Association between receiving information on obstetric complications and institutional delivery: An analysis of the demographic and health survey of Peru, 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To evaluate the association between receiving information on obstetric complications and institutional delivery in Peruvian women in 2019.

Methods

We conducted a secondary analysis of the 2019 Peruvian Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES) database. The dependent variable was the type of delivery (institutional or non-institutional). The exposure variable was self-reporting of having received information on obstetric complications during prenatal care. The association of interest was evaluated using binary logistic regression models, obtaining crude odds ratios (cOR) and adjusted odds ratios (aOR) with their respective 95 % confidence intervals (95%CI). Values of p < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

Results

We included a total of 14,835
