摘要

背景:正确的避孕知识、态度和做法可以预防意外受孕不良后果的发生。目的:探讨紧急避孕知识、态度和行为的影响因素及水平。方法:采用基于机构的横断面研究设计,对2013年亚的斯亚贝巴埃塞俄比亚移民和国籍事务办公室的416名女性客户进行调查。研究对象采用系统随机抽样方法选择。采用面对面访谈者管理的结构化问卷收集有关其社会人口和生殖健康问题的数据。进行二元和多元logistic回归,以比值比的95% CI和P值<0.05为基础,认为具有统计学意义。结果:仅40.1%的受试者听说过紧急避孕药,其中47.3%的受试者对紧急避孕药有一定的了解。39.4%的受访者对紧急避孕持积极态度。只有9.3%的性活跃参与者使用过紧急避孕药。缺乏关于避孕方法的知识是不使用紧急避孕药的主要障碍。年龄20岁及以上[AOR=7.20, 95%CI= 1.26, 41.08]、婚姻状况[AOR=12.49, 95%CI=1.81, 86.47]和曾经使用过紧急避孕措施[AOR=5.26, 95%CI=1.05, 26.54]是紧急避孕知识使用的显著预测因子,而是否有足够的紧急避孕知识[AOR=5.08,95%CI=1.19,21.56]和曾经使用过避孕措施[AOR=13.7, 95%CI= 2.66, 70.59]是紧急避孕措施使用的显著预测因子。结论:妇女对紧急避孕的认识、态度和实践水平较低,紧急避孕预防意外妊娠及其并发症的潜力远未发挥出来。因此,需要在提供必要用品的同时提高认识,以提高前往不同国家的女性青少年对紧急避孕的知识和做法。

Methods: An institution based cross sectional study design was conducted among 416 female clients of Ethiopian immigration and nationality affair office in Addis Ababa in 2013. Study participants were selected by systematic random sampling technique. Face to face interviewer administered structured questionnaire was employed to collect data on their socio-demographic and reproductive health issues. Both binary and multiple logistic regressions were done and statistical significance was considered based on 95% CI of odds ratios and P- Value <0.05. Result: Only 40.1% of the participants had ever heard about emergency contraceptive of whom 47.3% were found to be knowledgeable rated based on multiple knowledge questions. Around 39.4% had positive attitude towards emergency contraceptive. Only 9.3% of the sexually active participants have ever used emergency contraceptive. Lack of knowledge about the method was major barrier for not using emergency contraceptive. Age 20 and above years [AOR=7.20, 95% CI=1.26, 41.08], being married [AOR=12.49, 95%CI=1.81, 86.47] and ever used emergency contraceptive [AOR=5.26, 95%CI=1.05, 26.54] were significant predictors to knowledge of emergency contraceptive while having adequate knowledge about emergency contraceptive [AOR=5.08,95%CI=1.19,21.56] and ever used contraceptive [AOR=13.7, 95% CI=2.66, 70.59] were significant predictor for use of emergency contraceptive. Conclusion: The level of knowledge, attitude and practice towards emergency contraceptive is very low depicting potential of emergency contraceptive to prevent unintended pregnancies and their complications is far from being realized. Hence, awareness creations accompanied by availing necessary supplies are needed to raise knowledge and practice of emergency contraceptive among female adolescents departing to different nations.
