Developing context-sensitive, comprehensive newborn care protocols
Background: An estimated 2.3 million neonates die worldwide each year (47% of under-five mortality), with 75% occurring during the first week of life. The burden is highest in sub-Saharan Africa (n/N = 27/1000 neonatal mortality rate) and largely results from preventable conditions, such as prematurity, birth asphyxia, and infections. The Newborn Essential Solutions and Technologies (NEST360) programme supports health systems in resource-constrai…
Potential effectiveness of integrating human milk banking and lactation support on neonatal outcomes at Pumwani Maternity Hospital, Kenya
We assessed the potential effectiveness of human milk banking and lactation support on provision of human milk to neonates admitted in the newborn unit (NBU) at Pumwani Maternity Hospital, Kenya. This pre-post intervention study collected data from mothers/caregivers and their vulnerable neonates or term babies who lacked sufficient mother's milk for several reasons admitted in the NBU. The intervention included establishing a human milk bank and…

However, poor routine data undermines data-informed efforts to monitor and promote improvements in the quality of newborn care across hospitals. METHODS: Continuously collected routine patients' data from structured paper r…
