About 389 employees were interviewed.Multi variable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the relationship among predictors and outcome variable. P-value <0.25 will be used as cutoff point for variable to be candidate for multi variable logistic regression. P-value <0.05 and Adjusted odds ratio at 95% level of significance will be used to declare predictors of employees satisfaction.Results: A total of 389 study participant responded to the questionnaires with response rate of 92.20%. More than half 212(54.5%) were male and the mean age of study participants were 32.24 years (SD± 7.87). The overall level of job satisfaction was 185(47.6%) (95%CI: 1.43, 1.53). Factors like shisha smoking (AOR, 0.4; 95% CI: 0.01, 0.44), Co-workers relationship (AOR, 2.85; 95% CI: 1.21, 6.72), working environment (AOR, 4.08; 95% CI: 1.98, 8.41), autonomy at their working (AOR, 4.40; 95% CI: 1.89, 11.19), commitment for their organization (AOR, 2.48; 95% CI: 1.20, 5.10), performance evaluation (AOR, 5.69; 95% CI: 2.53, 12.80), promotion or growth opportunity (AOR, 9.58; 95% CI: 4.11, 22.32) and relationship with immediate supervisor (AOR,4.59; 95% CI: 1.89, 11.19) shows significant association with employees` job satisfaction.Conclusion and recommendation: The overall level of employees` satisfaction is low.

Background. Job satisfaction is an important determinant of health staff’s motivation, retention, and performance. Difficulties in critical decision-making and problems with lack of respect and recognition lead to lower job satisfaction level among anesthetists. It leads to high turnover intention, dropout from the profession, burnout, impaired health status of anesthetists, and lower work performance. Objective. The aim of this multicenter cross-sectional study was to assess the level of job satisfaction and associated factors among anesthetists working in Amhara National Regional State. Methods. A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted from April 1 to June 30, 2017. Ninety-eight anesthetists that were working in Amhara National Regional State Hospitals were involved in this study. The structured questionnaire was scored on five-point Likert scales. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 20. Binary logistic regression was used to measure statistical significance between dependent and each independent variable. Variables with P value of ≤0.2 on crude analysis were taken into multivariate analysis, and P value 0.05 and 95% CI was used as cut off point. Result. 98 out of 104 participants were involved in this study with a response rate of 94.3%. The overall level of job satisfaction was 46.9%. Anesthetists in academic working position were satisfied with the odds of about 2.3 (AOR = 2.269; CI = 1.137–6.740) compared to those in clinical working position. Anesthetists were least satisfied with coworker relationships (37.8%), work schedule (43.9%), professional opportunity (46.9%), and recognition (49%) while they were most satisfied from their control of responsibility (59.2%), social interaction (55%), and salary and benefits (51%). Conclusion and Recommendation. Job satisfaction of anesthetists was low, and we suggest that facilitation of professional development, creation of smooth relationship in working environment, increasing the number of anesthetists, and recognition of the anesthesia professional are of paramount importance to increase job satisfaction of anesthetists.

Unmet Need For Contraception

Abstract Background Pregnancies complicated by cardiovascular disease carry a high risk of morbidity and mortality. Contraception offers a unique opportunity to avoid unintended pregnancy and/or optimize preconception cardiac health status. Such planning will also allow possible modification of medical therapy that can be detrimental to the growing fetus. However, unmet need for contraception can become a barrier to achieving these goals. This research was aimed to determine the rate of unmet need for contraceptives and associated factors among women with cardiovascular disease. Methods A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from February 1 – May 31/2020. A convenient sampling technique was used to enroll 284 reproductive age women with cardiovascular disease having follow-up at Saint Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College. Data was collected through an exit interview using a structured and pretested questionnaire. Descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate methods were used to analyze the level of unmet need and its associated factors. Results The overall unmet need for contraception was 36%. The majority of the respondents lack counseling on contraception use. The most common reasons for non-use of a contraceptive method was fear of drug side effects and drug interaction. Unmet need for contraception was found to be more likely among those who have not been counseled on contraceptive utilization (AOR 6.7, CI 1.8–24.7) and those who lack partner support on contraception use (AOR = 6.2, CI: 1.91–19.8). Unmet need was also found to be more likely among women who have never used contraception before (AOR = 3.2, CI 1.12–8.92). Conclusion Unmet need for contraception was high in this high-risk population group. Tailored counseling can alleviate fear and concerns about contraceptive use. Appropriate strategies that enhance male partner involvement should also be implemented.

Abstract Background Globally, Millions of people cannot use health services because of the fear of payment for the service at the time of service delivery. From the agenda of transformation and the current situation of urbanization as well as to ensure universal health coverage implementing this program to the urban resident is mandatory. The aim of this study is to assess the willingness of community-based health insurance (CBHI) uptake and associated factors among urban residents of Oromia regional state, Oromia, Ethiopia, 2018. Methods A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted. From the total of eighteen towns; six towns which account for 33% of the total were selected randomly for the study. One population proportion formula was employed to get a total of 845 households. A pre-tested, semi-structured interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect the required data. Double-Bounded Dichotomous Choice Variant of the contingent valuation method was used to assess the maximum willingness to pay for the scheme, and a multiple logistic regression model was used to determine the effect of various factors on the willingness to join and willingness to pay for the households. Result About 839 (99.3%) of the respondents participated. The mean ages of the respondents were 40.44(SD ± 11.12) years. 621 (74.1%) ever heard about CBHI with 473 (56.3%) knowing the benefits package. Out of 839, 724 (86.3%) were willing to uptake CBHI of which 704 (83.9%) were willing to pay if CBHI established in their town. Conclusion If CBHI established about 86.3% of the households would enroll in the scheme. Having education, with a family size between 3 & 6, having difficulty in paying for health care and less than 20mins it took to reach the nearest health facility were the independent predictors of the willingness of CBHI uptake. The Oromia and Towns Health Bureau should consider the availability of health facilities near to the community and establishing CBHI in the urban towns.
