Abstract: Introduction: Emergency caesarean delivery is a surgical procedure that is decided after the labour pain has started. According to the global report of the World Health Organization, the rate of caesarean sections has risen over time. In Ethiopia, the overall caesarean delivery was 18%, which varied between 46% in the private sector and 15% in the public sector. But specifically, the magnitude of emergency caesarean delivery and its predictors are not well addressed in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study was aimed at assessing the prevalence and predictors of emergency caesarean delivery in Ethiopia using EDHS 2016. Method: A cross-sectional study was used, and a total of 11,022 samples were included in this study. The Ethiopian Demographic Health Survey 2016 data set was used as a data source.
