- W3199687130 abstract "Abstract Background Globally, about 289,000 maternal deaths are registered annually. Timely access to quality maternal health services is an effective intervention to reduce maternal deaths. Postnatal care (PNC) is one of the recommended packages in the continuum of maternity care aimed at reducing maternal and neonatal mortality. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with PNC utilisation in Sierra Leone. Methods We used Sierra Leone Demographic and Health Survey (UDHS) 2019 data of 7,326 women aged 15 to 49 years. We conducted multivariable logistic regression to determine the factors associated with PNC utilisation, using SPSS version 25. Results Out of 7,326 women, 3,329 (45.5%, 95% CI: 44.6–46.8) had their babies have at least a PNC contact, 6,646 (90.7%, 95% CI: 90.2–91.5) had a postnatal check after childbirth and 3,133 (42.8%, 95% CI: 41.9–44.1) had PNC for both their babies and themselves. Delivery by caesarean section (aOR 1.79, 95% CI: 1.20–2.67), having a visit by a health field worker (aOR 1.77, 95% CI: 1.47–2.13), having had eight or more ANC contacts (aOR 1.79, 95% CI: 1.45–2.22), initiating ANC after first trimester (aOR 1.18, 95% CI: 1.04–1.35), being a Muslim (aOR 1.34, 95% CI: 1.11–1.61), belonging to richer wealth quintile (aOR 1.69, 95% CI: 1.22–2.35), being of low parity (2–4) (aOR 1.20, 95% CI: 1.04–1.39), having no big problems seeking permission to access healthcare (aOR 1.52, 95% CI: 1.27–1.83) and having had delivery at home (aOR 1.75, 95% CI: 1.32–2.32) were associated with more PNC utilisation odds. On the other hand, being resident in the Eastern region (aOR 0.31, 95% CI: 0.21–0.46) and urban areas (aOR 0.71, 95% CI: 0.52–0.98) were associated with lower odds of utilising PNC. Conclusion Although maternal PNC utilisation is high, utilisation of PNC by neonates alone and by both the mother and neonatal is low. More focus is needed to mothers and their neonates from the Eastern region, urban areas, Christians, less empowered in terms of healthcare seeking decision making and those who are more parous, utilise less ANC contacts and utilise health facilities for delivery." @default.
