High-quality respectful care around the time of childbirth is a fundamental aspect of human rights and, according to recent global estimates, could prevent more than 100,000 maternal deaths and 1.3 million neonatal deaths annually. Despite some maternal and newborn health indicators in high-income countries being better in comparison to low-income and middle-income countries, existing evidence shows that improvements are needed in the quality of care provided to women and newborns in every country. In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) developed a framework and a list of Standards for improving the quality of maternal and newborn care (QMNC). The WHO Standards define a set of 318 Quality Measures, divided into three key domains - experience of care, provision of care and availability of resources - which can be used to assess the QMNC at facility level. The ongoing project, named IMAgiNE (Improving MAternal Newborn carE), includes all maternities hospitals of the FVG Region and aimed at improving the quality of maternal and neonatal health care in the region. Quality of care is assessed using two complementary perspectives (women and health workers), with two validated questionnaires including about 100 quality measures based on the WHO Standards. It provides data on both the baseline assessment and the Quality Improvement component (progresses made).
The aim of the study is to determine the state anxiety levels of the pregnant women who were given and not given information about the fetus with USG images during the detailed ultrasound (USG) and to compare them in both groups. This research is in the design of pre-test-post-test applied and randomized controlled research. Dependent variables: State anxiety levels Independent variables: Being informed during ultrasound Control variables: Socio-demographic variables and obstetric variables.
Objective: Migration status is one of the most important factors affecting perinatal mental health. National and international organizations emphasize the need to improve perinatal mental health. This research was planned as a pretest-posttest control group experimental model in order to determine the effect of midwifery education based on Pender's Health Promotion Model on the perinatal mental health of migrant women under the leadership of midwives. Materials and Methods: The population of this study, which will be conducted in randomized controlled experimental type, will be Syrian immigrant pregnant women living in Seyhan district. The number of samples will be calculated by G*power analysis, and 52 participants in the experimental group and 52 participants in the control group will be included. Single-blind random assignment and block randomization will be used to avoid selection bias. The research will be conducted in the form of pre-test and post-test. The pre-test will be applied during the pregnancy period before the education and the post-test will be applied in the postpartum period after the education. 3 modules of training on perinatal mental health will be given to the experimental group in order to eliminate the lack of knowledge of women and to raise awareness. The control group will be left to routine clinical care. Data; Introductory Information Form, Perinatal Mental Health Education Evaluation Form, Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale and Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale will be collected. Statistical Program for Social Science 22 will be used in data analysis. The independent variable of the research is perinatal mental health education based on Pender's Health Promotion Model. The dependent variable is the introductory characteristics of women, questions about perinatal mental health education, anxiety and depression levels. The data will be analyzed with appropriate analysis methods after performing normality tests.
This is a multicenter, prospective, investigational device study designed to evaluate: The safety, feasibility, and accuracy of the device, when used by pregnant individuals
In 2015, the average Ethiopian woman had a 1 in 64 lifetime risk of death due to complications of childbirth and 87,414 newborns died before their 28th day of life. Demand for MNCH services, however, remains low in Ethiopia's rural communities most at risk with only 16% of women delivering in a health facility. The investigator's project responds to the challenge of creating demand for existing MNCH services in rural Ethiopia, which fell short of reaching Millennium Development Goal targets for reducing preventable maternal and neonatal deaths. This study addresses two strategic drivers to prevent maternal mortality identified by USAID including improving individual, household, and community behaviors and norms and increasing equity of access and use of services by the most vulnerable. The primary objective of the study is to determine the impact of a behavior change intervention that partners Ethiopian Orthodox priests with members of the Health Development Army (HDA) and trains them to conduct maternal health outreach to increase births attended by skilled health personnel among women who attend ≥1 ANC visits.
Perinatal outcomes in the US rank behind most other developed countries even though women in the US utilize more maternity services. Current approaches to consultation and collaboration among perinatal care providers, including nurse-midwives, obstetricians, and perinatologists, fragment care resulting in communication errors and maternal dissatisfaction. The CARE study will test an innovative interdisciplinary consult visit to improve communication, teamwork, maternal satisfaction, and perinatal outcomes.
Researchers suggest that the protection of the cycles of sleep is essential for neurodevelopment, learning, memory and preservation of brain plasticity to the individual's life. Recent research shows that technical bath promote reduction of crying, anxiety and improves the behavior of newborns.
