METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted by utilising the data from the Cambodia Demographic Health Survey (CDHS). The records of 5901 pregnant women who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were reviewed. Multiple logistic regression was used to identify the association on the influence of health services and pregnancy factors on incomplete TT vaccination while controlling other covariates. Adjusted odds ratio (aOR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was reported.
RESULTS: More than one-third of the respondents had incomplete TT vaccination (38.25%, 95%CI: 37.00, 39.48%). Health services as well as pregnancy factors were statistically associated with incomplete TT vaccination such as received antenatal care (ANC) from other health personnel beside midwife (aOR=1.83; 95%CI: 1.49, 2.24), had
