• W2306972014 abstract "Malaria remains the leading health problem in Sub-Saharan Africa. Pregnant women are the main adult group at riskof significant morbidity and mortality from this disease. A three pronged approach was advocated for its controlamongst pregnant women, one of which was use of ITN as it has been found to offer protection against the morbidityarising from malaria in pregnancy. This study sets out to determine the attitude and practice of pregnant women inthis area to this important protective tool. Semi-closed ended questionnaires were administered on pregnant womenattending antenatal clinics at first contact over a period of three months. The questions were on their attitude andpractice to bed nets in general and Insecticide Treated Nets (ITNs) in particular. Over ninety percent of the studypopulation had one form of mosquito-net at home. However, bed net possession in the study population was 16.9%and 14.8% for Insecticide treated nets. Only 10.4% of those who had ITNs slept on them the night before. Giving itfree was the main reason that could compel the respondents to use ITNs. More than two-thirds (66.1%) of them werehowever willing to buy the ITNs at an unspecified cost. Lack of access to information, non-availability, frequentpower outages and hot weather were identified as reasons for non-possession and use of ITNs among the women.While education, marital status and awareness have significant relationship with attitude (p value=0.000), onlyawareness and marital status have significant relationship with practice. It is suggested that government should stepup its efforts at improving the awareness of the benefits of ITNs use and make it more available and affordable for thepopulace. Subsidized cost as opposed to outright free distribution accompanied by participatory approach is likelyto ensure sustainability of the process and likelihood that the nets will be retained and effectively used in thecommunity. Early and regular use of ITNs in pregnancy should be a part of the Health education in the antenatal andinfant welfare clinics." @default.
