Determinan Abortus di Indonesia
Abortion has become a main problem in public health because of its impact on maternal morbidity and mortality. There is no comprehensive data on abor¬tion in Indonesia. So far, data were based on survey with limited coverage. Unsafe abortion is responsible to 11 percent of maternal mortality in Indonesia. This research objective is to determine factors related to abortion in Indonesia. The study was an observational method with cross sectional design. These data are gathered from Indonesian Demography and Health Survey 2002-2003. Data analysis used univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis with logis¬tic regression. The risk of an abortion increased in line with the increasing of maternal age. Women with 0-2 parity have higher risk than multiparity (OR=5.2, IK95%=3.49-7.89). Employed women have higher risk than unemployed (OR=2.7, IK95%=2.10:3.58). The risk of abortion increased among women married at 30 years old or over (OR=1.8, IK95%=1.30-2.48). There is no significant association between history of abortion, education, socioeconomic and risk of
abortion.
