Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Health - Health system, grade: Very good, Rift Valley Institute Of Science And Technology (Rift Valley University), course: General public health, language: English, abstract: This thesis assesses the utilization of long-acting reversible contraceptive methods and their associated factors among women of the reproductive age group in Bishoftu's public health facilities. A health facility based cross-sectional study was conducted from March 16th to 30th 2020. A systematic random sampling technique was applied, in a total of 227 randomly selected women in the reproductive age group who attend Bishoftu's public health facilities. A structured questionnaire was developed using questionnaires that were applied in different studies related to family planning previously. The data was entered in a computer by using EPI-Info 7 version and cleaned then exported to SPSS version 20. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression was employed to determine independent predictors of long acting and reversible contraceptive utilization. WHO reports indicated that, in 2017 alone, over 295,000 maternal deaths that resulted from pregnancy and delivery related complication were reported worldwide indicating a decline of 45% from 1990. The sub-Saharan Africa region accounted for 62% of maternal death followed by South-Asian countries (24%). Provision of family planning is one of the most effective interventions that prevent unwanted and ill spaced pregnancies by reducing maternal mortality and morbidity. Given its effectiveness and associated fewer visits to health facilities, LARC are very important in tackling maternal mortality and morbidity. However, little is known regarding its prevalence in Bishoftu eastern Ethiopia.
