Abstract

Intimate partner Violence (IPV) can affect any woman, irrespective of their economic status, religion, or culture. This is a human-rights issue and due to its prevalence and adverse effects on pregnancy and birth, it must be given greater attention. Further, there is a lack of data in the Tigray region about adverse birth outcomes due to intimate partner violence during pregnancy. The aim of this study was to assess intimate partner violence during pregnancy and its association with low birth weight and preterm birth in Tigray region. Across-sectional study design was used. 647 women were involved in the study. Simple random sampling techniques were employed to select health facilities and systematic sampling was used to select study participants. Data were entered using Epi info version 3.5.1 and was analyzed using SPSSversion 20. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between exposure to intimate partner violence during pregnancy and preterm birth and low birth weight while adjusting for possible confounders. The prevalence of intimate partner violence during pregnancy was 7.3% and the prevalence of low birth weight and preterm birth were 18.5% and 10.8% respectively. There was a statistically significant association between exposure to intimate partner violence during pregnancy and low birth weight. After adjustment for socioeconomic status, women's habits and obstetric factors, the pregnant women who were exposed to intimate partner violence during pregnancy were two times more likely to have a child with a low birth weight (2.39 (95% CI: 1.26-4.55)). The prevalence of intimate partner violence during pregnancy, low birth weight, and preterm birth in this study was high. Women who experienced intimate partner violence during pregnancy had an increased risk of low birth weight. These findings justify a call to the federal minster of health to take measures aimed at avoiding intimate partner violence during pregnancy to reduce adverse birth outcomes.

摘要

亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)可影响任何女性,无论其经济地位、宗教信仰或文化背景如何。这是一个人权问题,由于其在妊娠和分娩中普遍存在且具有不良影响,因此必须给予更多关注。此外,提格雷地区关于因妊娠期间亲密伴侣暴力而导致不良分娩结局的数据不足。本研究旨在评估妊娠期间亲密伴侣暴力及其与低出生体重和早产的关系。采用横断面研究设计。共有 647 名妇女参与了这项研究。采用简单随机抽样技术选择医疗机构,采用系统抽样选择研究参与者。使用 Epi info 版本 3.5.1 输入数据,并使用 SPSS 版本 20 进行分析。使用逻辑回归分析评估妊娠期间暴露于亲密伴侣暴力与早产和低出生体重之间的关联,并在调整可能的混杂因素后进行分析。妊娠期间亲密伴侣暴力的发生率为 7.3%,低出生体重和早产的发生率分别为 18.5%和 10.8%。妊娠期间暴露于亲密伴侣暴力与低出生体重之间存在统计学显著关联。在调整社会经济地位、妇女习惯和产科因素后,妊娠期间暴露于亲密伴侣暴力的孕妇发生低出生体重儿的可能性增加了两倍(2.39(95%CI:1.26-4.55))。本研究中妊娠期间亲密伴侣暴力、低出生体重和早产的发生率较高。妊娠期间经历亲密伴侣暴力的妇女发生低出生体重的风险增加。这些发现证明有理由呼吁联邦卫生部长采取措施,避免妊娠期间的亲密伴侣暴力,以减少不良分娩结局。
