The subjects were followed up to 42 days of postpartum with a minimum of three visits; the first visit was within 14 days of delivery and subsequent visits were every 14 days. A first visit was made to 211 women and 174 (82.46%) completed the study. Seventy-four percent reported at least one morbidity and there were 1.75 reported morbidities per woman per postpartum period. Common problems reported were: weakness, lower abdominal pain, perineal pain, abnormal vaginal discharge, high fever, breast problems, excessive vaginal bleeding, etc. There was greater morbidity among women of lower socioeconomic status, parity &gt;4, birth interval &gt;36 months, having a breech or caesarean delivery or a delivery assisted by relatives\/neighbours. A significant positive association was found between age and non-maintenance of the \u2018five cleans\u2019 during delivery. Seventy-five percent of those who had reported morbidity had taken some action, but only 20% sought help from a qualified doctor and 14% from other health workers. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/td.2008.070417","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,26]],"date-time":"2008-09-26T21:24:03Z","timestamp":1222464243000},"page":"204-208","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Maternal morbidity during postpartum period in a village of north India: a prospective study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"38","author":[{"given":"Somdatta","family":"Patra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Community Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Ansari Nagar, New Delhi 110 029, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bir","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Community Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Ansari Nagar, New Delhi 110 029, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"V P","family":"Reddaiah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Community Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Ansari Nagar, New Delhi 110 029, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr-TD-07-0417C1","unstructured":"Maternal Mortality in 2000.
