“…Sample size was calculated with the help of WHO software for sample size determination. As the prevalence of VAW ranges between 30% and 50%, [14][15][16] we used a prevalence of 50% for maximum variance with an error bound of 5%; this gave a sample size of 385. The sample size was then inflated by 7% for non-respondents to give a final sample size of approximately 412.…”

“…Spousal violence has emerged as an important public health concern in both developed and developing nations, mainly in African and Asian countries including India, as it leads to poor physical, reproductive and mental health outcomes for women and has far reaching consequences on children as well (Campbell, 2002;Ellsberg, Jensen, Heise et al, 2008;Silverman, Decker, Gupta et al, 2009). Intimate partners who are physically violent may interfere with the receipt of healthcare services by their female counterparts (McCloskey, Williams, Lichter et al, 2007).…”

Spousal violence emerged as a major public health concern over the past few decades as its consequences on the health of victims are profound. Infliction of violence during pregnancy is even more detrimental as it might cause serious injuries to women and their unborn children. Violence during pregnancy can restrict access to proper health care and affect the health of mother and child. However, the role of spousal violence on utilization of pregnancy care services is not well explored in India where both fertility and spousal violence are high. In the present study, we used data of selected North and South Indian states from the National Family Health Survey (2005Survey ( -2006 to examine the relationship between experience of spousal violence by young married women and utilization of maternal and child health care services. A marked regional variation was observed in MCH care utilization and levels of violence, where the South Indian states performed better than the North. Spousal violence was a significant factor determining MCH care use. Women who had experienced any form of physical/sexual violence were less likely to receive full ante natal care than non-abused women and the association was stronger in the South. Women experiencing any physical/sexual violence were also less likely to avail institutional delivery in the North. Emotional violence had similar constraining effects on MCH care use in the South. Integration of violence screening and counselling with MCH programs could be helpful to address the needs of abused pregnant women and provide essential care.

“…Studies have found an association between IPV against women and negative social and health consequences for children, including anxiety, depression, poor school performance and negative health outcomes (Black et al, 2008)Two studies from Nicaragua and Bangladesh found that children who are exposed to violence are less likely to be immunized, are at high risk of diarrheal diseases and are most likely to die before the age of 5 years Silverman et al, 2009). …”
