Objectives: To analyze the factors associated with anemia in pregnancy in the Cascades region in Burkina Faso. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in antenatal clinics of the Cascades region in Burkina Faso during one month from May to June 2012. We collected data on socio-demographics and health characteristics of pregnant women attending these clinics. Hemoglobin was measured to assess anemia. Factors associated with anemia were identified through a multivariate analysis. Results: A total of 1763 pregnant women, irrespectively of pregnancy stage, were enrolled. The mean (SD) hemoglobin level was 10.6 (1.4) g/dl. The prevalence of anemia in pregnancy was 58.9%, 3.2% of them being severe. Factors associated with anemia were the absence of intermittent preventive treatment of malaria with sulfadoxin-pyrimetamin (OR = 1.3, 95% CI: 1.0-1.7), number of pregnancies >6 (OR = 1.4, 95% CI: 1.1-1.9). Moderate consumption of local alcohol extracted from Palmyra was associated with a lower prevalence of anemia (OR = 0.7, 95% CI: 0.5-0.9). Surprisingly, anemia was not associated with supplementation with folic acid + iron (p = 0.60). Conclusions: Interventions which aim to reduce the prevalence of anemia in pregnancy in Burkina Faso should improve the coverage of the intermittent preventive treatment of malaria and support the limitation of births.

ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Anemia in pregnancy is an important factor which is associated with a number of maternal and fetal complications. It is a major contributor to poor pregnancy and birth outcomes in developing countries. This study aims at finding the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women living in rural Warangal and to determine the socio-demographic features of pregnant women.METHODOLOGY: A community based cross-sectional study was conducted in Wardhanapet, the rural field practicing area of Kakatiya medical college, Warangal, Telangana. All pregnant women between the ages of 15 and 49 years were included in the study.The sample size was calculated by using the formula *P*Q/ = 382 pregnant women. Where Z is confidence level at 95% (standard value is 1.96); P is proportion (prevalence of anemia during pregnancy 54.4%, NFHS-5); L is precision at 95% CI = 0.05.Simple random sampling was done and the data was collected using a pre-designed, semi-structured questionnaire. Hemoglobin levels were taken from existing lab reports of the subjects. Hemoglobin cut-off for anemia during pregnancy was taken as per WHO criteria. The data collected was entered in MS-EXCEL and exported to SPSS V20 for further analysis. Chi square test was used to find out the significance and p value ≥0.05 was considered significant.RESULTS: Among 382 subjects, the prevalence of anemia was 62%. Of them, 40% (n=130) had mild, 55% (n=155) had moderate anemia and 5% (n=12) had severe anemia. Significant association was found between anemia and parity, birth spacing, intake of IFA tablets, education and type of diet. There was no association between age of the subject, age at first conception and socioeconomic status.CONCLUSION: As prevalence of anemia is 62%, efforts to identify modifiable factors of anemia the importance of prevention of anemia must be reinforced in pregnant women.

Background: Aim of the study was to find the factors leading to anemia in pregnancy. The main objective was to study the various sociodemographic factors leading to anemia and to assess the knowledge about anemia among pregnant females.Methods: The present cross sectional study was carried out at urban health centre, to determine the factors leading to anemia in pregnancy. A total of 100 pregnant females were registered. Demographic data was collected by interview method. A pretested and pre designed questionnaire was used for data collection. Hb was estimated using Sahli’s hemoglobinometer and females having haemoglobin less than 11 mg/dl were considered anaemic. Data analysis was done using SPSS software. Results: The overall mean haemoglobin (Hb) was 9.58+2.2g/dl. It was seen that diet, family size, education, social class, gravida and parity are associated with anaemia in pregnancy. Conclusions: After adjusting for all the possible covariates there seems to be significant association between Hb levels and age group, education level, family size, diet, gravida and parity.
