Baseline Survey for a Quality of Care Study in Sindh, Pakistan

Description

Data based on observation of MNH care provision in actual clinical settings has not been available for Pakistan. This study presents data from the first observation of labor, childbirth and immediate newborn care in a clinical setting in Pakistan. The study was conducted in Sindh, the second most populous province of Pakistan. Trained midwives observed 310 births at district level referral facilities and primary health care facilities in 10 districts of Sindh where the USAID-funded Maternal Child Health Integrated Program (MCHIP) was implemented. Results of this study are published by Agha et al, "Quality of Labor and Birth Care in Sindh Province, Pakistan: Findings from Direct Observations at Health Facilities".
