Maternal mortality in Bangladesh was 320 per 100,000 live births between the years of 1998 and 2000. Utilization of maternal health services remains low in the low-resource countries like Bangladesh. This study attempts to evaluate the levels, patterns, and trends of utilization of antenatal care (ANC) services in Bangladesh. This is a descriptive study based on national surveys of Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey (BDHS) 2007, 2004, 1999-2000, 1996-1997, and 1993-1994. Bangladeshi women reported low utilization of ANC. Approximately 52% of women received antenatal care from medically trained providers in 2007. The median number of ANC visits was 3.1 in 2007. About 63% of women were not informed about the signs of pregnancy complications. The proportion of women who received ANC services and information on the signs of pregnancy complications as well as the median number of ANC visits showed an increase in 2007 compared with 2004.
1998 年至 2000 年间,孟加拉国的产妇死亡率为每 10 万活产儿 320 人。在孟加拉国等资源匮乏的国家,孕产妇保健服务的利用率仍然很低。本研究试图评估孟加拉国利用产前护理(ANC)服务的水平、模式和趋势。这是一项基于孟加拉国人口与健康调查(BDHS)2007、2004、1999-2000、1996-1997 和 1993-1994 年全国调查的描述性研究。孟加拉国妇女报告称,她们很少利用 ANC。2007 年,约有 52%的妇女接受了医疗培训提供者的产前护理。2007 年,接受 ANC 的中位数为 3.1 次。约有 63%的妇女没有被告知妊娠并发症的迹象。与 2004 年相比,2007 年接受 ANC 服务和妊娠并发症迹象信息的妇女比例以及 ANC 就诊的中位数均有所增加。
