Abstract

Background: Blood transfusion is a mandatory therapeutic maneuver that provides life-saving benefits to patients who are suffering from severe anemia due to medical disorders. Purpose: this study was aimed to determine HBV infection and associated factors among blood donars in Jigjiga zone Somali region. Methods: A facility-based cross-sectional study design was conducted among a sample blood donor in Jigjiga city Blood Bank Somali regional state of Ethiopia. A standardized questionnaire using Epidata was used. A bivariate and multivariate logistic regression was used to assess the independent predictors association (pvalue<0.25) in bivariate as candidate of multivariable logistic regression model-A significant (pvalue<0.05) was considered as statistical significance. Results: A total of 323 blood donars participated with a response rate of 95.5%. The overall prevalence of hepatitis B virus infection was (7.1%) (95% CI: 4.3-10.2)After adjusted analysis, marital status being single (AOR=5.3 CI: 1.018-27.859), unsafe therapeutic drug injections (AOR=10.1 CI: 2.791-36.566) unprotected sex (AOR4.6=CI: 1.533-14.116), razor and sharp material sharing (AOR=5.5 CI: 0.852-16.530), having poor knowledge on hepatitis B virus infection (AOR=3.4 CI: 1.107-10.485) were identified as statistically significant associated with hepatitis virus infection. Conclusion: Overall prevalence of the study was 7.1%, which needs intervention by the government and other stakeholders.

Abstract

Background: Caesarean delivery is a procedure used to save a mother’s and foetus’s lives when the labour situation becomes complicated. However, a wrong decision can substantially increase the rates of morbidity and mortality of the woman and the fetus. Purpose: the study aimed to assess the prevalence of cesarean delivery and associated factors. Methods: A health facility-based cross-sectional study has been conducted. A systematic random sampling technique was used. A face-to-face interview was employed to collect data through a pre-tested and structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were counted on. A binary logistic regression was employed to assess factors associated with cesarean delivery. The odds ratio and corresponding 95% confidence interval 95% confidence intervals were used. Results: The prevalence of cesarean delivery in this study is 27.4% (95% CI 23.3, 31.8%). monthly income 3,000-6,000 birr [AOR = 3.91 (95% CI: 1.50, 10.17)], previous cesarean delivery [AOR = 15.86 (95% CI: 8.01, 31.40)] and mother not directed counselling [AOR = 2.87 (95% CI: 1.46, 5.68)] are factors significantly associated. The prevalence of cesarean delivery uses is high. Conclusion: The obstetric factors occurring around delivery are the master ground leading cesarean delivery rather than the background characteristics. There is a low rate of pregnant mother counselling. We recommend interventions for the prevention of unnecessary primary cesarean delivery, counselling for pregnant mothers, particular emphasis on training all health care providers, and further investigation.
