Quality of medical services provided to mothers, newborns and children at the hospital level in the Kyrgyz Republic
Background: The Kyrgyz Republic has recently implemented health programmes to improve the quality of care for mothers, newborns and children. To support these efforts, a three-year World Health Organization (WHO) quality improvement (QI) project aimed to strengthen clinical practices and service delivery. This study was conducted to independently assess the project's effectiveness and inform policy and programming. Methods: Data were collected re…
How to cut child mortality in half again
The gap between what primary healthcare (PHC) could achieve and what it currently delivers remains wide. Preventable child deaths remain a reality, particularly in underserved communities, and hard-won gains risk being reversed by diminishing attention. Making PHC work for children and adolescents requires clear, evidence-based standards, supportive health systems, and community-driven engagement. The WHO Pocket Book of Primary Health Care for Ch…
Improving the quality of care for mothers, newborns, and children in ten hospitals of the Republic of Tajikistan
Background: Tajikistan has accomplished reductions in maternal, newborn, and child mortality over the past decades through targeted policies and interventions. Challenges remain in providing quality healthcare due to limited resources, geographic barriers, and inadequate infrastructure. We aimed to evaluate the impact of a quality improvement (QI) initiative implemented in ten district hospitals from 2021 to 2024 to improve maternal, newborn, and…
Priorities for child and adolescent health in Europe and Central Asia
Background: Childhood and adolescence (0-19 years) is a critical time for laying the foundations for life-long good health and well-being. To support the development of the new World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) European Regional Strategy for Child and Adolescent Health and Well-being, we undertook a European Region-wide survey of representatives of Member States (MS), child health professionals (CHPs)…
Long-term outcomes of a paediatric quality improvement project in Central Asia
Background: Quality health care is essential for reducing child mortality. A three-year World Health Organization (WHO) quality improvement (QI) project, implemented in the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan between 2012 and 2014, aimed to enhance the quality of paediatric hospital care and thereby reduce child mortality. The intervention included training on international guidelines, provision of medicines, supplies, and equipment, and supportive su…
Paediatric care in hospitals in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan
Background: Adequate quality of paediatric care remains one of the key factors for reducing child mortality and improving child health in Central Asia. We aimed to assess the quality of paediatric care in hospitals in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan before and after a two-year intervention. We implemented a multifaceted approach to improve healthcare quality, focussing on case management, hospital policies, and service organisation. Methods: We assesse…
A systematic, standards-based, participatory assessment of a continuous quality improvement project in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan
Background: Progress in reducing neonatal mortality in low- and middle-income countries in Central Asia, such as Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, has been slow. We aimed to explore deficiencies in neonatal care quality, highlight areas for improvement, and propose evidence-based actions to promote further progress in both countries. Methods: In this mixed-methods study, we evaluated neonatal care quality before and after a two-year quality improvement …
Refocusing on the foundations
The World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for Europe and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNIICEF) Europe and Central Asia have jointly led the development process of a new strategy for children and adolescents in Europe - a healthy start for a healthy life - to guide evidence-based, future-oriented action across the Region. It was developed through a multi-step process, including a regional assessment, commissioned evidence reviews,…
A systematic, standard-based, participatory assessment of a Continuous Quality Improvement project in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan
Background: Maternal health care quality remains challenging in low- and middle-income countries, including Central Asia, where access to effective care is limited. While quality improvement (QI) interventions have been introduced, their impact is rarely evaluated. This study evaluates the effects of a two-year, complex QI intervention to improve maternal health services in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Methods: We employed a pre-post intervention d…
Advancing the quality of maternal, newborn, and child healthcare
Background: Maternal, newborn, and child mortality rates in the Kyrgyz Republic are high compared to other countries in the European Region of the World Health Organization (WHO). Global evidence suggests that at least half of the maternal and newborn deaths could be prevented with improved quality of healthcare. To address this, we undertook a quality improvement project over two years in ten pilot hospitals of the Kyrgyz Republic. Methods: We a…
Unnecessary hospitalisations and polypharmacy practices in Romania
Background: Children and pregnant women usually have multiple contacts with the health care system. While most conditions can be managed by primary health care (PHC) providers, hospitalisations are nevertheless common and often unjustified. The number of hospitalizations decreased in Romania at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. While this is likely due to the disruption of health services and public health measures established to limit the spre…
Hypogalactia after delivery
Breastfeeding has incontestable proven health benefits for mothers and babies [1], yet less than half of all babies globally benefit from optimal breastfeeding [2]. The recent Lancet Series on breastfeeding examines social, political, ideological, and economic reasons underlying this phenomenon [3]. Poor healthcare, including the medicalisation of birthing and infant care, is reported as one [...]
Wasting resources in health care – unnecessary hospitalisations and over-medicalisation
Quality of care is a key element of universal health coverage [1]. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines it as the degree to which health services increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes; health care should be effective, safe, people-centred, timely, equitable, integrated, and efficient [1,2]. Waste in health care is any activity that does [...]
Global, regional, and national disease burden estimates of acute lower respiratory infections due to respiratory syncytial virus in children younger than 5 years in 2019
BACKGROUND: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common cause of acute lower respiratory infection in young children. We previously estimated that in 2015, 33·1 million episodes of RSV-associated acute lower respiratory infection occurred in children aged 0-60 months, resulting in a total of 118 200 deaths worldwide. Since then, several community surveillance studies have been done to obtain a more precise estimation of RSV associated co…
