Background: Antenatal care coverage is very low in low-and middle-income countries, including Ethiopia. Self-reported pregnant women’s satisfaction may be important in identifying the demographic, provider-, and facility-related factors that can be improved to increase antenatal care satisfaction. However, there is a paucity of data on pregnant women’s satisfaction in Ethiopia, particularly in the study setting. Therefore, this study aimed to assess antenatal care service satisfaction and associated factors among pregnant women at public health facilities in the Harari region of eastern Ethiopia. Methods: A health institution–based cross-sectional study was conducted among women who were attending antenatal care clinics in February 2017. All 531 pregnant women were selected using a systematic random sampling method. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire, entered into EpiData version 3.1, and analyzed using SPSS version 22.0 software. A logistic regression model was applied to control for confounders. The level of significance was determined at a p-value of less than 0.05. Results: The magnitude of pregnant women’s satisfaction with antenatal care services was 70.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) = 66.4%–74.3%). Receiving antenatal care services from the hospital (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.44, 95% CI = 1.50–3.98), did not attend formal education (AOR = 2.53, 95% CI = 1.52–4.20) and attended primary education (AOR = 2.17, 95% CI = 1.17–4.04), having a repeated visit to antenatal care (AOR = 4.62, 95% CI = 2.98–7.17), initiating antenatal care services within the first trimester (AOR = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.12–2.71), having no history of stillbirth (AOR = 2.52, 95% CI = 1.37–4.65), and waiting for no more than 30 min in the health facility to get service (AOR = 2.31, 95% CI = 1.28–4.16) were factors associated with pregnant women’s satisfaction with antenatal care services. Conclusion: More than two-thirds of pregnant women were satisfied with the antenatal care service. The type of health facility, education status, number and initiation time of antenatal visit, history of stillbirth, and waiting time to get service were factors associated with pregnant women’s satisfaction with antenatal care services.

Antenatal Care (ANC) is a planned program in the form of observation, education and medical treatment for pregnant women to obtain a safe and satisfying process of pregnancy and childbirth. ANC visits should be done at least 4 times during pregnancy, namely K1 to K4, with a time distribution of at least 1 time in the first trimester (0-12 weeks of gestation), at least 1 time in the second trimester (12-24 weeks of gestation), and at least 2 times in the third trimester (24 weeks gestation - birth). This type of research is an analytic study with a cross sectional design. The population in this study were all 124 pregnant women in the final third semester of Sangkunur Health Center using simple random sampling of 95 people. Data obtained from the Sangkunur Health Center and through the results of interviews using a questionnaire. The data analysis method was analyzed by univariate, bivariate using the Chi-square test. Based on the results of statistical tests with the Chi-square test, it is known that there is a relationship between knowledge and K4 coverage in pregnant women (0.006 <0.05). It is recommended to Sangkunur Health Center to regularly provide outreach to pregnant women about the importance of conducting antenatal care visits in order to get antenatal care services so that pregnant women can visit health service places.

BACKGROUNDAntenatal depression is the most common psychiatric disorder during pregnancy with serious consequences for the mother and the fetus. However, there are few studies about this health issue in developing countries. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of antenatal depression and its associated risk factors among pregnant mothers attending antenatal care service at Jinka public health facilities, south Omo zone, Southern Ethiopia.METHODSInstitutional-based cross-sectional study design was conducted on 446 pregnant women at Jinka public health facilities, from June 1 to June 30, 2018. Beck Depression Inventory was used to assess women's level of depression. Statistical package for social science version 20.0 was used for analysis. Logistic regression was used to find out the association between explanatory and depression. The strength of association was evaluated using odds ratio at 95% confidence interval (CI).RESULTThe magnitude of antenatal depression in this study was 24.4% (20.2–28.5 at 95% CI) and it had statistically significant association with unmarried marital status a djusted o dds r atio (AOR) = 13.39 [(95% CI); (3.11–57.7)], chronic medical illness AOR = 3.97 [(95% CI); (1.07–14.7)], unplanned pregnancy AOR = 6.76 [(95% CI); (2.13–21.4)], history of abortion AOR = 2.8 [(95% CI); (1.14–7.02)], history of previous pregnancy complication AOR = 4.8 [(95% CI); (2.12–17.35)], and fear of pregnancy-related complications AOR = 5.4 [(95% CI); (2.32–12.4)].CONCLUSIONSNearly one pregnant woman develops antenatal depression in every four pregnant women. Variables like unmarried marital status, chronic medical illness and unplanned pregnancy, history of previous pregnancy complications, and fear of pregnancy-related complications were associated with antenatal depression. Therefore, it is recommended that these risks factors should be evaluated during antenatal care with a view to improving maternal health.

Hypertension is one of the number one causes of death and disability in the world. Hypertension contributes nearly 9.4 million deaths from cardiovascular disease each year. Hypertension can cause undesirable effects, it needs good handling, one of them is by doing a hypertension diet. To carry out a hypertension diet requires knowledge, lack of knowledge can increase risk factors for hypertension. This study aims to determine the relationship of the level of knowledge about hypertension diet to the incidence of hypertension in the elderly at the Baloi Permai Public Health Center Batam City. This research method is an analytic observational with a cross-sectional approach conducted at the Baloi Permai Public Health Center Batam City 2018. Sampling technique is a total sampling with a sample of 64 people in 2018 determined by inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results of the study were analyzed with frequency distribution and then tested with the Chi-square test. Based on the results of this study indicate that of the 64 respondents found elderly who have a good level of knowledge are 41 people (64.1%), 48 people (75.0%) have an age range between 60-70 years. 27 people (42.2%) elderly have the last high school education and 40 people (62.5%) have jobs as entrepreneurs. Elderly people who have normal blood pressure are 40 people (62.5%), and those affected by hypertension are 24 people (37.5%). The elderly who have a family history of hypertension is 21 people (32.8%) and those who do not have a history of hypertension are 43 people (67.2%). Chi-Square Test analysis results show the significance value p = 0.009. This number is significant because the p-value is smaller than the significance level (α) ≤ 5% (0.05), so H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. Therefore it can be concluded that there is a significant relationship about the level of knowledge about the hypertension diet to the incidence of hypertension in the elderly. From the results of this study it was concluded that there was a relationship between the level of knowledge about the hypertension diet and the incidence of hypertension in the elderly at the Baloi Permai Public Health Center Batam City in 2016.
