Stillbirth and newborn data quality and use and related input and process factors
Background: High quality data is mandatory when shaping action-oriented policies aimed at reducing preventable neonatal deaths. Ethiopia has a high a neonatal mortality rate, but there has been limited assessment of the quality and use of newborn data, and its contributing factors. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Ethiopia from November 2022 to September 2023 in 35 sites: 24 facilities, 10 subnational data offices, and the Ministr…
Stillbirth and newborn data quality and use and related input and process factors
Background: The reduction of preventable newborn deaths in low- and middle-income countries is a global priority. The availability of high-quality newborn and stillbirth data is essential for shaping action-oriented policies and interventions towards resolving these challenges. Using a mixed-methods approach, we evaluated the input and process factors hindering data quality and use in Uganda. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study from Nov…
Facility newborn and stillbirth data use and enabling factors at different levels of the health system
Background: Improving data quality and use is a priority identified by the World Health Organization (WHO) to reduce stillbirths and newborn deaths; however, few studies have documented newborn and stillbirth data use in the African Region. To address this gap, we conducted a cross-sectional study from November 2022 to July 2024 in 12 regions and four city administrations across the Central African Republic (CAR), Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda. …
Users’ capabilities related to the electronic RHIS for newborn and stillbirth indicators
Background: The electronic routine health information system (eRHIS) is crucial for policy and planning. However, its effectiveness depends on end-users' capabilities in utilising it. Using a mixed-methods approach, we evaluated end-users' data in the Central African Republic (CAR), Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda in one of the first standardised cross-country assessment of eRHIS users' capabilities focussed on newborn and stillbirth indicators. M…
Functionalities of electronic routine health information systems related to newborn data
Background: Adequate functionality of electronic routine health information systems (eRHISs) is crucial for data use, yet few studies explored it in relation to newborn and stillbirth data in Africa. Methods: We conducted this cross-sectional study between November 2022 and July 2024 in data offices at central and subnational levels in 12 regions and 4 city administrations in the Central African Republic (CAR), Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda. Exc…
Organisational and management factors and related end-users’ perspectives relevant to newborn and stillbirth data at different levels of the health system
Background: As few studies systematically analysed organisational and management factors related to newborn and stillbirth data quality, we sought to identify specific gaps in these factors to provide evidence for planning tailored actions. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional survey in 12 regions and 4 city administrations in the Central African Republic (CAR), Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda between November 2022 and July 2024, collecting dat…
Availability and the quality of key newborn data within routine health facility data
Background: With declining funding for population-based household surveys, routine health facility data offer a promising alternative for tracking newborn health and service quality. However, their utility depends on data quality. We assessed the quality of ten data elements within routine health information systems in the Central African Republic (CAR), Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda, seven of which align with the Every Newborn Action Plan core …
Barriers and facilitators to accessing mental health services among young people living with HIV and healthcare professionals in Mozambique
Addressing community and self-stigma and scaling up community MH services, increasing MH staff, are the two main action points that emerged to improve access to MH services. More attention should be paid to YAHIV-, which showed significant access barriers
Decentralization Matters
Since March 2019, a non-communicable diseases program has been established at hospital level, with enrollment and clinical reassessment every 6 months. Since July 2023, monthly enrollment and visits have also been conducted at health center level. This study aimed at assessing the adherence to scheduled follow-up visits following the decentralization of the integrated NCDs program from Hospital to Health Center level and investigate factors influ…
Adherence to WHO guidelines on severe pneumonia management in children and its impact on outcome
Adherence to the revised WHO guideline was limited and not associated with outcomes. Efforts should focus on reducing the gap between theory and practice
Association between ambulance prehospital time and maternal and perinatal outcomes in Sierra Leone
INTRODUCTION: Sierra Leone, one of the countries with the highest maternal and perinatal mortality in the world, launched its first National Emergency Medical Service (NEMS) in 2018. We carried out a countrywide assessment to analyse NEMS operational times for obstetric emergencies in respect the access to timely essential surgery within 2 hours. Moreover, we evaluated the relationship between operational times and maternal and perinatal mortalit…
