Abstract
Abstract Background Antenatal depression is the most common psychiatric disorder during pregnancy and it’s associated with psychosocial and obstetric factors. Antenatal depression has serious consequences for the mother and fetus, such as recurrent spontaneous abortions, pregnancy induced hypertension, pre-eclampsia, postpartum bleeding, pre-term delivery, postnatal depressive disorders and low birth weight. However it doesn’t get appropriate attention.Methods Institutional based cross-sectional study design was conducted on 446 pregnant women coming for antenatal care service at Jinka public health facilities, from June 01 to June 30, 2018. Data was collected through semi-structured and pretested questionnaire by face to face interview technique and Beck Depression Inventory was used to assess women’s depression condition. Collected data was entered in to Epi data version 3.3.1 after checking their completeness and exported to statistical package for social science version 20.0 for analysis. Logistic regression was used to find out association between explanatory and response variables. Explanatory variables which fulfill the assumption of logistic regression and had P-value less than 0.25 from bi-variable logistic regression were considered for the multivariable logistic regression model. Strength of association was evaluated using odds ratio at 95% confidence interval and P-value < 0.05 was considered to declare significant associations.Result The magnitude of antenatal depression in this study was 24.4%(20.2-28.5 at 95% CI) and it had statistically significant association with unmarried marital status AOR =13.39 [(95%CI); (3.11-57.7)], chronic medical illness AOR=3.97 [(95%CI); (1.07-14.7)], unplanned pregnancy AOR =6.76 [ (95%CI); (2.13-21.4)], history of abortion AOR =2.8 [(95%CI); (1.14-7.02)], history of previous pregnancy complication AOR =4.8 [(95%CI); (2.12-17.35)] and fear of pregnancy related complications AOR=5.4 [(95%CI); (2.32-12.4)].Conclusion and recommendation The magnitude of antenatal depression was high. So integrating mental health service in antenatal care assessment, provide comprehensive family planning service and improve obstetric service are recommended.
