Abstract Introduction: Induction of labour is one component of comprehensive obstetrics care services that is increasing employed in modern day obstetrics to decrease the risk of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. However, it has been strongly associated with poor maternal and perinatal outcomes. Therefore, his study was aimed to assess the magnitude of failed induction of labour and associated factors among mothers delivered at Jigjiga University Sheik Hassan Yabare referral Hospital, Eastern Ethiopia from June 1 to June 30, 2021.Methods: An institutional based cross-sectional study was carried out among 364 women’s delivered at Jigjiga University Sheik Hassan Yabare Referral Hospital from 2018 to 2021. A checklist was used to collect the data from the women’s chart. To isolate independent predictors related to failed induction of labour, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed.Result: Our study participants were 364 women’s. The magnitude of failed induction of labour was 36.8% (95% CI: 31.8, 42.0). Age of the mother (<30 years) (AOR= 3.2; CI: 1.78, 5.75), rural residency (AOR=2.28; CI:1.29, 4.01), being primi-para (AOR= 2.76; CI: 1.55, 4.91), gestational age less than 37 or greater than 42 year (AOR= 2.65; CI: 1.44, 4.89) , multiple ton of pregnancy (AOR= 2.36; CI: 1.01, 5.55), premature rapture of membrane (AOR= 4.88; CI: 2.33, 10.21), pregnancy induced hypertension (AOR= 5.11; CI: 2.67, 9.79), and bishop score less than six (AOR= 1.95; CI: 1.15, 3.32) were significantly associated with failed induction of labour.Conclusion: The magnitude of failed induction of labour among mothers undergoing labor induction was relatively high in the study settings compared with previous studies in the country. Failed induction of labour was significantly associated with age of the mother (<30 years), rural residency, being primi-para, gestational age less than 37 or greater than 42 years, multiple ton of pregnancy, premature rapture of membrane, pregnancy induced hypertension, and bishop score less than six.

Abstract Background: Neonatal near miss is a neonate who nearly died but survived from a severe complication occurred during pregnancy, birth or within 0-28 days of extra-uterine life. However, there is no available data that quantifies the magnitude of neonatal near miss in Ethiopia where there is high prevalence of neonatal mortality. Therefore, this study is designed to provide information about the magnitude and associated factors of neonatal near miss among women who give a live birth at Hawassa City Governmental hospitals, 2019. Methods: A facility based cross-sectional study design was conducted on 604 mothers who gave live neonates at Adare General Hospital and Hawassa University Comprehensive and Specialized Hospital from May 9, 2019 to June 7, 2019. Face to face interviewer administered structured questionnaire with a supplementation of maternal and neonatal medical records with checklists were used to collect the data. Data were coded and entered in to Epi data version 3.1 and then exported to the Statistical Package for Social Science IBM version 25 for analysis. Descriptive statistics was run and the data were presented using frequency tables and figure. The bi-variable and multivariable logistic regression was used to identify the possible factors of neonatal near miss. Finally, Adjusted Odds Ratio and 95% Confidence Intervals were used to declare statsticall significance. Result Among all 604 selected live births an overall proportion of Neonatal Near Misses (NNM) cases, 202 (33.4 %;) (95% CI: 29.7%-37.1%) was obtained. Respiratory distress 158 (94%) and infection or sepsis 138 (84%) were found to be the leading causes of NNM cases in our study. Employed (AOR = 3.05, 95% CI: 1.46- 6.44), Pregnancy induced Hypertension (AOR = 0.43, 95%CI: 0.27-0.69) and Cesarean Section (AOR=0.49; 95%CI: 0.33-0.71) were significantly associated with neonatal near miss. Conclusion: This study revealed relatively high prevalence of neonatal near miss in the study areas. Employed women, pregnancy induced hypertension and cesarean section mode of delivery were found to be independent factors affecting the prevalence of NNM cases. Therefore, HUCSH and Adare general Hospitals should focus on proving quality antenatal care and prevention of occupational related problems among pregnant women.

Abstract Background Neonatal near miss is a neonate who nearly died but survived from a severe complication occurred during pregnancy, birth or within 0–28 days of extra-uterine life. However, there is no available data that quantifies the magnitude of neonatal near miss (NNM) in Ethiopia where there is high prevalence of neonatal mortality. Therefore, this study is designed to provide information about the magnitude and associated factors of neonatal near miss among women who give a live birth at Hawassa City Governmental hospitals, 2019. Methods A facility based cross-sectional study design was conducted on 604 mothers who gave live neonates at Adare General Hospital and Hawassa University Comprehensive and Specialized Hospital from May 9, 2019 to June 7, 2019.

Respiratory distress 158 (94%) and infection or sepsis 138 (84%) were found to be the leading causes of NNM cases in our study. Governmental and non-governmental employed mother (AOR = 3.05, 95% CI: 1.46–6.44) and Cesarean Section delivery (AOR = 1.89, (95% CI: 1.25–2.83)) were positively significantly associated with neonatal near miss. Whereas, pregnancy induced Hypertension (AOR = 0.43, 95%CI: 0.27–0.69) was negatively associated with neonatal near miss. Conclusion This study revealed relatively high prevalence of NNM in the study areas. Employed women, pregnancy induced hypertension and cesarean section mode of delivery were found to be independent factors affecting the prevalence of NNM cases. Therefore, HUCSH and Adare general Hospitals should focus on proving quality antenatal care and prevention of occupational related problems among pregnant women.

To explore the effect of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) on neonatal birth weight and provide the necessary reference value for the maternal and children health service. A cross-sectional study was carried out in Shaanxi Province of China in 2013. And a total of 28 045 singleton live infants and their mothers were recruited using a stratified, multistage, probability-proportional-to-size sampling method. Among the 28 045 women of childbearing age surveyed, multiple linear regression and quantile regression analysis all showed that the birth weight of newborns whose mothers had suffered from PIH during pregnancy was significantly lower than those whose mothers had not suffered from PIH during pregnancy from very low to higher birth weight percentiles (q=0–0.85), an average decrease of 137.45 g (β=−137.45, t=−5.77 and p<0.001). When birth weight was at q=0.90–1.00 percentiles, there was no birth weight difference between two groups. The present cross-sectional study indicated that PIH had an effect of on neonatal birth weight. When pregnant women with PIH are identified then the healthcare professional initiates a closer supervision of their pregnancy in order to ameliorate the status of BP and provide a good intrauterine environment for the fetus. In addition, the gynecologists should admonish the pregnant women that their health is related to the health of their fetus, then gravidas may be more engaged to alert their physician and accept early or preventative interventions. And the healthcare professional should ask and be alert to the issues of hypertension during pregnancy.
