Jump To References Section
Abstract
The issue of maternal health is the most neglected tragedy of Bhil women of Jhabua District, coupled with ignorance, illiteracy, striking poverty and superstition. The National Institute of Nutrition (1983) reported various risk factors associated with low-birth-weight, height, morbidity and mortality which were assessed among non-pregnant-non-lactating and pregnant and lactating women from a slum. Poor anthropometric indices, adverse factors of previous pregnancy, abortion, perinatal death and short inter-pregnancy interval have been identified as risk factors.Downloads
