RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Patient satisfaction is a critical measure of the quality of healthcare services provided by healthcare facilities. However, very few studies, particularly in Ethiopia, which includes the study area, have specifically examined these discrepancies among people who use outpatient care. In this study, satisfaction levels and associated factors were compared between insured and uninsured patients receiving outpatient services at public health institutions in Hadiya Zone, southern Ethiopia. METHODS: A facility-based comparative cross-sectional study design was employed on 630 patients using multistage and systematic random sampling. Data were collected using a pretested and structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. Results of the analysis were presented in text, tables, and graphs as appropriate. Multivariable logistic regression was used to predict associations between predictors and the outcome variable. Statistical significance was declared at p-value < 0.05. RESULTS: Overall, 344(55.48%) patients were satisfied with the service they received, of which 206(65.8%) out of 313 with a 95% CI [60.7-71.2%] were insured and 138(44.95%) out of 307 with a 95% CI [39.4-5.1%] were uninsured. Among insured patients, factors associated with higher satisfaction included having a family size less than five members [AOR = 3.3, 95% CI; 1.5, 7.4], perceived fair waiting time to be seen[AOR = 2.35, 95% CI; 1.02, 5.5], perceived short waiting time to be seen[AOR = 8.12, 95% CI; 1.6, 41.3], having all ordered laboratory tests available within the facility[AOR = 7.89, 95% CI; 3.5, 17.5], having some ordered laboratory tests within the facility[AOR = 2.97, 95% CI; 1.25, 7.01] having all prescribed medications available within the facility[AOR = 16.11, 95% CI; 6.25, 41.5], having some prescribed medications available within the facility[AOR = 13.11, 95% CI; 4.7, 36.4]. Among non-insured patients, factors associated with higher satisfaction included urban residency, a fair and short perceived time to be seen, having ordered laboratory tests within the facility, and having prescribed drugs within the facility. CONCLUSION: This study identified lower overall satisfaction, particularly among uninsured patients. Enrollment in the CBHI program significantly impacted satisfaction, with both groups reporting lower levels compared to enrollment periods. Access to essential services, wait times, and socio-demographic factors identified as associated factors with patient satisfaction regardless of insurance status.

RESUMO

Background: Operative vaginal delivery refers to vaginal delivery performed with the use of instruments such as forceps or vacuum. Operative vaginal delivery-related maternal complications are still a serious problem, but they are one of the least investigated in Ethiopia, particularly in the study area. Increased difficulties have been attributed to a lack of understanding on how to anticipate the procedure's complications. Identifying typical OVD complications can assist health providers in detecting and intervening early. The goal of this study was to find out which characteristics contributed to maternal problems during surgical vaginal birth. Methods: A health facility-based cross-sectional study design was used. From December 2019 to November 2021, a total of 326 mother's OVD medical records were selected from a total of 1000 OVD medical records using a simple random sampling method. A checklist was used to collect the data. Binary logistic regression was computed and variables with a p value ≤0.2 in the bivariate logistic regression were taken to multivariate logistic regression analysis to examine the real relationship or statistical association with the outcome variable. The p value of <0.05 with a 95% confidence interval was considered a significant variable. The results are presented using tables, figures, and texts. Results: Maternal complications were prevalent in 62 of the cases (19%). The type of operative vaginal delivery instrument used (AOR = 2.248; 95% CI (1.144, 4.416)), the station of the presenting part at which the OVD was performed (AOR = 3.199; 95% CI (1.359, 7.533)), neonatal birth weight (AOR = 3.342; 95% CI (1.435, 7.787)), and duration of the second stage (AOR = 2.556; 95% CI (1.039, 6.284)) were significantly associated with the unfavorable maternal outcomes of operative vaginal delivery. Conclusions: Maternal complications are high in the study area. The type of operative vaginal delivery used, the duration of the second stage, the station of the presenting part at which the OVD was performed, and neonatal birth weights were all significantly related to maternal complications. While using the instrument, mothers with the identified factors should be given special attention.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Health system responsiveness refers to non-financial, non-clinical qualities of care that reflect respect for human dignity and interpersonal aspects of the care process. The non-clinical aspects of the health system are therefore essential to the provision of services to patients. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to assess the responsiveness in maternity care, domain performance and factors associated with responsiveness in maternity care in the Hadiya Zone public Hospitals in Southern Ethiopia. METHODS: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was employed on 413 participants using a systematic sampling technique from 1 July to 1 August 2020. An exit interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. EpiData (version 3.1) and SPSS (version 24) software were used for data entry and analysis, respectively. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression were computed to identify the associated factors of health system responsiveness in maternity care at 95% CI. RESULTS: The findings indicated that 53.0% of users gave high ratings for responsiveness in delivery care. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, mothers aged ≥ 35 (AOR = 0.4; 95% CI = 0.1-0.9), urban resident (AOR = 2.5; 95% CI = 1.5-4.8), obstetrics complications during the current pregnancy (AOR = 2.1; 95% CI = 1.1-3.0), and caesarean delivery (AOR = 0.4; 95% CI = 0.2-0.7) were factors associated with poor ratings for responsiveness in maternity care. CONCLUSION: In the hospitals under investigation, responsiveness in maternity care was found to be good. The findings of this study suggest that the ministry of health and regional health bureau needs to pay attention to health system responsiveness as an indicator of the quality of maternity care.
