Background : Preeclampsia is associated with acute and long-term morbidities. Knowledge of obstetric danger signs and birth preparedness are important strategies at enhancing utilization of skilled care in low income countries. It is generally believed that in light of a looming disaster, those who promote and regulate health and safety need to understand how people think about and respond to risk. We undertook this study because we wanted to know how women in Mbarara perceive vulnerability or risk of death due to severe preeclampsia and how their perceptions influence their response. Methods: This was a cross sectional study that recruited mothers on the postnatal ward. These women were expected to have gained knowledge about pregnancy danger signs during their antenatal period. Women were classified to have either high knowledge perceptions or low knowledge perceptions based on their perceived knowledge of symptoms, complications, right decision and perceived dangers. Knowledge ab...

Background: This study investigated the knowledge, attitude, and practice of preeclampsia/eclampsia (PE/E) preventive measures among pregnant women in Kano. Methods: This study applied sequential mixed-method research to understand the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of preventive measures for PE/E; as part of the discovery phase of a broader project that applies modi ed human-centred design model to understand the roles of both patients and healthcare providers in the prevention and management of PE/E. Data were collected using structured questionnaires through face-to-face interviews and focus group discussions. This study was limited to 16 health facilities from two (2) Local Government Areas in Kano State: Kumbotso and Ungogo, representing a diverse group of pregnant women comprising 828 participants. The quantitative data was analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 (IBM® Armonk, USA) Chisquare and logistic regression model. Con dence level was set at 95% and p-value <0.05 was considered signi cant. MAXQDA software (version 2022.8) was used for qualitative analysis. Results: Of the 828 pregnant women who participated in the study, 281 (33.9%) had adequate knowledge of PE/E, 693 (83.6%) showed a positive attitude and 416 (50.2%) expressed good practice towards PE/E prevention. There were signi cant association between the women's sociodemographic characteristics and KAP (p <0.05). Location (rural/urban divide), educational level, source of income, trimester, and number of children were signi cant predictors of KAP of PE/E prevention (p <0.05). The common terminology used to understand PE/E was the occurrence of severe headaches, and their channel of knowledge was in hospitals through health education. The most important theme for attitude was health facility visits; the participants understood the importance of preventing the condition (preeclampsia and eclampsia). However, practice was not directly associated with PE/E prevention, but with better pregnancy outcome. Conclusion: The ndings reveal a connection between educational levels and the knowledge, attitude, and practice of pregnant women towards PE/E preventive measures. Notably, those with lower educational levels tend to exhibit poorer knowledge and attitudes concerning preventive measures. The geographical location and associated ethno-religious connotations have inherently disadvantaged striving women, leading to reduced access to quality healthcare services.
Background: Pregnancy induced hypertension, including preeclampsia and eclampsia are the major health problem and the main cause of the maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality in Tanzania. The aim of this study was to assess knowledge and myths about preeclampsia and eclampsia and its influence in Antenatal Clinics (ANC) utilization among pregnant women and their male partiners in Mtwara region. Method: A community based cross-sectional analytical study conducted in Mtwara Region, a random sampling procedure was employed to obtain a sample size of 384 pregnant women and their male partners a total of 768 participants (male=384 and female =384). Interviewer structured questionnaire was used for data collection and Statistical package for social science (SPSS v.20) software was used for data entry and analysis. Descriptive statistics, cross tabulation, Principal component analysis (PCA) were conducted and inferential statistics was used to test association between variables obtained. Results: Among 768 participants, male partners 167(43.5%) and pregnant women 171 (44.5%) had adequate knowledge on preeclampsia and eclampsia. More than a half 396(51.6%) of study respondents had weak myths while 372(48.4%) had strong myths on pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. Furthermore, pregnant women 244 (64%) had adequate antenatal care utilization. Study participants who had adequate knowledge on pre-eclampsia and eclampsia were almost 3 times more likely to utilize antenatal care services (AOR = 2.827; CI = 1.719-4.651; p<0.001). Study participants who had weak myth on pre-eclampsia and eclampsia were less likely to have adequate antenatal care attendance ((AOR= 0.370; CI= 0.229; p< 0.001). Conclusion: The overall knowledge on preeclampsia and eclampsia was low. Majority of the female had adequate antenatal service utilization. Majority of respondents had weak myths. Government and stakeholders should ensure that community is equipped with knowledge about preeclampsia and eclampsia and the available Myths should be dispelled.

are the responsibility of the IVCN Conference Committee. IVCN Mortality rate (MMR) is 102 per 100,000 live births. This value decreased by 0.10 points compared to 2014, to 4,444 [2]. In addition to bleeding and infections, pre-eclampsia is responsible for high maternal mortality in Indonesia, with bleeding reaching 28%, pre-eclampsia 24%, and infections 11% [3]. The prevalence of preeclampsia ranks first in Indonesia at 25%, and the prevalence of preeclampsia in West Java is 24% [2017]. In Chimahi, the prevalence of preeclampsia is 25%, but this number has decreased compared to 2015 [3]. Preeclampsia can cause complications for the fetus and mother if not treated properly. Preeclampsia-The effects of eclampsia on the mother include placental abruption, hemolysis, cerebral hemorrhage, ocular capillary damage, blindness, pulmonary edema, liver necrosis, cardiac damage, increased hemolysis, liver enzyme syndrome, and kidney damage. [4]. ]. The effect of pre-eclampsia on the fetus is that it does not receive enough nutrients due to lack of blood and nutrients to the placenta, which results in impaired growth of the baby in the womb. The fetus does not receive enough nutrition, which can lead to 4,444 birth defects, including stillbirth. The most serious complication of preeclampsia is maternal death [4]. The risk of preeclampsia is very high, so prevention is important. The first step in prevention is finding the risk factors for preeclampsia. Risk factors for preeclampsia include primigravida, hyperplasia (e.g. : hydatidiform mole, multiple pregnancy, diabetes, hydrops fetalis, large baby), extreme age, pre-eclampsia There is a family history of the disease. / Eclampsia, kidney disease that was present before pregnancy, hypertension, and obesity [5]. Age is an important part of reproductive status. Age is associated with an increase or decrease in body functions, which affects a person's health status. The current trend is that 4,444 people are getting married early by the age of 35. According to Health Research data (2010), the rate of early marriage before age 35 is 0.6%. Based on these data and the many risk factors for preeclampsia, researchers are interested in studying age, asage35 has a significant impact on a mother's health status postpartum. This study differs from previous studies that used cross-sectional studies. This study used a case-control method with a retrospective approach. The study was conducted at Dastira Kindergarten Hospital
