We discovered new ways of learning’
BACKGROUND: Children with disabilities face many barriers to early childhood development services and to pre-primary education. Evidence on inclusive school readiness and community-based approaches in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) still remains limited. OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility and acceptability of a co-designed training programme for caregivers to support school readiness among children aged 4-6 years in Bangladesh, Nepal…
Association between national action and trends in antibiotic resistance
The world’s governments have agreed on actions to address the challenge of antibiotic resistance. This raises the question of what level of national action is associated with improved outcomes, including both slower growth and lower levels of antibiotic resistance. Answering this question is challenged by variation in data availability and quality as well as disruptive events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. We investigate the association between l…
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…
Effect of the Covid-19 pandemic response on intrapartum care, stillbirth, and neonatal mortality outcomes in Nepal
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic response is affecting maternal and neonatal health services all over the world. We aimed to assess the number of institutional births, their outcomes (institutional stillbirth and neonatal mortality rate), and quality of intrapartum care before and during the national COVID-19 lockdown in Nepal. METHODS: In this prospective observational study, we collected participant-level data for pregnant women enrolled in th…
Equity improvements in maternal and newborn care indicators
Community-based maternal and newborn care interventions have been shown to improve neonatal survival and other key health indicators. It is important to evaluate whether the improvement in health indicators is accompanied by a parallel increase in the equitable distribution of the intervention activities, and the uptake of healthy newborn care practices. We present an analysis of equity improvements after the implementation of a Community Based N…
Newborn survival in Nepal
Nepal is on target to meet the Millennium Development Goals for maternal and child health despite high levels of poverty, poor infrastructure, difficult terrain and recent conflict. Each year, nearly 35,000 Nepali children die before their fifth birthday, with almost two-thirds of these deaths occurring in the first month of life, the neonatal period. As part of a multi-country analysis, we examined changes for newborn survival between 2000 and 2…
