摘要

虽然已经实施了若干战略，但次优生育空间仍然是埃塞俄比亚一个严重的公共卫生问题。在研究地区，关于患有严重急性营养不良儿童的母亲的次优生育间隔的信息有限。因此，本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚东部奥达-布尔图姆沃雷达治疗性喂养中心患有严重急性营养不良的儿童的母亲的次优生育间隔的程度及其相关因素。方法对2020年10月5日至12月4日在埃塞俄比亚东部Oda bultumworda的治疗性喂养中心就诊的404名患有严重急性营养不良的儿童的母亲进行基于机构的横断面研究。采用预先测试的结构化访谈者管理问卷。将收集到的数据输入EpiData 3.1版本，然后导出到SPSS 25版本进行分析。采用二元logistic回归检验次优生育间隔与自变量之间的关系。A p值<；采用0.05表示差异有统计学意义。结果213名研究参与者中超过一半（52.7%）的生育间隔不理想（33个月）。农村居民(AOR: 1.87；95% CI: 1.11 - 3.15)，较年轻的结婚年龄(AOR: 2.92；95%ci: 1.67—5.10),(aor: 1.78；95%CI: 1.07-2.95)，不知道最佳生育间隔的持续时间(AOR: 4.12；95%CI: 1.89-9.00)，较短的母乳喂养时间（AOR: 3.36, 95%CI: 2.09-5.39），以及没有接受过正规教育(AOR: 1.78；95%CI: 1.07-2.95)与次优生育间隔显著相关。结论在本研究中，略多于一半的严重急性营养不良儿童的母亲生育间隔不理想。农村居住、缺乏教育、较年轻的结婚年龄、缺乏对理想生育间隔的认识和较短的母乳喂养时间是增加次优生育间隔几率的因素。为优化研究地区的生育间隔，提出了涉及年轻妇女和农村社区的策略。

Sub-optimal birth spacing and associated factors among mothers of children admitted to therapeutic feeding centers with severe acute malnutrition in Oda Bultum Woreda, Eastern Ethiopia: A cross-section study

Introduction

Although several strategies have been implemented, sub-optimal birth space continues to be a serious public health issue in Ethiopia. There is limited information regarding sub-optimal birth spacing among mothers of children with severe acute malnutrition in the study area. Thus, this study aimed to assess the magnitude of sub-optimal birth spacing and it is associated factors among mothers of children admitted to therapeutic feeding centers with severe acute malnutrition in Oda-Bultum Woreda, eastern Ethiopia.

Methods

An institutional-based cross-sectional study was carried out among 404 randomly selected mothers of children admitted to therapeutic feeding center with severe acute malnutrition in Oda BultumWoreda, Eastern Ethiopia from October 5 to December 4, 2020. A pretested structured interviewer-administered questionnaire was used. The collected data were entered into EpiData version 3.1 and then exported to SPSS version 25 for analysis. Binary logistic regression was used to examine the association between suboptimal birth spacing and independent variables. A P-value < 0.05 was used to declare a statistical significance.

Results

More than half of 213 (52.7%) of the study participants had sub-optimal birth spacing (<33 months). Rural residence (AOR: 1.87; 95% CI: 1.11 – 3.15), younger age at marriage (AOR: 2.92; 95%CI: 1.67––5.10), (AOR: 1.78; 95%CI: 1.07–2.95), not knowing the duration of optimal birth spacing (AOR: 4.12; 95%CI: 1.89–9.00), and shorter breastfeeding duration (AOR: 3.36, 95% CI: 2.09–5.39), and no formal education (AOR: 1.78; 95%CI: 1.07–2.95) were significantly associated with suboptimal birth spacing.

Conclusion

In this study, slightly more than half mothers' whose of children with severe acute malnutrition had suboptimal birth spacing. Rural residence, lack of education, younger marital age, lack of knowledge of ideal birth space, and shorter breastfeeding duration were the identified factors that increase the odds of having sub-optimal birth spacing. To optimize birth spacing in the study area, strategies concerning young women and rural communities are recommended.

期刊介绍： International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
