Most women don't stay in the hospital long enough after giving birth to receive quality postnatal care.
大多數婦女產后沒有在醫院待足夠長的時間接受好的產后護理。
That's according to a report from the World Health Organization. It recommends that women stay in the hospital for at least 24 hours after a vaginal birth and 72 hours after cesarean-section delivery.
根據世界衛生組織的報告,建議女性陰道分娩后至少24小時,剖宮產后72小時需要住在醫院。
The WHO report says the numbers vary depending on the region, but up to 83 percent of women aren't staying long enough after vaginal deliveries, and 75 percent are leaving too soon after a C-section delivery.
世界衛生組織報道稱數量取決于地區,多達百分之83的女性陰道分娩后沒有待足夠長的時間,百分之75的女性剖宮產后離開醫院太早。
Ninety-two countries were examined in the study, only 10 of which were low-income nations. The length of a hospital stay varied greatly.
研究調查了92個國家,只有10個是低收入國家。住院時間長短大不相同。
In Egypt, women only remained in the hospital half a day after a vaginal birth, while women in Ukraine spent more than 6 days in the hospital.
在埃及,女性陰道分娩后只留在醫院半天,而烏克蘭女性會在醫院超過6天。
The WHO says the reasons so many women leave the hospital early aren't well understood, but it may have something to do with social norms and the health care systems themselves.
世界衛生組織表示,許多婦女過早離開醫院的原因尚不清楚,但可能與社會規范和自身醫療保健系統有關。
The group recommends countries take a closer look at what's causing the problem and more clearly define appropriate care standards after childbirth.
