From Global Rights to Local Relationships
Widespread reports of "disrespect and abuse" in maternity wards in low- and middle-income countries have triggered the development of rights-based respectful maternity care (RMC) standards and initiatives. To explore how international standards translate into local realities, we conducted a team ethnography, involving observations in labor wards in government facilities in central Malawi, and interviews and focus groups with midwives, women, and …
Concept mapping to reach consensus on a 6‐month exclusive breastfeeding strategy model to improve the rate in Northeast Thailand
In implementation research, it is essential to involve all stakeholders in the development of complex interventions to ensure that the proposed intervention strategy is relevant and acceptable to the target area and group. The aim of this study was to involve stakeholders in conceptualising, developing, and prioritising a feasible intervention strategy to improve the 6-month exclusive breastfeeding rate in North-east Thailand. Concept mapping was…

Women's autonomy in household decision-making
BACKGROUND: How socio-demographic factors influence women's autonomy in decision making on health care including purchasing goods and visiting family and relatives are very poorly studied in Nepal. This study aims to explore the links between women's household position and their autonomy in decision making. METHODS: We used Nepal Demographic Health Survey (NDHS) 2006, which provided data on ever married women aged 15-49 years (n = 8257). The data…
A practical approach to identifying maternal deaths missed from routine hospital reports
BACKGROUND: Accurate estimates of the number of maternal deaths in both the community and facility are important, in order to allocate adequate resources to address such deaths. On the other hand, current studies show that routine methods of identifying maternal deaths in facilities underestimate the number by more than one-half. OBJECTIVE: To assess the utility of a new approach to identifying maternal deaths in hospitals. METHOD: Deaths of wome…
A value‐added study of the impact of science curriculum reform using the National Pupil Database
This article compares the examination performance of students following General Certificate of Secondary Education Applied Science and Double Award science on a value‐added basis. It uses data from the National Pupil Database, which are analysed by a variety of methods, including multilevel modelling. It argues that the claims made within Office for Standards in Education reports on the impact of the new Applied Science course are inaccurate, and…
The Skilled Attendance Index
Increasing the proportion of deliveries with skilled attendance is widely regarded as key to reducing maternal mortality and morbidity in developing countries. The percentage of deliveries with a health professional is commonly used to assess skilled attendance, but measures only the presence of an attendant, not the skills used or the enabling environment To supplement currently available information on the presence of an attendant at delivery, …
