| Summary, etc. | Abstract:<br/><br/>Background: Tanzania is among countries with high maternal mortality rate. Every pregnant woman is at risk of developing pregnant related complications like severe vaginal bleeding, swelling of face and lower limbs (oedema), severe headache with blurred vision, convulsions, severe abdominal pain, and fever. Knowledge and recognition of danger signs during pregnancy would result in timely emergency obstetric care and prevention of maternal death. <br/><br/>Objectives: The study was aimed at determining awareness on danger signs and associated factors on danger signs among women attending antenatal clinic. <br/><br/>Methods: This was a cross sectional analytical study which aimed at determining awareness and associated factors of the obstetric danger signs among women attending antenatal clinic. The study was carried out between September and October 2018. Women who consented were recruited through convenience sampling and questionnaires were administered. The statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 20 software for windows was used to analyze the data by applying descriptive and inferential statistics. <br/><br/>Results: Total of 236 women were enrolled. Among these women 20 were multi-gravida (8.5%) and 216 (91.5%) were prim-gravida both groups attended ANC {table 4.1}. Out of 236 women attending antenatal clinic, (27.3%) respondents aware of severe bleeding, (5.3%) convulsions, (16%) headache and blurred vision, (12.2) severe abdominal pain, (15%) absent of fetal movement, (5%) severe fever, (6%) high blood pressure (11.7%) oedema. 19 women knew from elsewhere and 55 women knew nothing about obstetric danger signs despite attending antenatal clinic. Only (29%) knew > 3 obstetric signs.<br/><br/>Conclusion: In general women attending ANC still have low knowledge (awareness) about these danger signs that happen during pregnancy, only (29%) of women knew > 3 danger signs. <br/><br/>Recommendations: The leaders of the health facilities should find different strategies in delivering the education of danger signs to all women, hence the women who had more than primary education were more aware of >3 obstetric danger signs. <br/> |
