目的：贫血仍然是埃塞俄比亚的一个主要公共卫生问题，它会导致孕产妇和胎儿的严重后果。在Tigrai，关于孕妇贫血患病率和相关因素的文献有限。因此，在阿迪格拉特总医院进行了一项基于医院的横断面研究，以确定贫血的患病率和相关因素。使用SPSS 22版对数据进行分析和计算。p值= 0.05在95%的置信区间被认为是statistically significant.Results：贫血的孕妇出席阿迪格拉特总医院的总体患病率为7.9%。轻度贫血（Hgb：10.0-10.9g/dl）占62.5%，中度贫血（Hgb：7 ~ 9.9g/dl）占37.5%。居住在农村地区等因素使贫血风险增加6倍（AOR = 6，95% CI 1.34，27.6，p = 0.019），受试者当前失血（AOR = 3.4，95% CI 1.16，10.2，p = 0.026），有近期流产史（AOR = 7.9，95% CI 2.23，28.1，p = 0.001）和孕晚期胎龄（AOR = 4.9，95% CI 1.39，17.6，p = 0.013）与贫血有统计学相关性。一般来说，贫血的患病率被认为是在研究领域的低。然而，应给予适当的重视。因此，需要通过评估不同的微量营养素缺乏症以进一步奋进来控制孕妇贫血。
Objectives: Anemia remains a major public health problem in Ethiopia, which causes maternal and fetal severe consequences. In Tigrai, there are limited literatures on prevalence of anemia and associated factors among pregnant women. Thus, a hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the prevalence and associated factors of anemia in Adigrat General Hospital. Data was analyzed and computed using SPSS version 22. p value = 0.05 at 95% confidence interval was considered statistically significant.Results: Overall prevalence of Anemia among the pregnant women attending Adigrat General Hospital was 7.9%. About 62.5% and 37.5% of the anemic women were with mild (Hgb: 10.0-10.9g/d1) and moderate (Hgb: 7-9.9g/dl) type respectively. Factors like, residing in rural areas increases risk of anemia by 6 times (AOR = 6, 95% CI 1.34, 27.6, p = 0.019), participants having current blood loss (AOR = 3.4, 95% CI 1.16, 10.2, p = 0.026), having history of recent abortion (AOR = 7.9, 95% CI 2.23, 28.1, p = 0.001) and gestational age in the third trimester (AOR = 4.9, 95% CI 1.39, 17.6, p = 0.013) were statistically associated with anemia. Generally, prevalence of anemia is found to be low in the study area. However, it should be given due attention. Therefore, strong endeavor is needed to control anemia among pregnant women by assessing different micronutrient deficiencies for further prevention.
