▼ Introduction: Health information systems provide information obtained from data for decision making in order to improve the performance of a health system. Although health information systems can be very influential, it can not be exit on its own. It is discussed that the flaw and inefficiency of health information system is rooted to the powerlessness of health system and lack of incorporation in the overall health system [1]. The benefits of using data in planning and implementation go beyond the normal everyday functions of a heath system and include catastrophic situations. Iran is a developing country which experiences a large number of natural disasters each year with a significant number of casualties. Owing to the importance of data for planning, implementation and evaluation, the necessity for sound data is even more pronounced in a country with such conditions. The main aim of this project is to use the city of Bam as a case study to explore the routinely collected data systems in Iran. This investigated the collection of mortality data from all causes, and maternal mortality specifically, in order to determine the usefulness and application of these data systems to monitor the immediate and ongoing health effects of a natural disaster, and to plan for future disasters. Methods: A mixed qualitative and quantitative method used to provide better understanding of the problem at two main data sources, the Medical University and the Civil Registry. This research has commenced with numeric results of maternal ratios and then has employed a qualitative method to gain better understanding of data collection system. The sampling methods are purposive and probability sampling. Interviews, review of documents, and personal observation are the main data collection methods. The data are analysed using qualitative and quantitative methods. They are presented in four sub –chapters , three sub-chapters for non numeric results and one for numeric results. Results: The results show that there are dramatic differences on data collection and data processing between the Civil Registry and the Medical Sciences University. Also it is found that there are some sorts of shortcomings in different stages of data collection system in each organisation. This includes incomplete data coverage, shortcoming in academic staff, insufficient technology infrastructures, lack of training for staff, inadequate data quality checking. Moreover, there are many limitations affecting data collection after the earthquake. These limitations are rooted in basic problems within the existing data collection system and a lack of co-ordination between the groups collecting the data, including national and international aid groups that provided help after the earthquake. Regarding maternal mortality data collection it is found that there was no consistent definition of maternal deaths among interviewees. All data sources are not aware of urgently reporting of maternal deaths as it should be. The results of the estimation of maternal mortality ratios from… Advisors/Committee Members: Forbes, John, Warner, Pam, Pollack, Allyson.

▼ The levels of under-five mortality are disproportionately high in the developing world compared with those in the developed world. Several factors are responsible for this, and even though efforts have been made to address the problem, these needless deaths still occur. Sadly, children under age five tend to bear the brunt of these high death rates. This study seeks to examine the effect of maternal migration on under-five mortality in the Kassena-Nankana Municipality and Kassena-Nankana West District of northern Ghana. The study area is predominantly rural and agriculture is the mainstay of the people. Poverty is pervasive due to the generally low agricultural outputs and limited economic opportunities. As a result, seasonal migration has been one of the main livelihood strategies, where the people move to other places in the country in search of jobs. The study thus seeks to compare under-five mortality levels between children of migrant mothers and non-migrant mothers in the study area. Data from the Navrongo Health and Demographic Surveillance System (HDSS) in northern Ghana were used for the study. The HDSS has been operating since 1993 and uses fieldworkers who visit households periodically to collect health and demographic data. Specific data that are collected include pregnancies, births, deaths, in- and out migrations, household characteristics and assets, educational status of all individuals age six years and over, marital status and vaccination status of all children who are at most 3 years. The outcome (dependent) variable in the analysis was the survival status of the children (dead or alive). The main independent variable for the study was migration status of the mother, which was categorised into two main groups of migrants (return migrants) and non-migrants. The return migrants were further categorised into three groups according to their duration of stay before returning to place of origin (study area). Other independent variables were age of mother at time of birth of child, educational status of the mother, household socioeconomic status, birth order of children, place of delivery of children, number of children born from a single pregnancy (multiple or single birth) and presence or absence of grandmother in the household. In all, 20,990 children who were born between 2000 and 2014 were used for the analysis. Out of this number, 1,854 (8.8%) died before attaining age five years. Proportional Hazard Model, with a Weibull distribution, was used to examine the effect of the independent variables on the survival outcomes of the children. The results showed decline in neonatal, infant and under-five mortality in the study area over the years. However, neonatal mortality increased between 2013 and 2014, while infant mortality also increased marginally within the same period. The results also revealed that households of female return migrants (irrespective of duration) have a higher socioeconomic status than households of…

▼ Maternal health outcomes are among the most diverse human indicators of development as well as critical global indicators of socioeconomic standing of a country. While many studies have over the years identified risk factors associated with the occurrence of adverse maternal health outcomes, such studies have tended to be relatively proximal and individually-based. Using the Ghana Maternal Health Survey data in a multilevel modelling design, this study examined the relationship between the socioeconomic status of the area within which women live and the occurrence of maternal mortality, stillbirth, miscarriage and abortion as prime indicators of maternal health. The aim is to understand how, independent of individual level factors, maternal health is affected by the characteristics of the areas within which women live and work. The study used the 2000 Population and Housing Census data to construct a composite index of multiple deprivation to reflect the socioeconomic structure of women’s immediate environment. The quantitative analysis was triangulated with qualitative interviews to contextualise the discussions. The results showed that women living in deprived areas have higher odds of maternal death compared to women living in less deprived areas. The level of deprivation further suppresses the expected positive effect of educational attainment measured at the individual level, indicating that individual level educational qualification is not protective of maternal mortality in a deprived area. The effect of the deprivation status however reduces in areas where the aggregate proportion of females educated up to Senior High School level or higher s high. This means that policies that will provide and ensure educational attainment up to the Senior High School level for women will be crucial in reducing the risk of maternal mortality. The incidence rate of maternal mortality is also lower in neighbourhoods where coverage of supervised deliveries is higher. Women who live in less deprived neighbourhoods however have a higher likelihood of seeking abortion compared with women in deprived neighbourhoods. Less deprived neighbourhoods are also associated with high odds of suffering miscarriage but lower odds of stillbirth. Controlling for a variety of individual characteristics the results further showed that it is women of middle or wealthy households living in less deprived neighbourhoods who are mostly likely to seek abortion, whilst women of poor households living in less deprived neighbourhood have higher probabilities of reporting miscarriages. These results setup two important agendas that concern development policy and research. The resulting policy recommendation from the work is that, an expansion of educational opportunities that enable more women to obtain school education up to the Senior High School level and higher will be significant in reducing maternal mortality in Ghana. In terms of research agenda, the findings strengthen the need to broaden the scope of maternal health… Advisors/Committee Members: Osei-Akoto, I (advisor), Owusu, A.Y (advisor), Ahiadeke, C (advisor).

▼ Background: Maternal mortality is unacceptably high. Most maternal deaths are avoidable, as the health-care solutions to prevent or manage complications are well known. An important component of efforts to reduce health risks to mothers and children is increasing the proportion of babies that are delivered in health facilities. Ethiopia has one of the highest home delivery practices, as the 2011 EDHS report shows home delivery prevalence was 90%. To improve maternal health, barriers that limit utilization and access to delivery services must be identified and addressed. Objectives: The objective of the study is to asses factors associated with institutional delivery among mothers in the Butajera Demographic and Surveillance System. Method: A community based case control study supplemented with a qualitative study was conducted to identify factors associated with utilization of institutional delivery. The study was done using the Butajera demographic surveillance system. Women who have given birth in health institution in the past one year was considered as Cases while the controls were women who have given birth at home in the past one year. The quantitative data was collected using a pre-tested and structured questionnaire and four FGDs and four in-depth interviews were done using interview guide. To assess the association, bivariate analysis was done. All independent variables with p-value less than 0.05 were included in the final multivariate logistic regression model. Result: The final multivariate regression model has shown that the main determinant factors of utilization institutional delivery service are age of mother, residence at the time of delivery, place of previous deliveries, decision maker about place of delivery and history of health problem during last delivery. While being young in age and history of health problem increased utilization of IDS, residing in rural area was found to be preventive of utilization of IDS. In addition both mothers who have all their deliveries in health institution and those who have all their deliveries in their home will follow the same pattern as their previous experience. The qualitative part of this study has shown that mothers are not convinced about the services and the health professionals in health institutions. Conclusion: In conclusion, mothers in urban areas, who never used IDS and older at age were found less probable to use IDS, hence due attention should be given to this group of women to improve utilization. The government and health professionals should educate mothers and advocate delivery service in order to change the outlook of the community towards IDS.

▼ Background: It is known that significant reduction in maternal mortality cannot be attained without an effective and efficient referral system. Maternal mortality in the Northern Region remains high with the Tamale Metropolis alone recording 76 out of 133 deaths in 2016. Anecdotal evidence in the region suggests that majority of referred maternal patients do not comply promptly with referral recommendation especially during non-emergency referrals. This could be a contributory factor to the high institutional maternal deaths recorded in the region. Objective: the objective of this study was to determine the factors influencing the timing of compliance with non-emergency obstetric referrals at the Tamale Teaching Hospital. Methods: The study was conducted at the Tamale Teaching Hospital Obstetrics Unit from 4th June to 14th June 2018. It was an analytical cross sectional quantitative study. The data were obtained from 213 participants who were recruited through simple random sampling. They were interviewed using a data extraction tool adapted and modified from the WHO rapid assessment of referral care systems. Descriptive statistics, bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed at 95% confidence interval and the results presented in tables and charts. Results: The study found that about one in five (22.1%) of pregnant women do not comply early with non-emergency referrals to the Tamale Teaching Hospital. Age, marital status, health insurance status, severity of condition, journey time and road network were significant factors found to influence the timing of compliance. Conclusions: The study concluded that there was late referral compliance among some pregnant women in non-emergency situations. Hypertensive disorders, previous caesarean section and anaemia in pregnancy were the leading conditions that necessitated referrals. Age, marital status, health insurance status, severity of condition, journey time and road network predicted timing of compliance with non-emergency obstetric referrals at the Tamale Teaching Hospital and therefore recommended the need for the coordination of referral processes within the region and patient education through community participation.

▼ This study is aimed at investigating the influence of the socio-demographic determinants on maternal mortality in Zambia drawing from an analysis of 2002 and 2007 demographic health survey data. A logistic regression was applied on both the 2002 and 2007 Zambia Demographic Health Survey data. The binary logistic regression was used to estimate the woman dying while pregnant, during delivery or within two months after child birth. In this study the independent variable was explained by the odds ratios of the explanatory variables. The dependent variable wasdenoted by the number(1) one if a woman died of the pregnancy related death and (0) zero if otherwise. Findings from the study indicate higher risks of dying from maternal mortality amongst adolescent mother in rural areas and outside marital unions. This is particularly evident from 2002 ZDHS for adolescent mothers in Eastern and Northern provinces. Adolescent mothers from Eastern and Northern provinces were 1.6 and 1.4 respectively at higher risk of dying from pregnancy related causes compared to women aged 44-49 years from Lusaka, the reference province. The observed early maternal mortality among adolescents outside marital unions was not significantly different in 2007 ZDHS,although there were more provinces experiencing this pattern, with education and religion of the mother having some influence on overall deaths. Mothers with no education were at 1.5 higher risk of dying compared to mothers with higher levels of education, the reference group. It is therefore, evident from both 2002 and 2007 ZDHS that pre-marital fertility especially in rural areas of Zambia and amongst women with no education is having significant influence on maternal mortality. In order to overcome this challenge, there is need to target young adolescent mothers for comprehensive health care interventions supported by measures to keep adolescents longer in schools. Even though previous surveys have had challenges in investigating factors associated with maternal mortality due to inadequate numbers resulting from maternal deaths, this study shows that the ZDHS data has great potential in explaining the factors associated with maternal mortality when the logistic regression is applied on such survey data. However, the ideal framework for investigating determinants of maternal mortality as proxy for maternal mortality should be supported by including data on biomedical variables that are otherwise unavailable from the Zambia Demographic Health Survey data.

▼ Maternal Mortality Ratios (MMRs) in poor countries have been identified as a critical priority for development policy and intervention. MMRs in Uganda, specifically, remain extremely high at 440 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. The delay in arriving at a health facility for care has been acknowledged as a leading non-clinical factor in maternal mortality, and a growing body of evidence suggests that inadequate transport is a significant factor in explaining maternal deaths. Despite this, emergency transport, the efficacy of referral systems, and barriers to mobility continue to remain largely neglected within the study of maternal health. This research study primarily intends to describe, in detail, the subjective experiences of women who require and seek emergency obstetric care and to illuminate what specific factors contribute to transport-related delays. This research took place predominantly in Wakiso District, Uganda. Surveys and interviews were conducted at health centers located in Kabubbu, Kasangati and Buwambo, all within a 22 km radius of Uganda’s capital city Kampala. A combination of quantitative and qualitative methods was used; 47 in-depth interviews were conducted. This is inclusive of interviews conducted with health center patients, health workers and health administrators. A total of 182 health center patients completed surveys. The results of the study reveal that gendered norms and practices significantly influence women’s mobility in this context. While the relative inaccessibility of health centers, the limited availability of transport methods, and the expensive nature of emergency transport are all factors contributing to mobility limitations, interviews suggest that within the population studied, gendered norms governing the management and control of resources for mobility contribute most significantly to mobility constraints. Male partners (who are often the sole wage earners) frequently manage family finances and control women’s daily access to spending money. If women experience an obstetric emergency, they rarely are in possession of an adequate amount of money to pay for appropriate or safe transport. Transport-related interventions can empower women socially and economically, thereby contributing to the reduction of maternal deaths and the improvement of maternal life.

▼ Pregnancy-related poor maternal health and maternal death remain major problems in most Nigerian states including Cross River State. The acute impact of these problems is borne more heavily by rural communities where the majority of births take place at home unassisted or assisted by unskilled persons. These problems are due to a mixture of problem recognition and decision-making during obstetric emergencies leading to delayed actions. Every pregnancy faces risk, and prenatal screening cannot detect which pregnancy will develop complications. If the goal of reducing maternal morbidity/mortality is to be achieved, increasing the number of women receiving care from a skilled provider (doctor/nurse/midwife) during pregnancy, delivery, and post-delivery and prompt adequate care for obstetric complications has been identified as the single most important intervention. One of the strategies identified in many countries is engaging and working with individuals, families, and communities as partners to improve the quality of maternal healthcare. This strategy is thought to remove the barriers that dissuade women from using the services that are available, empowering the community members to increase their influence and control of maternal health, promote ownership and sustenance, as well as increase access to skilled care. The aim of the study: The overall aim of this PhD study was to develop a model of community engagement to facilitate the prevention of maternal health complications in the rural areas of Cross River State, Nigeria. To develop this model, the study specifically sought to: 1. Understand the current situation in Cross River State by exploring the knowledge gap of women of child-bearing age (pregnant and new mothers) regarding obstetric danger signs, birth preparedness and complication readiness, delivery practices of women, the action of family/community members, and the role of community-based maternal health initiatives, if any, in emergencies, as well as explore participants’ opinions on actions to be taken by the community to promote the utilisation of orthodox healthcare facilities by rural women of Cross River State (Phase 1). 2. Engage community members through a participatory approach (Photovoice) to highlight problems regarding pregnancy and birth practices, identify possible solutions, and make recommendations on communities’ roles in the prevention of maternal health complications (Phase 2). The older women of the study communities were also engaged to verify and validate the findings from phases 1 & 2 analyses. 3. Develop a model of community engagement to improve maternal health literacy by increasing knowledge on early detection of obstetric complications, birth preparedness, complication readiness, and improved access to skilled birth attendance (Phase 3). Methods: The study was conducted using a qualitative descriptive research approach that combined qualitative semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions within the Photovoice participatory approach. Purposive sampling was employed… Advisors/Committee Members: Chipps, Jennifer (advisor).

▼ This study considers the reproductive experiences of women in Sheffield between 1870 and 1939, encompassing the development of concepts of maternal and infant welfare, and debates over birth control and abortion. It focuses on the impact of state and voluntary enterprise, on the development of health professions and hospitals, and on the position of mothers. The study shows that high infant mortality was caused primarily by poor sanitation. Unlike other areas, Sheffield had low rates of both maternal employment and bottle feeding, suggesting that these were not significant factors. The decline in infant mortality was due to a combination of factors; the removal of privy middens and slum areas, and the development of welfare clinics and health visiting services. High maternal mortality was prevalent mainly in areas of skilled working class employment; not middle class areas as in other cities. There was no inverse correlation between infant and maternal mortality in Sheffield. Maternal mortality was caused by high rates of sepsis following illegal abortion. The reduction in mortality was due to a cyclical decline in the virulence of the causative bacteria, and the application of sulphonamide drugs to control it. The development of antenatal and birth control clinics had little impact. Despite early action to train midwives in Sheffield, midwifery remained a largely part time, low status occupation throughout the period. The hospitalisation of normal childbirth occurred early in Sheffield, and demand for beds outstripped supply, demonstrating that women were able to shape the development of services. Local authority and voluntary groups generally co-operated in the delivery of services, which were developed along pragmatic lines with little reference to debates about eugenics or national deterioration. The growth of welfare schemes was circumscribed by the available resources. Central government provided enabling legislation, but schemes were planned and implemented at the local level.

▼ Background: Daily activities within a health care organization are mediated by information communication processes (ICP), which involve multiple health care professionals. During pregnancy, birth and motherhood a woman may encounter different professionals including midwives, doctors, laboratory personnel and others. Effective management requires critical information to be accurately communicated. If there is a breakdown in this communication patient safety is at risk for various reasons such as; inadequate critical information, misconception of information and uninformed decisions being made. Method: Multi method, multiple case study approach was used to explore and describe the complexities involved in the (ICP), during the management of the intrapartum period. During the study the expected ICP, the actual ICP, the challenges involved and the desired ICP were analysed. 24 In-depth interviews with skilled birth attendants were conducted, observer- as- participant role was utilized during the observation, fild notes, reflective diaries and document review methods were used to gather the data. Thematic analysis and activity analysis were applied to analyse the data. Findings: The findings illuminated that there are expectations of accessibility to care of the woman during pregnancy birth and the intrapartum, especially linked to referral processes. The actual ICP focused on documentation and communication of the information within and between organizations. Communication was marked by inadequate documentation and therefore errors in the information communicated. The desires for communication were illuminated by the need to change the current situation. Further a framework for effective information communication was developed: the FAAS framework for the effective management of the intrapartum period. Conclusion: In conclusion what is expected is not what is actually happening. The skilled birth attendants (SBAs) do not necessarily have the answers for change but the challenges were identified as desires for change. I urge that the framework will provide a basis for the evaluation of the effectiveness involved in the ICP for the effective management of the intrapartum period.
