recommendation Though the magnitude of PPFP use is encouraging, still three out of the ten postpartum women did not use PPFP. The determinants of PPFP use were having FP information, having FP information from health facility visit, antenatal care, counseling about FP during postnatal care, menses resumption after birth, and commencing sexual activity after birth. The health system in the City and the healthcare providers should strive to reach every woman who is not accessing the PPFP services and antenatal care services, and improve counseling services on PPFP during delivery and postnatal care services.
