Method: A retrospective Hospital based cross sectional study was done and random sampling technique was used ,303 records were examined , pre-tested data extraction checklist was used to collect the data and entered by kobo tool box then exported and analyzed using SPSS version 26 , binary logistic regression model used ,and finally Adjusted Odds Ratio with 95% CI and p value less than 0.005 was considered as statistically significant for the assessment of Outcomes of non-traumatic acute abdomen and associated factors in adult patients at Tibe be Ghion Specialized Hospital, department of surgery, Bahir Dar, from October 28,2022-November 8,2022. Results: The prevalence of non-traumatic acute abdomen was found to be 90%. Those patients with guarding (AOR=2.976,95% CI = (1.0465,8.467), post operative complication (AOR=0.165 ,95% CI= (0.077,0.353), and temperature >=37.5 (AOR=5.876,95% CI= (1.775,19.450) were significantly associated with outcome of non-traumatic acute abdomen. Conclusion: Appendicitis was the most common cause of non-traumatic acute Tibebe Ghion Specialized Hospital followed by intestinal obstruction, and peritonitis.
