Data were entered by using EpiData version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 24 software. Descriptive findings were presented by frequency tables and percentages. Multicollinearity was checked and the goodness of fit test was done. To determine the independent determinants associated with meconium aspiration syndrome, bivariate analysis was done and variables with a <i>p</i> value of <0.05 were SAGE open medicine20503121221124693https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9486254biostudies-literatureDeterminants of meconium aspiration syndrome among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit at Nigist Eleni Mohammed Memorial Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, South Ethiopia: Unmatched case-control study.PMC9486254Ezo EAwgchew SfalseDeterminants of meconium aspiration syndrome among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit at Nigist Eleni Mohammed Memorial Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, South Ethiopia: Unmatched case-control study.<h4>Objective</h4>To identify determinants of meconium aspiration syndrome among neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit at Nigist Eleni Mohammed Memorial Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, South Ethiopia, in 2022.<h4>Method</h4>A facility-based unmatched case-control study was used to identify meconium aspiration syndrome with a total sample size of 249 from January to April 2022.
