We examined husbands' knowledge and attendance at their wives' postpartum visit in a sample of rural husband-and-wife farmer dyads in central Malawi. A cross-sectional matched-pairs survey of 70 husband-and-wife farmer dyads, who lived in rural communities in Ntcheu district, and had a live birth in the past year was conducted. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered, structured postpartum questionnaire adapted from WHO Safe Motherhood Needs Assessment Questionnaires. Many husbands did not know about postpartum assessments and education their wives received from health facilities. Percent agreement between dyads' responses was lower on questions referring to assessments than to education. The odds of reporting that the woman received postpartum assessments were greater among husbands than among wives. Fifty-nine percent of husbands did not go with their wives for 1-week postpartum visits. Top three reasons for not attending visits were: at work, out of town, and did not see the need.
我们在马拉维中部农村夫妻农民样本中，调查了丈夫对妻子产后访视的了解情况以及陪同妻子进行产后访视的情况。对恩彻乌区农村社区70对夫妻农民进行了一项横断面配对调查，这些夫妻在过去一年中有过活产。数据收集采用了由访谈员管理的结构化产后问卷，该问卷改编自世界卫生组织安全孕产需求评估问卷。许多丈夫不知道妻子从卫生机构接受的产后评估和教育情况。在涉及评估的问题上，夫妻双方回答的一致率低于涉及教育的问题。报告妻子接受产后评估的丈夫的比例高于妻子。59%的丈夫没有陪同妻子进行产后1周的访视。不陪同访视的三大原因是：在工作、外出以及认为没有必要。
