摘要

背景。妊娠期贫血是发展中国家孕妇发病和死亡的一个主要原因，对孕产妇和胎儿都有影响。尽管已知其对健康的严重影响，但在整个加莫戈法区，特别是在埃塞俄比亚南部的阿尔巴明奇镇，关于这一重大公共卫生问题的研究证据很少。因此，本研究旨在评估在埃塞俄比亚南部加莫戈法区阿尔巴明奇镇卫生机构接受产前保健的孕妇中贫血的患病率及其相关因素。方法。本研究于2015年2月16日至4月8日对在Arba Minch镇政府卫生机构接受产前保健的332名孕妇进行了基于机构的横断面研究。采用访谈者管理的问卷，辅以实验室测试来获取数据。使用双变量和多变量logistic回归来确定贫血的预测因子。结果。Arba Minch镇产前护理孕妇贫血患病率为32.8%。家庭平均月收入低(AOR = 4.0);95% CI: 5.62-11.01)，生育间隔小于2年(AOR = 3.1;95% CI: 6.01, 10.23)，补铁(AOR = 2.31;95% CI: 7.21, 9.31)和家庭规模(AOR = 2.8;95% CI: 1.17, 6.81)是妊娠期贫血的独立预测因子。结论。在研究地区，贫血被认为是一个中度的公共卫生问题。平均月收入低、生育间隔少于两年、补铁和家庭人口多是妊娠期贫血的危险因素。建议提高对生育间隔的认识，就食用富含铁的食物提供营养咨询，并补充铁，以预防孕妇贫血，特别强调低收入和大家庭的孕妇。

Prevalence of Anemia and Its Associated Factors among Pregnant Women Attending Antenatal Care in Health Institutions of Arba Minch Town, Gamo Gofa Zone, Ethiopia: A Cross-Sectional Study

Background. Anemia during pregnancy is a major cause of morbidity and mortality of pregnant women in developing countries and has both maternal and fetal consequences. Despite its known serious effect on health, there is very little research based evidence on this vital public health problem in Gamo Gofa zone in general and in Arba Minch town of Southern Ethiopia in particular. Therefore, this study aims to assess the prevalence and factors associated with anemia among pregnant women attending antenatal care in health institutions of Arba Minch town, Gamo Gofa zone, Southern Ethiopia. Method. Institution-based, cross-sectional study was conducted from February 16 to April 8, 2015, among 332 pregnant women who attended antenatal care at government health institutions of Arba Minch town. Interviewer-administered questionnaire supplemented by laboratory tests was used to obtain the data. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify predictors of anemia. Result. The prevalence of anemia among antenatal care attendant pregnant women of Arba Minch town was 32.8%. Low average monthly income of the family (AOR = 4.0; 95% CI: 5.62–11.01), having birth interval less than two years (AOR = 3.1; 95% CI: 6.01, 10.23), iron supplementation (AOR = 2.31; 95% CI: 7.21, 9.31), and family size >2 (AOR = 2.8; 95% CI: 1.17, 6.81) were found to be independent predictors of anemia in pregnancy. Conclusion. Anemia is found to be a moderate public health problem in the study area. Low average monthly income, birth interval less than two years, iron supplementation, and large family size were found to be risk factors for anemia in pregnancy. Awareness creation towards birth spacing, nutritional counselling on consumption of iron-rich foods, and iron supplementation are recommended to prevent anemia among pregnant women with special emphasis on those having low income and large family size.

期刊介绍： Anemia is a peer-reviewed, Open Access journal that publishes original research articles, review articles, and clinical studies on all types of anemia. Articles focusing on patient care, health systems, epidemiology, and animal models will be considered, among other relevant topics. Affecting roughly one third of the world’s population, anemia is a major public health concern. The journal aims to facilitate the exchange of research addressing global health and mortality relating to anemia and associated diseases.
