Reduction of stillbirth rate in refugee and migrant populations living on the Thailand Myanmar border
Understanding the local causes of stillbirth is essential to providing safe care in pregnancy and birth. This study describes the rate and causes of stillbirth and identifies factors associated with stillbirth in the migrant and refugee population residing in border regions between Thailand and Myanmar. A retrospective review of medical records of all singleton pregnancies delivered or followed at antenatal clinics of the Shoklo Malaria Research …
Migrant women’s experience of antenatal care in an urban and rural setting in north and North-West Thailand
Maternal perception of fetal movements
The study assessed perception, knowledge, and practices regarding maternal perception of fetal movements (FMs) among women and their healthcare providers in a low-resource setting. Semi-structured interviews, questionnaires and focus group discussions were conducted with 45 Zanzibar women (18 antenatal, 28 postpartum) and 28 health providers at the maternity unit of Mnazi Mmoja Hospital, Zanzibar, Tanzania. Descriptive and thematic analyses were …
Evaluation of the Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care training in Gondar, Ethiopia; a mixed methods study
In Ethiopia maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality remains high. Timely access to quality emergency obstetric and neonatal care is essential for the prevention of adverse outcomes. Training healthcare providers can play an important role in improving quality of care, thereby reducing maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to evaluate change of knowledge, skills and behaviour in health workers who attende…
The global use of the International Classification of Diseases to Perinatal Mortality (ICD-PM)
Evidence-based interventions to reduce mortality among preterm and low-birthweight neonates in low-income and middle-income countries
Applicability of the WHO maternal near-miss tool
BACKGROUND: Maternal near-miss (MNM) is an important maternal health quality-of-care indicator. To facilitate comparison between countries, the World Health Organization (WHO) developed the "MNM-tool". However, several low- and middle-income countries have proposed adaptations to prevent underreporting, ie, Namibian and Sub-Sahara African (SSA)-criteria. This study aims to assess MNM and associated factors in middle-income country Suriname by app…
Investigation of stillbirth causes in Suriname
Background Suriname has one of the highest stillbirth rates in Latin America and the Caribbean. To facilitate data comparison of perinatal deaths, the World Health Organization developed the International Classification of Diseases-10 Perinatal Mortality (ICD-PM).Objective We aimed to (1) assess characteristics and risk indicators of women with a stillbirth, (2) determine the timing and causes of stillbirths according to the ICD-PM with critical …
Evaluation of a treatment protocol for anaemia in pregnancy nested in routine antenatal care in a limited-resource setting
Background: Anaemia in pregnancy is typically due to iron deficiency (IDA) but remains a complex and pervasive problem, particularly in low resource settings. At clinics on the Myanmar–Thailand border, a protocol was developed to guide treatment by health workers in antenatal care (ANC).Objective: To evaluate the clinical use of a protocol to treat anaemia in pregnancy.Methods: The design was a descriptive retrospective analysis of antenatal data…
Women’s Experience of Facility-Based Childbirth Care and Receipt of an Early Postnatal Check for Herself and Her Newborn in Northwestern Tanzania
Negative experiences of care may act as a deterrent to current and/or future utilization of facility-based health services. To examine the situation in Tanzania, we conducted a sub-analysis of a cross-sectional household survey conducted in April 2016 in the Mara and Kagera regions of Tanzania. The sample included 732 women aged 15–49 years who had given birth in a health facility during the previous two years. Log binomial regression models were…
Obstetric ultrasound aids prompt referral of gestational trophoblastic disease in marginalized populations on the Thailand–Myanmar border
BACKGROUND: The use of obstetric ultrasound in the diagnosis of gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) in high-income settings is well established, leading to prompt management and high survival rates. Evidence from low-income settings suggests ultrasound is essential in identifying complicated pregnancies, but with limited studies reviewing specific conditions including GTD. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to review the role of ultrasound i…
Evaluation of a surgical service in the chronic phase of a refugee camp
A considerable burden of non-acute surgical morbidity exists in 'chronic' refugee situations. An in-house general surgical service is found to be cost-effective in relieving some of this burden and should be considered by policy makers as a viable intervention
