Résumé

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the level of birth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR) and associated factors among semi-pastoral pregnant women in southern, Ethiopia. RESULT: This dataset contains the full data collected from 746 pregnant women. Birth preparedness and complication readiness among women in southern Ethiopia was 27.1%. The main predictors for BRCP were attending formal education (AOR = 4.65, 95% CI 2.45-8.63), husband occupation [merchant (AOR = 3.83, 95% CI 1.52-9.64)], spouse attending formal education (AOR = 3.35, 95% CI (1.83-6.14), ANC visits > 4 times (AOR = 17.78, 95% CI 7.11-44.47). In addition, knowledge of women at least two danger signs during pregnancy, delivery and after delivery (AOR = 3.32, 95% CI 1.64-6.69), (AOR = 3.13, 95% CI 1.58-6.20) and (AOR = 3.75, 95% CI 1.93-7.28) respectively were significantly associated with BPCR. In conclusion, the proportion of BPCR among women in southern Ethiopia was found to be low.
