OBJECTIVE: To determine which questions are most appropriate for describing the complications of childbirth experienced in research.
METHODOLOGY: An instrument was formed for a quantitative questionnaire for data collection with a cross-sectional study design of 300 respondents. The study was conducted at Abdoel Moeloek Regional Hospital, A. Dadi Tjokrodipo Regional Hospital and Kotaarang Community Health Center in January-June 2024. Inclusion criteria were women giving birth in the hospital obstetrics room with a diagnosis of postpartum hemorrhage, pre-eclampsia or eclampsia, Dystocia caused by uterine atony, uterine abnormalities, and mothers giving birth normally. The exclusion criteria were plans to move domicile from Lampung Province during the research and home addresses that were difficult to reach. Logistic regression was used to determine the most predictive questions regarding complications and each question item's accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity values ??. We use SPSS software to analyze data.
RESULTS: The study showed that this questionnaire could be used for survey research that asks about the accuracy of mothers' answers about complications of pre-eclampsia, bleeding, and Dystocia, with the highest accuracy value of 0.93, se. 90.7% and sp.98.2% on the questionnaire for pre-eclampsia; accuracy: 0.84, se.73.3%, and sp. 99.1% for the bleeding questionnaire, and accuracy values of 0.96, se.97.3%, sp. 98.7% for the dystocia questionnaire.
CONCLUSION: The questionnaire for the three groups of labor complications had a high accuracy value (> 70%). The survey times at the hospital and the mother's home were equally good.
