Abstract

Maternal mortality remains a serious public health problem, especially in developing countries. The Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is an important indicator in assessing the level of public health and the quality of maternal health services. An epidemiological approach is used to identify risk factors contributing to maternal mortality through an analysis of people, place, and time. This article aims to examine the risk factors for maternal mortality based on an epidemiological approach. The method used is a literature review of epidemiology textbooks, national health reports, and scientific journals. The results of the study indicate that risk factors for maternal mortality include biological, behavioral, socioeconomic, access to health services, and health care system factors. It is concluded that preventing maternal mortality requires a comprehensive and cross-sectoral approach.

Abstract

Background: Pregnancy danger signs are important indicators of complications that require early recognition and prompt medical attention. Adequate knowledge of these signs can encourage pregnant women to seek appropriate health services. Video-based education provides visual and auditory information that may facilitate understanding and retention of health information. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of video-based education on pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy danger signs. Methods: This study used a quantitative pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of 64 pregnant women selected using purposive sampling. Respondents completed a knowledge questionnaire before and after receiving video-based education about pregnancy danger signs. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Before the intervention, 24 respondents (37.5%) had good knowledge, 28 (43.8%) had moderate knowledge, and 12 (18.7%) had poor knowledge. After the intervention, 51 respondents (79.7%) had good knowledge, 12 (18.8%) had moderate knowledge, and 1 (1.5%) had poor knowledge. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in knowledge before and after the intervention (p<0.001). Conclusion: Video-based education significantly improved pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy danger signs. Video can be used as a complementary educational medium in antenatal care services.
