Customization and acceptability of the WHO labor care guide to improve labor monitoring among health workers in Uganda. An iterative development, mixed method study
Cognisant of persistently high maternal and perinatal mortality rates, WHO called for adoption and evaluation of new adaptable and context-specific solutions to improve labor monitoring and health outcomes. We aimed at customizing/refining the new WHO labour care guide (LCG) to suite health care provider needs (HCP) in monitoring labour in Uganda. We used mixed methods to customize/refine and pilot test the new WHO LCG using stakeholder perspecti…
Structured and sustained family planning support facilitates effective use of postpartum contraception amongst women living with HIV in South Western Uganda

We therefore describe future pregnancy plans and associated factors among postpa…
