description | INTRODUCTION: Caesarean section is one of the lifesaving procedures of medical interventions attributed to the decrease of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity rates. The World Health Organization (WHO) shows a cesarean rate between 5% and 15%. However, the prevalence of cesarean section is increasing globally as well as in Ethiopia. Different scholars argue that the prevalence and factors of the caesarian section vary in different countries and health institutions. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and factors associated with cesarean section in Debre Tabor Comprehensive Specialized Hospital. METHOD: An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted on a total of 320 mothers who gave birth at Debre Tabor Comprehensive Specialized Hospital from July 01, 2020, to October 30, 2020. The samples were selected using the convenience sampling technique. The Data were collected using a structured checklist. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regressions were used to check the association. P-values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of cesarean section was 39.1% in the current study. Mothers age 35–39 years, educational level college and above, employed, mothers with a monthly income of >6000, and mothers with a previous history of cesarean section were significantly associated with an increased risk of cesarean section. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of cesarean section was high in Debre Tabor Comprehensive Specialized Hospital. Age of the mothers, educational status, occupation, monthly income, and previous history of cesarean section were significantly associated with an increased occurrence of cesarean section. |
