Dr. Henna Budhwani, assistant professor in the department of health care organization and policy at the University of Alabama at Birmingham — in collaboration with Dr. Kristine Ria Hearld, assistant professor in UAB’s School of Health Professions; and Ms. Hanne S. Harbison, nurse practitioner in UAB’s division of infectious diseases — recently examined individual and area level factors associated with maternal health care utilization in Pakistan.
The 2012–2013 Pakistan Demographic and Health Surveys data was used to model five outcomes: 1) prenatal care within the first trimester; 2) four plus prenatal visits; 3) birth attendance by a skilled attendant; 4) birth in a medical facility; and 5) receipt of postnatal care. Less than half of births were to mothers receiving prenatal care in the first trimester, and approximately 57 percent had trained personnel at delivery. Over half were born to mothers who received postnatal care.
