The aim of this study was to assess factors which influence utilization of post abortion care service among reproductive age (15-49 yrs) women in selected governmental health institutions in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Methods: Institution based cross sectional study was conducted among 153 respondents aged 15-49 years in six health institutions in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Respondents were obtained proportionally and interviewed consecutively with convenience to respond for the structured pre-tested questionnaire. Data were entered into Epi Info version 3.5.1 and analyzed by using SPSS version 20 software for windows. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were done.
