This analytical cross-sectional survey included all pregnant women who are coming for prenatal check-up at the Out-Patient Department of FEU-NRMF Medical Center. The duration of the study was five (5) months. The questionnaire was pre-tested among 84 respondents from another institution. This was based on the total number of items multiplied by 3. The sample size was derived using the formula for the estimation of single proportion for a cross-sectional survey. Assuming a response rate of 80% this study requires at least 424 respondents, with time constraints we were only able to include 180 respondents in this survey. Among the 180 women who were included in this survey, 78.3% (141/180) have good or regular prenatal check up but this was not statistically significant. Among the barriers associated with poor prenatal care, three were statistically significant: occupation of patients, psychological and or emotional problems, and nutrition. It is important to know and understand the patients concerns that impedes access to prenatal care, take time to counsel the patient it she has psychological, emotional and nutritional problems. The critical importance of early and continuous care requires us to consider why women do not get prenatal care to desive appropriate means to ensure that they do. | ||
