Identifying delays impacting maternal and perinatal deaths using a facility-based death audit review system integrated with community engagement
Background: Pakistan's persistently high maternal (178 per 100 000 livebirths) and neonatal (41 per 1000 livebirths) mortality ratios are compounded by lack of reliable data on the root causes and preventable risk factors, which hinders their effective use in improving care and progress toward safe, high-quality services. We sought to identify system delays impacting maternal and perinatal deaths using a facility-based death audit review system i…
Navigating Eros and Thanatos
This study aims to analyze Freudian life and death drives, commonly referred to as Eros and Thanatos, through the lens of systemic functional linguistics, particularly focusing on the interpersonal meaning-making process. The texts selected for this analysis are Virginia Woolf's suicide note and John Keats's last letter to his friend Charles Brown. These letters are significant as they were composed shortly before the authors' deaths—Woolf by sui…
Impact of integrating family planning with maternal and child health on uptake of contraception
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of integrating family planning with maternal and child health (FP-MCH) on the uptake of modern contraceptive methods (MCMs) and related health outcomes in two rural districts of Sindh, Pakistan using a quasi-experimental control before-after study design. Intervention package integrated FP with MCH in the existing public sector at facility and community levels. This included capacity building of health care…
A cross-sectional analysis of the impact of lady health worker visits in the prenatal and postnatal period on the uptake of continuum of care interventions and childhood mortality in Pakistan
Background: Community health workers are crucial in bridging the gap between health care facilities and the general population. In Pakistan, the lady health worker (LHW) program was launched in 1994 to enhance access to essential health care services. However, the overall quality of care provided by LHWs and its impact on population-level coverage of key maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) interventions and mortality remain insufficiently …
Predictors of voluntary uptake of modern contraceptive methods in rural Sindh, Pakistan
The use of modern contraceptive methods (MCMs) has been stagnant for the last decade in Pakistan. The second most populous province, Sindh reports 25% of MCMs use. Various factors including demographics and health services utilization are associated with the uptake of family planning services. This research aimed to identify and assess specific predictors of MCMs among women aged 15–49 in two districts of Sindh-Matiari and Badin. A cross-sectiona…
