Pregnancy Examination (Antenatal Care) on the Prevention of High-Risk Pregnancy Events Accelerated the Referral System Efforts to Avoid Maternal Death in Dairi Regency North Sumatra, Indonesia

Introduction: The pregnancy screening websites evaluated in this study were accessed through various hardware devices, including personal computers (PCs), laptops, notebooks, and smartphones. Among various hardware options, researchers have chosen smartphones as a suitable container due to their widespread use, portability, space efficiency, effectiveness, efficiency, affordability, and practicality. Smartphones for some people, are phones that work using all operating system software that provides standard and fundamental relationships for application developers. In addition, smartphones are designed to work through an operating system, which allows users to freely add applications, functions, or make changes as desired, much like a computer. This includes the ability to operate a website. Methods: This study was a case-control study. The sample included 60 pregnant women, with 30 having high-risk pregnancies and 30 having normal pregnancies. The analyses used are univariate and bivariate. Bivariate analysis employs the chi-square statistical test with a confidence level of 95%. Multivariate analysis using multiple logistic regression. Results: The results indicate that knowledge, attitudes, actions, family income, support from family and posyandu cadres have an impact on the prevention of high-risk pregnancy events. Among these factors, family support was found to be the most influential. However, the study also revealed that efforts to prevent high-risk pregnancy events through pregnancy examination (antenatal care) have not been fully optimized. Conclusion: The study concludes that arranging the order of pregnancies can prevent high-risk pregnancies in Dairi Regency. It is recommended that the government and related parties improve the implementation and supervision of pregnancy care to prevent high-risk pregnancies. This will ensure that the referral system operates effectively, ultimately reducing the incidence of maternal death.
