It is estimated that 60% ofmaternal deaths in Indonesia occur after postpartum, and nearly 50% ofdeaths during childbirth occur within the first 24 hours after delivery.Some causes of maternal death, such as postpartum complications andpostpartum bleeding, can be prevented through the puerperal careprogram. The study aims to determine the factors associated with apostpartum examination in South Sulawesi Province. This study usescross-sectional study design in 393 couple’s age 15-49 years by usingdata from IDHS 2017. The hypothesis was tested with a chi-square test(p&lt;0.05). The results obtained by variables related to the utilization ofchildbirth services in South Sulawesi are education (p=0.000), birth order(p=0.026), place of childbirth (p=0.000), wealth quintiles (p=0.000),distance to health facilities (p=0.020), and complication during delivery(p=0.000). Variables not related to postpartum service use are age(p=0.507), occupation (p=0.232), and ANC visit (p=0.077). A compre-hensive effort is needed by involving various media and elements ofsociety to encourage mothers to use health care, especially after post-partum.

Abstract

The Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Indonesia has estimated 305 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2015. A large effort needed to reach SDG’s target of 70 maternal deaths in 2030, by increasing Skilled Birth Attendant (SBA) use. An increase in autonomy and women's empowerment were expected to be able to increase the role of women in decisions related to their health. This study examined the relationship of women’s empowerment with SBA use in Indonesia using the 2017 DHS. The number of samples in this study was 14,835 women aged 15-49 who had one or more children born, and were married or living together with their partners. Women’s empowerment indicators used in this study were educations, participation in decision-making, negotiating safer sex, and attitude towards wife-beating. Data analysis was performed using binary logistic regression analysis. Overall, women’s empowerment indicators except for participation in decision making significantly influenced SBA use even after controlled by sociodemographic characteristics. The results of this study indicated that the increased SBA use during childbirth can be done by increasing women's empowerment, including through education and delaying the age of marriage. Well-targeted policies can be carried out by identifying factors that increase SBA use.

Abstract

A good Civil Registration and Biological Statistics system are the basis for planning, monitoring, and evaluating development programs. Decision-makers and policies are highly dependent on timely, complete statistical data and reliable methods. Therefore it is necessary to do a Rapid Assessment which aims to conduct a quick evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the current birth, death, and cause of death registration system. The method is qualitative research with discussion methods and information confirmation. The rapid assessment questionnaire is from WHO. It contains 25 questions. The research location was chosen purposively, namely Padang Pariaman Regency, Makassar City, Kudus Regency. The research took place in August 2019. The total rapid assessment scores of Padang Pariaman Regency, Makassar City, and Kudus Regency were 42.67%, 49.33%, 57.33% respectively. The total scores in the 3 study areas are in the same range of values, 34-64%. This range of values ​​indicates that many aspects of the system are not functioning properly, and many problems require attention. Three research areas have different shortcomings. We need different strategies that depend on their characteristics and require cross-sector collaboration.

The Integrated Biological and Behavioral Survey of Indonesia showed a low number of FSW return visits to STI services in the last 3 months. The study aimed to determine the factors of the early visits of FSW to the STI clinic. This research was a cross-sectional of 102 FSW samples taken consecutively. Data analysis using the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression. The results were obtained that: of the total sample, the majority (69.6%) were direct FSW, secondary education (56.9%), and had no health insurance (72.5%). Only 23.5% of FSWs returned screening in 3 months. Multivariate analysis results showed direct FSW (aOR=9.11;CI95%=1,835-45,283), who rarely/never use condoms with customers (aOR=4.69;CI95%=1,631-13,535) and who had no insurance (aOR=3.18;CI95%=1,017-9,940) returned to STI clinic more earlier (≤3 months) than other groups. The low return of FSW and its determinants need attention. Outreach strategies by field staff based on the type of FSW and the adjusted outreach materials are needed to increase the return of FSW to STI services.
