Pages

  1694-1702

Abstract

 Background: This cross-sectional was aimed to assess the prevalence of PRE-PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES USAGE and its DETERMINANT factors among women of reproductive age in Kedah, Malaysia. Methods: Overall, 1347 respondents who attended 24 government health clinics, were chosen using systematic multistage random sampling. A validated self-administered questionnaire which consisted of sections including socio-demographic characteristics, social support, knowledge on pre-pregnancy care, perception on risk of preg-nancy, health status, as well as intention and awareness on PRE-PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES were distributed. Results: The prevalence of utilization of PRE-PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES was still low i. e. 44. 0%. Bivariate and mul-tivariate analysis showed consistent significant level between all factors and pre-pregnancy care USAGE except for family planning practice. The factors that showed significant difference with the USAGE of PRE-PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES were age of more than 35 (P<0. 001), high education level (P<0. 001), non-working mothers (P<0. 001), multipara (P=0. 001), awareness on the existence of PRE-PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES in government health facilities (P<0. 001), intention to use the services (P=0. 0030), having medical illness (P=0. 005), having social support (P=0. 001), high knowledge (P<0. 001), and positive perception (P<0. 001). Conclusion: Low USAGE of PRE-PREGNANCY CARE SERVICES can be improved through health screening on reproductive-aged women with positive DETERMINANT factors at the triage level in integrated clinics. Information and knowledge on pre-pregnancy services should be disseminated among community members through various means including roadshows and pre-wedding workshops.
