Title | : | Some Determinants to Reduce Maternal and Child Mortality in Bangladesh |
Country | : | Bangladesh |
Authors | : | Nilima Ahmed |
Abstract: This paper is like to look out whether antenatal visit and place of delivery is influenced or not by several issues like wealth, education of women and husbands, occupation of women and husbands, working status of women in last 12 months. Insight into factors affecting prenatal care usage and place of delivery will help policy-makers redirect health-related strategies and policies in more equitable directions. We use the secondary data from Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey 2011 on 18000 ever married women (12-49 age) following women questionnaire. Using the multiple regression analysis we find that wealth index, women's and their husbands education has significant effect on ante natal visit and place of delivery, but husbands occupation and women's working status in last 12 months has no significance rather some of it negatively affected. Besides, women occupation put marginal effect on place of delivery which is not come out in number of ante natal visits.
