Levels of in-facility maternal mortality, obstetric complications and stillbirths in three urban referral hospitals in Guinea

Introduction/Context Men who have sex with men (MSM) continue to carry a disproportionate burden of HIV in West and Central Africa, where stigma, criminalization, and legal restrictions hinder access to essential prevention and treatment services.

Length-of-stay and factors associated with early discharge after birth in health facilities in Guinea by mode of birth
The immediate postpartum period (first 24 hours after birth) represents a critical time for women and newborns. Postnatal length-of-stay varies globally; in Guinea, a 24-hour facility stay following childbirth is recommended, with an emphasis on providing frequent monitoring of mother and newborn for the first 6 hours. This study describes postpartum length-of-stay following facility-based births in Guinea, and investigates factors associated wit…
Wealth-based inequality in the continuum of maternal health service utilisation in 16 sub-Saharan African countries
Addressing the coverage gap in maternal continuum of care in SSA using multidimensional and people-centred approaches remains a key strategy needed to realise the SDG3. The pro-rich wealth-based inequalities observed show that bespoke pro-poor or population-wide approaches are needed
Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of health providers regarding access to and use of contraceptive methods among adolescents and youth in urban Guinea
Positive attitudes and good practices toward the use of contraceptive services by adolescents and youth were found among providers. However, many health care providers still have unfavorable attitudes and practices toward delivering FP services to urban adolescents and youth. Therefore, future intervention programs should focus on training health care providers in youth- and adolescent-friendly reproductive health services and promoting contracep…
Determinants of facility-based childbirth among adolescents and young women in Guinea
Introduction Maternal mortality remains very high in Sub-Saharan African countries and the risk is higher among adolescent girls. Maternal mortality occurs in these settings mainly around the time of childbirth and the first 24 hours after birth. Therefore, skilled attendance in an enabling environment is essential to reduce the occurrence of adverse outcomes for both women and their children. This study aims to analyze the determinants of facili…
