Levels and determinants of person-centred maternity care among women living in urban informal settlements
BACKGROUND: Sub-Saharan Africa's rapid urbanisation has led to the sprawling of urban informal settlements. The urban poorest women are more likely to experience worse health outcomes and poor treatment during childbirth. This study measures levels of person-centred maternity care (PCMC) and identifies determinants of PCMC among women living in urban informal settlements in Nairobi, Lusaka and Ouagadougou. METHODS: We conducted phone, home-based …
Assessing courtesy reporting bias in facility-based surveys on person-centred maternity care
Background: Experience of care is typically measured through client exit surveys administered in the facility. Evidence suggests that such measures suffer from courtesy reporting bias whereby respondents do not accurately report on their experiences while in the facility. We explored the presence of courtesy bias by comparing women's reported experience of person-centred maternity care (PCMC) from facility-based client exit surveys to mobile phon…
Availability and readiness of public health facilities to provide differentiated service delivery models for HIV treatment in Zambia
Background There is persistent pressure on countries with a high burden of HIV infection to reach desired targets for HIV treatment outcomes. This has led to moving from the “one-size-fits-all” model to differentiated service delivery (DSD) models, which are meant to be more patient-centered and efficient but without compromising on the quality of patient care. However, for DSD models to be efficient, facilities should have indicators of HIV serv…
Factors associated with the ability of adolescent girls and young women (Agyw) in sexual unions to negotiate for safer sex. An analysis of data from the 2018 Zambia Demographic and Health Survey (ZDHS…
The ability of AGYW to negotiate for safer sex is key in the fight against the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). We determined the prevalence of safer sex negotiation among AGYW in sexual unions aged 15–24 and its associated factors in Zambia. Of 1879 respondents, 78.0% (1466) had the ability to negotiate for safer sex (ANSS). While adjusting for other variables in the model, condom use at last sex with the most recent partner (AOR 4.08, 95% CI…
Trends and Inequalities in Maternal and Newborn Health Services for Unplanned Settlements of Lusaka City, Zambia
Living conditions and other factors in urban unplanned settlements present unique challenges for improving maternal and newborn health (MNH), yet MNH inequalities associated with such challenges are not well understood. This study examined trends and inequalities in coverage of MNH services in the last 20 years in unplanned and planned settlements of Lusaka City, Zambia. Geospatial information was used to map Lusaka's settlements and health facil…
Going deeper with health equity measurement
Multi-tier equity measures provided similarly plausible and precise estimates as conventional measures for most comparisons, except mortality among some wealth deciles, and wealth tertiles by province. This suggests that related research could readily use these multi-tier measures to gain deeper insights on inequality patterns for both health coverage and impact indicators, given sufficient samples. Future household survey analyses using fit-for-…
Health service utilisation during the Covid-19 pandemic in sub-Saharan Africa in 2020
INTRODUCTION: There are concerns about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the continuation of essential health services in sub-Saharan Africa. Through the Countdown to 2030 for Women's, Children's and Adolescents' Health country collaborations, analysts from country and global public health institutions and ministries of health assessed the trends in selected services for maternal, newborn and child health, general service utilisation. METHOD…
Interventions for Keeping Adolescent Girls in School in Low- and Middle-Income Countries
Background: Adolescent girls dropping out of school may lead to gender inequality, high illiteracy levels, single motherhood, unemployment, and many more undesirable outcomes that inhabit human capital development for girls. It is therefore important to put measures in place to support adolescent girls to stay in school. The objectives of the scoping review were to identify and describe the types of studies conducted to assess interventions for k…
