Transdisciplinary Imagination
Open AccessSaraswathi Vedam, Laurie Zephyrin et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Health Journal2022
Inequities in birth outcomes are linked to experiential and environmental exposures. There have been expanding and intersecting wicked problems of inequity, racism, and quality gaps in childbearing care during the pandemic. We describe how an intentional transdisciplinary process led to development of a novel knowledge exchange vehicle that can improve health equity in perinatal services. We introduce the Quality Perinatal Services Hub, an open a…
The effectiveness of training in emergency obstetric care
Open AccessCharles Ameh, Mselenge Mdegela et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2019
Providing quality emergency obstetric care (EmOC) reduces the risk of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity. There is evidence that over 50% of maternal health programmes that result in improving access to EmOC and reduce maternal mortality have an EmOC training component. The objective was to review the evidence for the effectiveness of training in EmOC. Eleven databases and websites were searched for publications describing EmOC training…

Assumptions and methods in the Lives Saved Tool (LiST)
Open AccessMonica Fox, Monica J Fox et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2011
The Lives Saved Tool (LiST) is a computer-based model that estimates the impact of increasing coverage of interventions on maternal, neonatal and child mortality. The model has its origins in earlier work from the Lancet Series papers that looked at estimating the impact of increasing coverage of proven interventions on child mortality [1] and neonatal mortality [2] as well as the impact of interventions related to nutrition and nutritional statu…

Developing Standards for Postpartum Hemorrhage in a Resource-Limited Country
Eugene Jusine Kongnyuy, Nynke van den BroekARTICLEHealth Care For Women International2009
Traditionally, standards of care have been developed by a panel of experts and then implemented by a multidisciplinary team. We studied the feasibility of involving health professionals of all grades and policymakers in the establishment of standards for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in Malawi. The team established these standards using evidence from Malawi national guidelines and World Health Organization (WHO) manuals. They agreed on 10 objective…

Obstetrical interventions and health centre coverage
Open AccessWim Van Lerberghe, KA Pangu et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning1988Cited by: 3
In this paper a spatial analysis of routine utilization data is used as a cheap and sensitive contribution to the overall evaluation of the health care delivery system. Routine data on major surgical interventions for complicated labour in a rural area in Eastern Zaire are analysed. Distance decay of intervention rates is marked for the rural population, but less so for areas covered by the health centre network. A coefficient of localization is …
