Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish influence of access determinants on self-referrals among pregnant women seeking delivery service in Coast General Referral and Teaching Hospital (CGTRH). Methodology: The study adopted a descriptive cross-sectional research. The study target population was all pregnant women seeking delivery services in coast general teaching and referral hospital at the maternity unit. Therefore, 6,420 formed the study population as it is from this sampling frame that a sample of mothers was obtained. A sample of 376 pregnant women was obtained. Systematic random sampling was used to select the pregnant women to be included in the sample. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire. The data collected were cleaned and coded, quantified and analyzed quantitatively. Quantitative data were analyzed using IBM SPSS where descriptive and inferential statistics were used to capture the data in order to understand the pattern and nature of relationships. Univariate analysis was done using descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages,) in order to summarize the data, and the results were presented using charts, graph and tables. Results: The findings revealed a significant relationship between the operating hours of CGTRH and self-referrals to the facility. The results indicated that pregnant women who indicated the 24 hours operating nature of CGTRH as their reason for seeking services at the facility were 2 times more likely to make self-referrals compared to those who disagreed that they sought services at the facility because the facility is open 24 hours in a day. A multivariable logistic regression analysis at a significance level of 0.05 further indicated that the operating hours of CGTRH had a significant influence on self-referrals pregnant women seeking delivery services at the facility. Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommended that The Mombasa county department of health should find ways of ensuring that primary health facilities in the county are open for 24 hours in a day to attract more pregnant women seeking delivery services at the facilities and thus minimize the number of pregnant women seeking delivery services directly from the Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital.

Abstract Background During pregnancy, reducing exposure to chemicals is obvious to many pregnant women (PW), and also perinatal health professionals (PHP), but few of them are aware that these substances are present in everyday products (cleaning products, DIY products, gardening products, personal health care products, cosmetics, food plastic wrappers etc.). AIM This study aimed to estimate the perception of risks related to chemicals by PW, and also to describe the advice provided by PHP to PW. Methods A cross-sectional survey was performed among French PW. Interviewers, using a standardized questionnaire, collected data anonymously. Data focused on socio-demographic and occupational characteristics, perception of environmental risks, identification of chemicals by PW, and preventive advices performed by PHP. Statistical analysis (univariate analysis - logistic regression) were done with Modalisa® 8.0 software (Kynos, Paris). Results 300 PW (29.5 +/- 5 years old) were included. They report a relatively high level of sensitivity to environmental issues (SE Score = 6.3 ± 1.7, on a Likert 0-10 scale). When asked about the level of risk associated with 15 environmental risks, pregnant women placed exposure to chemicals in only twelfth position. Two thirds of PW were interested by the composition of everyday products, and looked at the ingredients mentioned on the labels, but most of them declared that the information present on the labels were not comprehensible. An interest for organic products was noted. These behaviors were related to the age, socio-occupational status, perception of environmental risks. For most of PW, the main sources of information on chemicals were the Internet and medias. Only 5% PW identified PHP as potential interlocutors on this topic. Conclusions For most PW, everyday products were not identified as health risk products. To date, it is important to strengthen the information provided to PW by PHP on the risks linked o chemicals during pregnancy. Key messages Exposures to chemicals present in everyday products (DIY, cleaning products, cosmetics, food plastic wrappers etc.) are not well identified by pregnant women and by perinatal health professionals. Exposure to chemicals must be reduced during pregnancy and health promotion messages must integrate this advice to promote healthy behaviors.

Abstract Background: Psychological distress (PD) among pregnant women has a bearing both on the mother and the outcome of the pregnancy and is thus a public health problem. It is a precursor for other severe mental health conditions that include anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and so if screened and diagnosed early it can prevent progress to severe mental illness. PD has however not been screened among pregnant women and thus no available data in Uganda. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and factors associated with PD among pregnant women at Kawempe hospital Uganda.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 530 pregnant women attending antenatal care at Kawempe hospital Uganda. The SRQ-20 tool was used to screen for PD and data on socio-demographic and clinical factors was collected using a. socio-demographic questionnaire and medical records respectively. Descriptive statistics were applied to determine the prevalence of PD and multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to assess for factors associated with PD among pregnant women.Results: The prevalence of PD was 19.1% , while having a fair/bad relationship with the spouse (P-value =0.007), a low monthly income (p-value = 0.013), and having less than two meals a day (P-value =0.022). were independently associated with PDConclusion: Approximately one in five pregnant women receiving ANC at Kawempe hospital has PD. This study therefore supports the need for integration of mental health assessment into the antenatal care package of women at Kawempe hospital and Uganda at large
