Women with unplanned pregnancy (AOR = 4.03, 95%, CI 1.56-5.67), Participants whose previous first antenatal care was after 16 weeks (AOR = 3.9, 95% CI 1.98-7.68), Participants did not accompanied by their partner for antenatal visit (AOR = 1.29, 95%, CI 1.05-4.67), women recognized their current pregnancy at 3 months or late (AOR = 4.7, 95%, CI 2.49-9.04) and participants provided adequate time for their previous antenatal care by health professionals (AOR = 0.461, 95% CI 0.342-0.875) were found the determinant factors of late antenatal care at first Visit.

本研究旨在确定2018年埃塞俄比亚北部提格雷东部地区卫生设施首次就诊时晚期产前护理的决定因素。
意外怀孕的女性（调整后比值比[AOR]=4.03，95%置信区间[CI]为1.56 - 5.67）、之前首次产前检查在16周之后的参与者（AOR = 3.9，95% CI为1.98 - 7.68）、产前检查没有伴侣陪同的参与者（AOR = 1.29，95% CI为1.05 - 4.67）、在怀孕3个月及以后才意识到自己怀孕的女性（AOR = 4.7，95% CI为2.49 - 9.04）以及之前卫生专业人员为其产前检查提供了充足时间的参与者（AOR = 0.461，95% CI为0.342 - 0.875）被发现是首次就诊时晚期产前护理的决定因素。因此，计划生育的使用、首次产前检查时间、信息流通以及伴侣的支持在改善首次就诊时的产前护理方面发挥着重要作用。因此，责任机构应关注计划生育的使用、提高对怀孕症状的认识，并且卫生机构在就诊期间应提供充足时间。
