Abstract

Maternal morbidity is physical ill health related to pregnancy and childbirth or any maternal complication during pregnancy, labour and puerperium. Severe maternal morbidity is a life-threatening obstetric complication. The importance of severe maternal morbidity is that it precedes maternal mortality and is therefore critical in the understanding of the factors that influence maternal mortality. The overall aim of the study was to investigate risk factors associated with severe maternal morbidity and progression to maternal mortality in Mulago hospital, Kampala, Uganda. The study had two stages: Stage 1 was an unmatched case-control study of severe maternal morbidity and Stage 2 was a follow-up of all cases from Stage 1 to discharge or death. A total of 499 cases of severe maternal morbidity and 500 controls (women with normal deliveries and no severe maternal morbidity) were studied. Both the cases and controls were interviewed to obtain information on socio demographic factors, previous obstetric outcomes and present obstetric performance. Information on obstetric management was extracted from clinical notes. All cases and controls were tested for HIV, syphilis and haemoglobin level. A total of 39 of the 499 severe maternal morbidity cases died. The causes of SMM were severe pre eclampsia (25%), severe dystocia (31%) Post partum haemorrhage (19%), ante partum haemorrhage (14%) puerperal sepsis (5%) and medical diseases (6%). The main risk factors for severe maternal morbidity were low socio economic class, long distance from home to Mulago hospital, having specific medical conditions, having to request permission to attend health unit, having a long interval since the last birth, HIV positive status and poor quality of care during antenatal and delivery. Further details, plus separate analyses of specific causes of SMM (eclampsia, post partum haemorrhage, severe dystocia and ante partum haemorrhage) are presented. Determinants of progression to maternal death included low socio economic class, factors associated with management of labour, and HIV/AIDS. The main conclusion from this work is that improvements in the social and economic status of women, the level of HIV in the community, and the quality of care offered 2 during pregnancy will reduce the burden of severe maternal morbidity and mortality in Kampala, Uganda. It is likely that these results can be generalised to other areas of sub-Saharan Africa and usefully integrated into Safe-Motherhood Programs there.

Subjects
Teenage pregnancy, associated factors, Eastern Uganda
Abstract

Introduction: In Uganda, 12% of the audited maternal deaths occur among teenagers. The prevalence and factors associated with teenage pregnancy in health facilities is not well documented. We determined the prevalence and factors associated with teenage pregnancy in Mbale Regional Referral Hospital. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross sectional study between July and September 2019.We consecutively enrolled and collected information from 427 respondents. Associated factors were determined using logistic regression, a P-value < 0.05. Results: The prevalence of teenage pregnancy was 20.6% [95% CI : (17.0% - 24.7%)]. Rural residence [(AOR: 2.8 (1.08 – 7.09)], primary level of education [(AOR: 9.57 (3.48 – 26.3)], unhappy feelings about the current pregnancy [(AOR: 3.57(1.05 – 12.15)], primiparity [(AOR: 21.05 (7.36 – 60.15)] increased the likelihood of teenage pregnancy. While, history of ever use of contraceptives [(AOR: 0.32 (0.12 – 0.84)], age at coitarche [(AOR: 0.68 (0.54 – 0.85)], grand multiparity [(AOR: 0.06 (0.01 – 0.51)], and exposure to sex education at home [(AOR: 0.37 (0.15 – 0.89)] decreased its likelihood. Conclusion: The prevalence of teenage pregnancy was high. It was associated with being resident in rural area, low level of education and ever use of contraception. Promotion of reproductive health education may prevent teenage pregnancy. Keywords: Teenage pregnancy; associated factors; Eastern Uganda.

More women want to delay the next birth. We determined the prevalence and factors associated with postpartum contraceptive use among teenage mothers in Mbale City.Patients and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in all the six government-supported health facilities within Mbale City. Over a period of 3 months, 511 teenage mothers in the postpartum period were consecutively enrolled by midwives/nurses. Data were collected using a pretested interviewer-administered questionnaire. We used logistic regression in STATA version 14, to determine the association between various sociodemographic characteristics and utilization of contraception. We set the level of significance at 5% and report odds ratios and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals.Results: Most of the respondents – 314/511 [61.5%, 95% CI= 57.1– 65.6%] – were using contraceptives. More than three-fourth (238/314) of the respondents opted for short-term methods of contraception. In the adjusted analyses, intention to resume school [AOR 1.79 (1.16– 2.74)], and utilization of maternal Child Heath services such as postnatal care services [AOR 0.40 (0.25– 0.63)] were significantly associated with utilisation of postpartum contraception.Conclusion: We found a high prevalence of postpartum contraceptives use – over 6 in 10 women – although they were using mainly short-term methods. Those with intentions of resuming schooling and utilised postnatal care services were most likely to use contraceptives. This is encouraging and calls for inquiry into why their use is higher than the national averages. Further, the results call for renewed efforts to maintain adolescent mothers in school.Keywords: contraceptive use, postpartum, teenage mother, Uganda, determinants
