摘要
背景:紧急避孕是在性交后和潜在着床前使用，为妇女在无保护的性交后预防怀孕提供了最后的机会。目的:本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚西北部Dangila Hidase高中女学生关于紧急避孕的知识、态度和做法。方法:对2019年5月1日至30日在丹吉拉希达斯高中就读的女学生进行了基于机构的横断面研究。采用系统随机抽样的方法选择研究对象。Dangila Hidase高中有1219名学生。其中625人是女学生。九年级女生346人，十年级女生279人。样本按比例分配到每个等级。采用预先测试的自我管理结构化问卷。数据输入Epi Info 3.5，导出到SPSS 24进行分析。结果:共接触了262名16 ~ 19岁的女大学生，回复率为100%。在听说过紧急避孕的受访者中，最常见的避孕方法是口服避孕药(98.51.4%)，其次是宫内节育器(42.22.1%)。共有75名(58.6%)参与者知道建议服用的药片数量。190名(72.5%)受访者了解紧急避孕措施，147名(77.4%)受访者对紧急避孕措施的使用持积极态度。在有过性行为的70人(26.7%)中，只有20人(28.6%)采取了紧急避孕措施。结论:尽管有关于紧急避孕的信息，但在正确使用时间方面存在差距。答复者的积极态度可能表明，环境肥沃，可以采取干预措施，减少意外怀孕和相关并发症造成的产妇发病率和死亡率。
Assessment of Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Regarding Emergency-Contraception Methods among Female Dangila Hidase High School Students, Northwest Ethiopia, 2019.
Background: Emergency contraception is used after intercourse and before potential implantation, offering women a last chance to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse.
Objective: This study aimed to assess knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding emergency contraception among female students at Dangila Hidase high school in northwest Ethiopia.
Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted among female students at Dangila Hidase high school from from May 1 to 30, 2019. Systematic random sampling was used to select study participants. There were 1,219 students in Dangila Hidase high school. Of these, 625 of them were female students. There were 346 female students in grade 9 and 279 students from grade 10. Samples were allocated proportionally to each grade. A pretested self-administered structured questionnaire was used. Data were entered into Epi Info 3.5 and exported to SPSS 24 for analysis.
Results: A total of 262 female students aged 16-19 years were approached, and the response rate was 100%. Among respondents who had heard about emergency contraceptive, pills were the most commonly known method 98, 51.4%) followed by intrauterine contraceptive devices 42, 22.1%). A total of 75 (58.6%) participants had knowledge of the recommended number of pills to be taken. Of the 190 (72.5%) respondents who knew about emergency contraception, 147, 77.4%) had favorable attitudes toward its use. Of those who had had sexual intercourse 70, 26.7%), only 20 (28.6%) had used emergency contraception.
Conclusion: Even though there is information available about emergency contraception, there is a gap with regard to the correct time of use. The positive attitudes of the respondents could be an indication of a fertile environment for possible interventions and reduction in maternal morbidity and mortality resulting from unwanted pregnancies and related complications.
