“…A more in-depth regression analysis showed that women whose spouses had, at most secondary education were more likely to have higher knowledge levels than other spouses' education groups. This result agrees with Laksono et al [39 ], who reported that spouses with higher levels of education were more likely to get involved in their wives' antenatal visits and education. Our ndings suggest the need for maternal education on VTE and creating pointers to predictors of VTE knowledge levels.…”

Background: Pregnancy is a significant risk factor for Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) which results in high maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality rates. Awareness creation is one of the preventable strategies of VTE. To this effect, we designed the 'Move for Flow' program aimed at maternal health education on VTE, its symptoms and preventive strategies. For the best implementation of this program, the current knowledge level of the relevant population is of great interest in guiding the program design and implementation. Aim: To assess the knowledge levels of VTE among Nigerian pregnant women. Methodology: In this cross-sectional survey, 1000 pregnant women residing in Enugu, Nigeria, completed a structured questionnaire which assessed their knowledge of VTE, its risk factors and prevention strategies. Quantitatively, their knowledge levels were categorized as no, poor, average and good knowledge. Results: The majority of the respondents did not know about pregnancy-related deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (80.8%) and pulmonary embolism (PE) (88.9). Predictors of DVT knowledge levels include husbands’ level of education ( at most secondary education) ( AOR=4.2; 95%CI =2.554-6.816; p= <0.001) and maternal age (AOR=0.9; 95% CI=0.930-0.999; p=0.044) while predictors of PE knowledge level include husbands’ level of education (at most secondary education) (AOR=2.1; 95%CI=1.005-4.436; p=0.048)and maternal occupation (professionals) (AOR=0.4; 95% CI=0.219-0.794; p=0.008) Conclusion: Pregnant women are unaware of pregnancy-related VTE in Enugu, Nigeria. Immediate designing and implementation of the 'Move for Flow' program are recommended to improve maternal knowledge levels of VTE.

“…Patriarchal culture is among other brings about mother has less power in some communities [38]. In addition, a couple's neglected risk of pregnancy is something familiar for a married couple; nevertheless, lesser evidence would happen in the urban areas as access and information related matter is easier to be cached up [39][40][41]. Our results, consistent with a study from Madhya Pradesh, India, showed that women living in an extended family that had good family relationships were more likely to receive antenatal services.…”

Background Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Indonesia is still high, 305, compared to 240 deaths per 100,000 in South East Asian Region. The use of Traditional Birth Attendance (TBA) as a cascade for maternal health and delivery, suspected to be the pocket of the MMR problem. The study aimed to assess the influence of traditional practices on maternal health services in Indonesia. Methods We used two data sets of national surveys for this secondary data analysis. The samples included 14,798 mothers whose final delivery was between January 2005 and August 2010. The dependent variables were utilization of maternal healthcare, including receiving antenatal care (ANC≥4), attended by skilled birth attendance (SBA), and having a facility-based delivery (FBD). The independent variables were the use of traditional practices, type of family structure, and TBA density. We run a Multivariate logistic regression for the analysis by controlling all the covariates. Results Traditional practices and high TBA density have significantly inhibited the mother’s access to maternal health services. Mothers who completed antenatal care were 15.6% lost the cascade of facility-based delivery. The higher the TBA population, the lower cascade of the use of Maternal Health Services irrespective of the economic quintile. Mothers in villages with a high TBA density had significantly lower odds (AOR = 0.30; CI = 0.24–0.38; p<0.01) than mothers in towns with low TBA density. Moreover, mothers who lived in an extended family had positively significantly higher odds (AOR = 1.33, CI = 1.17–1.52; p<0.01) of using maternal health services. Discussion Not all mothers who have received proper antenatal delivered the baby in health care facilities or preferred a traditional birth attendance instead. Traditional practices influenced the ideal utilization of maternal health care. Maternal health care utilization can be improved by community empowerment through the maternal health policy to easier mothers get delivery in a health care facility.

“…It is encouraged by a high regard for the husband as the family's head and a lack of wealth of mother, which causes the mother powerless to oppose men's decisions (Djano, Laksana & Utomo, 2021). Several literature studies in Indonesia explained that husbands possess full autonomy in the decision to select antenatal care (Laksono, Wulandari & Matahari, 2020) dependency and cultural traditions, numerous patriarchal societies in Bangladesh also deny women autonomy and prevent them from seeking antenatal care services without the approval of their husbands (Ghose et al, 2017).…”

The utilization of antenatal services for pregnant women can be determined based on the achievements of K1 (first contact) and K4 (4 times contact) during pregnancy with competent and authorized health workers. The World Health Organization asserts that the attitude and performance of health workers are an essential elements of service quality as it affects the understanding and satisfaction of women, partners, and families in seeking ANC, delivery, and postnatal services. The objective of this research is to examine the effect of antenatal care by midwives and the satisfaction of pregnant women on antenatal visits. The type of this research is analytic observational with a cross-sectional design, performed from March - June in Kupang City. The research subjects were 120 pregnant women with a gestational age of 36 weeks. Data collection employed questionnaires and MCH Handbook. The analysis conducted was univariate and bivariate by employing the Chi-square test with Alpha = 0.05. The results of the study on 120 pregnant women demonstrated that most of the pregnant women received good service (98.3%) and most of whom (60%) were satisfied with the services they experienced. Seventy-one people (59.2%) possessed complete visits. The Chi-square test results revealed relationship between service and satisfaction of pregnant women with antenatal visits (p = 0.652, p = 0.324). The majority of pregnant women had thorough consultations, received adequate antenatal care, and were pleased with the services they received. In addition to satisfaction, health services and programs must be performed in accordance with local culture and language in order to be accepted by the community, encompassing a decision-making culture that can influence pregnant women's visits to health facilities. Distance, education, profession, parity, and the husband's support can all have an impact on the mother's adherence to antenatal visits.
