Knowledge of neonatal danger signs and associated factors among mothers attending pediatric immunization clinics in Gidan District Health Centers North Wollo Ethiopia

摘要

The majority of neonatal deaths in developing countries occurred at home due to late recognition of the signs of serious illness by parents or caregivers. In Ethiopia, besides the attempts made to scale-up the maternal and child health services, maternal knowledge of neonatal danger signs is low. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the knowledge of neonatal danger signs and associated factors among mothers attending pediatric immunization clinics in Gidan district health centers, North Wollo, Ethiopia.
