We conducted this review to identify factors associated with birth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR) among pregnant women in Ethiopia. BPCR is a comprehensive approach that helps address delays in seeking care for obstetric problems.
PRISMA was followed and different databases were used to find studies. Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) with a 95% Confidence Interval was used to identify factors. The I statistic, funnel plot, and Egger test were used to assess the heterogeneity of studies and publication bias.
Knowledge of BPCR, danger signs during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum (AOR = 1.99, 95% CI: 1.51, 2.64, AOR = 1.55; 95% CI: 1.35, 1.80; AOR = 1.45; 95% CI: 1.27, 1.63, and AOR = 1.4; 95% CI: 1.21, 1.63), respectively, residency (AOR = 1.49; 95% CI: 1.32, 1.68), antenatal care visit (AOR = 1.59; 95% CI: 1.43, 1.78), history of stillbirth (AOR = 1.58; 95% CI: 1.36, 1.86), and educational status (AOR = 1.62: 95% CI: 1.45, 1.78) were significantly associated with BPCR practice.
This study identified some modifiable factors in the practice of BPCR. Integrating counseling and expanding ANC services in health facilities may improve BPCR practice.
本研究旨在确定与埃塞俄比亚孕妇的生育准备和并发症准备（BPCR）相关的因素。BPCR 是一种综合方法，有助于解决因产科问题而延迟寻求医疗的问题。
我们遵循 PRISMA 原则，并使用不同的数据库来查找研究。使用调整后的优势比（AOR）和 95%置信区间来确定因素。我们使用 I 统计量、漏斗图和 Egger 检验来评估研究的异质性和发表偏倚。
BPCR 知识、妊娠、分娩和产后的危险信号（AOR = 1.99，95%CI：1.51，2.64，AOR = 1.55；95%CI：1.35，1.80；AOR = 1.45；95%CI：1.27，1.63，AOR = 1.4；95%CI：1.21，1.63）、居住地（AOR = 1.49；95%CI：1.32，1.68）、产前保健就诊（AOR = 1.59；95%CI：1.43，1.78）、死产史（AOR = 1.58；95%CI：1.36，1.86）和教育程度（AOR = 1.62：95%CI：1.45，1.78）与 BPCR 实践显著相关。
本研究确定了 BPCR 实践中一些可改变的因素。在卫生设施中整合咨询和扩大 ANC 服务可能会提高 BPCR 实践。
