description | INTRODUCTION: The objective is to describe the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) of men living in a landlocked area towards reproductive health. METHODS: We conducted a mixed methods study (focus group and KAP survey ) in a mountainous region near Marrakech. This descriptive survey involved 74 men ; we used two sampling methods (souk visitors on a weekly basis and persons accompanying the expectant mothers to their antenatal visits as part of an antenatal clinic caravan campaign). Data collection (March - April 2014) was made using a questionnaire translated into respondents' dialect and administered by trained Amazigh-speaking investigators. Quantitative data analysis was descriptive and bivariate (statistical significance level at 5%). Focus group data were analyzed after recording and transcription. RESULTS: The median age was 38 years (19-80 years). Of the 64 men living together (86.5%), half (55.4%) opted for the pill. Two thirds recognized the importance of importance of pregnancy monitoring, while 37% of husbands were unaware of the frequency of follow-up visits. The non-use of services was 56.9% (N = 58) of which 42.4% without any reason. Educational attainment was associated with spouse's pregnancy screening (p = 0.015) and with a positive attitude toward the importance of pregnancy monitoring (p = 0.011). The lack of awareness regarding possible complications (35.1% of respondents) was a factor associated with lack of postnatal care among spouses (p = 0.021). The barriers identified in focus group analysis were cultural, geographic and socio-economic. CONCLUSION: Information, education, communication programmes should mostly aim to involve male participants in similar contexts. |
