Conclusion
This study investigated the associates of CS deliveries in Indonesia. It
is observed that mother’s age at childbirth, parity, complications
during pregnancy, the number of PNC visits, and delivery in a private
health facility were significantly and positively associated with the
probability of CS delivery. Women with a history of CS have a
substantially higher probability of undergoing another CS. Moreover, it
is also found years of schooling of women was associated with higher
likelihood of CS delivery. Furthermore, having private health insurance
cover compared to none, and being in a higher wealth index quintile were
found to be positively associated with the probability of CS delivery.
These findings are coherent with that of existing literature and thus
enrich the existing knowledge of the factors associated with CS delivery
in Indonesia. Nevertheless, further studies that update the trend of CS
deliveries and its determinants in Indonesia are recommended.
