Abstract:
Objective: This study was aimed to identify factors affecting neonatal mortality in Ethiopia.
Results: According to the multivariable logistic regression analysis, the odds of neonatal mortality were significantly
associated with husbands with no education (AOR = 2.30, 95% CI 1.10, 4.83), Female birth (AOR = 0.57, 95% CI 0.39,
0.83), twin birth (AOR = 13.62, 95% CI 7.14, 25.99), pre-term birth (AOR = 15.07, 95% CI 7.80, 29.12) and mothers with
no antenatal care (ANC) visit during pregnancy (AOR = 1.90 95% CI 1.11, 3.25).
