Abstract

Knowledge of the danger signs during the third trimester of pregnancy is essential for pregnant women to reduce maternal mortality. Insufficient knowledge among pregnant women is often associated with irregular attendance at Antenatal Care (ANC) visits. Antenatal Care (ANC) is a comprehensive and regular healthcare service provided to pregnant women to optimize maternal health and to monitor, prevent, and manage potential complications throughout pregnancy until delivery. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge of third-trimester pregnant women regarding the danger signs of pregnancy and their compliance with ANC visits in Pulau Gala Village, Kukupang Community Health Center, South Halmahera. This study employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all pregnant women residing in Pulau Gala Village, within the working area of the Kukupang Community Health Center, South Halmahera. A total of 25 respondents were selected as the study sample. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed a statistically significant relationship between the level of knowledge of third-trimester pregnant women regarding the danger signs of pregnancy and compliance with ANC visits, with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). It can be concluded that regular antenatal examinations at independent midwifery practices, community health centers, hospitals, and other healthcare facilities are essential to improve pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and to enhance their compliance with Antenatal Care (ANC) visits.
