Official title:
Effectiveness of an Integrated Community-based Intervention Package in Improving Maternal, and Neonatal Health Outcome in Jimma Zone, Southwest Ethiopia: a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial
This study aims to improve maternal, neonatal and infant health outcomes through an integrated community-based intervention package in Jimma Zone, Southwest Ethiopia.
Background: Maternal, newborn, infant's morbidity and mortality are unacceptably high in sub-Saharan Africa including Ethiopia. Despite considerable efforts made in maternal and child health care, poor maternal, neonatal and child health problems remained a significant public health concern globally and particularly in low and middle-income countries. Community-based Interventions and strategies for improving maternal, newborn, and child health care have been recommended through a continuum of care approach. However, few efforts have been made to identify synergies and integrate different intervention packages across the country. Objective: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of an integrated community-based intervention package in improving maternal, neonatal and infant health outcomes in Jimma Zone, Southwest Ethiopia: a cluster randomized controlled trial. Methods: This is a parallel-arm, single-blind, cluster randomized controlled trial conducted in the Dedo and Seka Chekorsa districts of the Jimma zone. After excluding 10 kebeles from each district to be considered as a buffer zone, we will assign 26 kebeles to the intervention arm and 26 to the control arm. A total of 624 pregnant women in their third trimester who reside in the kebeles assigned to the intervention clusters will be identified and enrolled (312 in intervention and 312 in control groups). The intervention includes Behavioral Change Communication, and male involvement. Various multidisciplinary professionals and experts regularly monitor the overall process of the research and intervention activities. The effect of the intervention in comparison with the routine care will be assessed by fitting mixed-effects linear regression models for the continuous outcomes and mixed-effects linear probability models for the binary outcomes. In all analyses, adjustment will be made for clustering at the kebele level and covariate. All tests will be two-sided and the level of significance will be set at alpha < 0.05. Budget: A total of 579,888.4ETB will be required. Key words: community-based intervention, maternal, neonatal, infant, health outcome, randomized controlled trial ;
