In the study setting, there was limited evidence on obstetric violence. Hence, this study aimed at assessing the prevalence and associated factors of obstetric violence among women who gave birth in Gondar University Specialized Comprehensive Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 409 women had been participated in the study with a response rate of 100%. Three in four (75.1%) women reported that they had been subjected to at least one form of obstetric violence during labor and delivery with 95% CI (70.9\u201379.0). The reported forms of obstetric violence include non-consented care\u2014260 (63.6%), non-dignified care\u2014226 (55.3%), physical abuse\u2014192 (46.9%), non-confidential care\u2014132 (32.3%, neglected care\u201452 (12.7%) and discriminated care\u201438 (9.3%). On the contrary, none of the respondent had reported detention for failure to pay in the hospital. The multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that urban residents (AOR\u2009=\u20091.89; 95% CI 1.11, 3.22) and primary school attendants (AOR\u2009=\u20090.49; 95% CI 0.27, 0.91) were significantly associated with experiencing obstetric violence. This study indicated the high prevalence of obstetric violence. Thus, interventions need to be undertaken by taking the reported forms of obstetric violence and participants\u2019 sociodemographic status in to account.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13104-019-4614-4","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,9,18]],"date-time":"2019-09-18T10:07:31Z","timestamp":1568801251000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":71,"title":["Obstetric violence and its associated factors among postnatal women in a Specialized Comprehensive Hospital, Amhara Region, Northwest Ethiopia"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Muhabaw Shumye","family":"Mihret","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,9,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"4614_CR1","unstructured":"Internataional Days of Action for Women's Health. \n                    https:\/\/www.may28.org\/obstetric-violence\/\n                    \n                  . 2018."},{"key":"4614_CR2","first-page":"079","volume":"33","author":"ME Kruk","year":"2014","unstructured":"Kruk ME, et al.
