“…But in Turkey, a pregnant woman generally receives about 10 times of prenatal care during her pregnancy, a checkup up every month until the first 28 weeks, then every two weeks until the 36th week, and later, every week until the 40th week or the delivery (Akadlı-Ergöçmen, et al, 2014). The average number of prenatal follow-ups (12.41±4.33) reported in another study conducted in Turkey (Izmir) is even greater than ours (Yücel, Çiçeklioğlu, Öcek, & Taner, 2015). Similar to our results, the same study also reported that the most pregnant women received prenatal services from state hospitals and family health centres (Yücel, et al, 2015).…”

“…30 Another study performed in Turkey showed that women covered under health insurance used prenatal care services significantly more than women not covered under health insurance. 40 Wang and Hong 36 also concluded that the rate of giving birth at health care facilities at Cambodia was significantly and 1.2 times higher among women with health insurance compared with those not having health insurance. It can be suggested that health insurance encouraged women to use more maternal and child health care services when they need it because health insurance availability lessens the cost burden especially for women with lower level of income.…”

This study aimed to investigate whether there was an improvement in the equitable access to maternal and child health care services by examining the effects of socioeconomic and individual factors in Turkey from 1993 to 2013 and determine the effectiveness of health care reforms implemented mainly under the Health Transformation Program since 2003 on equitable access t;o maternal and child health care services in terms of years. The study used nationally representative 5 Turkey Demographic and Health Surveys (1993, 1998, 2003, 2008, and 2013). Prenatal care utilization rate increased from 67.0% in 1993 to 96.2% in 2013 while the rate of women giving birth at health care facilities increased from 63.8% to 98.1% in 2013. Prenatal care utilization and giving birth at health care facilities were higher among women who were under health insurance coverage, first time mothers, those staying in the western region and urban areas, and those with the highest level of wealth. The findings suggest that the issue of equity in the utilization of maternal and child health care services exists in Turkey, and the latest health care reforms under HTP are not effective in diminishing the effect of wealth.

Bu çalışmanın amacı doğum öncesi bakım hizmetlerinin nicelik ve nitelik olarak değerlendirilmesidir. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı türdeki bu çalışmanın evrenini bir üniversite hastanesinde son bir yılda doğum yapan 2649 kadın oluşturmuştur. Çalışma evreni bilinen örnekleme yöntemiyle; Şubat-Haziran 2017 tarihleri arasında kadın doğum servislerinde yatan, yeni doğum yapmış, araştırmaya katılmaya gönüllü 336 kadın üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Veriler sosyo-demografik özellikler, obstetrik özellikler, gebelikte alınan sağlık bakımı ve eğitimi belirleme formları ile toplanmıştır. Veriler tanımlayıcı istatistikler sayı, yüzde ve ortalama kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Kadınların yaş ortalaması 28,92±5,71'dir. Gebelikte izlem sayısı ortalamasının 8,05±3,78 olduğu, %80,9'unun izlemlerinin hastanede yapıldığı, %83,3'ünün hemşire ve ebeler tarafından izlendiği, %86'sının 14. haftadan önce izlemlerine başlandığı belirlenmiştir. Gebelik boyunca alınan sağlık hizmetlerinin çoğunluğu ultrasonografi, non-stres test ve kan testidir. Gebelik süresince en az eğitim alınan konular; ağız ve diş sağlığı, sigara ve alkol kullanımı, vb. olarak saptanmıştır. Kadınların doğum sonu döneme hazırlıkta en çok anne sütü ve emzirme (%56,5) konusunda; yarısından daha azının ise yeni doğan bakımı, beslenme, aile planlaması, vb. ile ilgili konularda eğitim aldığı görülmüştür. Sonuç: Doğum öncesi bakım niteliği hala yeterli düzeyde olmayıp artırılması gereklidir. Sağlık personelinin doğum öncesi bakım hizmetlerinin nicelik yanı sıra niteliği konusunda daha duyarlı olmalarına yönelik girişimler planlanmalıdır.
