Spatial variation and determinants of skilled birth attendant delivery among women of reproductive age in Ethiopia: a spatial and multilevel analysis

Skilled birth-assisted delivery remains below national and international acceptable standards and is associated with geographic variation across the country. If it continues at the current pace, it will be difficult to achieve national and international targets. Therefore, a geographic-specific intervention should be launched by the government and respective local administrators, supported by local research in regions with low-skilled birth attendant delivery, to tackle individual and aggregate community-level determinants.
