Abstract IntroductionIn Ethiopia, the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women differs geographically and ranged from 15.8–56.8%. The objective of this study is to identify the determinants of anemia among pregnant women attending antenatal care in health facilities of Bale-Robe Town, Southeast Ethiopia.MethodsA facility-based case-control study was conducted in Bale-Robe hospital and Baha-biftu health center in Bale-Robe, Southeast Ethiopia. A total of 282 pregnant women participated in the study (141 cases and 141 controls). Cases were pregnant women with altitude-adjusted hemoglobin value < 11.0 g/dl at the first and third trimesters, and < 10.5 g/dl at the second trimester. Controls were pregnant women with hemoglobin value ≥ 11.0 g/dl at first and third trimesters and ≥ 10.5 g/dl at the second trimester. A structured and pretested questionnaire was used to collect data. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was applied to assess the determinants of anemia. Determinants were categorized as sociodemographic and economic, obstetric and medical, and dietary intake and behavioral.ResultsHousewife occupation (AOR=2.1, 95% CI=1.12-3.92), prolonged menstrual bleeding (AOR=2.33, 95% CI=1.38-3.92) and undernutrition (AOR=4.03, 95% CI=1.38-11.83) were factors significantly associated with anemia in pregnant women.ConclusionHousewife occupation, prolonged menstrual bleeding, and malnutrition were the determinants of anemia in pregnant women. Hence, anemia prevention and control strategy in pregnant women should include adequate dietary intake, and strengthening nutritional counseling for pregnant women during antenatal care is also required by the health care provider.
