- W4386229384 abstract "Introduction: A newly cut neonatal umbilical stump is a potential portal of pathogen entry leading to omphalitis. Neonatal sepsis can complicate omphalitis, but good cord care practices can reduce this risk. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess umbilical cord care practices in tertiary-, secondary- and primary-level healthcare facilities in Jos, Nigeria. Methods: A multi-centre, cross-sectional study of 284 mothers of infants aged 3–6 weeks old attending immunisation clinics in the three-level healthcare facilities using multistage sampling technique between April and September 2019. Data were analysed using SPSS version 23.0. Pearson’s Chi-squared test was used to compare categorical variables. Adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used as point and interval estimates, respectively. P < 0.05 was adjudged to be statistically significant. Results: The mean age of the mothers and infants was 25 ± 6 years and 5 ± 1 week, respectively. Only 2.2% of mothers used chlorhexidine (CHX) gel for cord care. Mothers showed good knowledge but poor practice of cord care. A significant positive relationship was observed between quality of cord care practices and level of healthcare facility (χ2 = 15.213; df = 2; P < 0.001). Good cord care practices were predicted by mothers’ age 30–46 (AOR = 3.6; CI: 1.4–9.1) and good knowledge of cord care (AOR = 4.7; 95% CI: 2.2–9.9). Conclusions: The study has highlighted the good knowledge but poor practices of cord care by mothers and the need to scale up the uptake of CHX gel in Jos. Mother’s age and good knowledge of cord care are predictors of good cord care practices." @default.
