The main aim of this study was to assess iron and folic acid supplementation adherence among pregnant mothers attending antenatal care in public health facilities of North Wollo Zone northern Ethiopia. An institution based quantitative cross-sectional study design was employed, on 422 pregnant women in North Wollo Zone, northern Ethiopia. Systematic random sampling and purposive sampling methods were used to select study participants for the quantitative and qualitative studies respectively.
The overall adherence status of pregnant women attending antenatal clinic was found to be 43.1% (95% CI, 38.6%-48.1%). Obtained counseling about iron and folic acid supplementation (AOR = 2.93, 95% CI 1.43-6.03), having four or more antenatal care visit (AOR = 2.94, 95% CI 1.39-6.21), early registration time (AOR = 3.04, 95% CI 1.85-5.01), good knowledge of anemia (AOR = 2.25, 95% CI 1.32-3.82) and good knowledge of IFAS (AOR = 2.47, 95% CI 1.47-4.16) were statistically and positively associated with pregnant mothers adherence to iron and folic acid supplementation.
本研究的主要目的是评估在埃塞俄比亚北部北沃洛州公共卫生设施接受产前护理的孕妇中铁和叶酸补充剂的依从性。采用基于机构的定量横断面研究设计，对埃塞俄比亚北部北沃洛州的422名孕妇进行研究。分别采用系统随机抽样和目的抽样方法选择定量和定性研究的参与者。
发现前往产前诊所的孕妇的总体依从率为43.1%（95%置信区间，38.6%-48.1%）。获得铁和叶酸补充剂的咨询（调整后比值比[AOR]=2.93，95%置信区间1.43-6.03）、进行四次或更多次产前检查（AOR=2.94，95%置信区间1.39-6.21）、早期登记时间（AOR=3.04，95%置信区间1.85-5.01）、对贫血有良好认知（AOR=2.25，95%置信区间1.32-3.82）以及对铁和叶酸补充剂有良好认知（AOR=2.47，95%置信区间1.47-4.16）与孕妇对铁和叶酸补充剂的依从性在统计学上呈正相关。
