• Facility Level Staff absenteeism & Frequent postings / transfers Gender and skill imbalances Urban -Rural disparities for availability of health professionals Lack of clearly defined referral mechanisms Inappropriate locations Poor maintenance of Health Facilities Insufficient funding and issues of supplies Management issues including supervision & monitoring Non availability of necessary equipment, medicines and
supplies
Community Level The most underserved pockets of population still not covered
by Lady Health Workers (60 % coverage) Insufficient availability of skilled birth attendants
About 48% of the deliveries being conducted by TBAs, Community Midwifery program recently introduced.
Currently 6000 CMWs trained but there are deployment issues
Low confidence in public health facilitiesSocio-cultural diversity coupled with low literacy and lack of
awareness resulting in inappropriate behaviors and practices related to maternal health
A) LOW SBA RATE
B) LOW LEVEL OF ANTENATAL COVERAGE
C) T.T IMMUNIZATION COVERAGE FOR PREGNANTS IS LOW
D) LOW CPR AND HIGH TFR
E) HIGH PREVELENCE OF ANEMIA
F) LOW REFERRAL RATES OF COMPLICATED CASES DURING ANTENATAL AND AT THE TIME OF DELIVERY
G) LOW PROPORTIONATE OF ASSISTED VAGINAL DELIVERY AND C-SECTION VS NORMAL DELIVERY IN HEALTH FACILITIES
H) HIGH INCIDENCE OF SEPTIC ABORTIONS
Care Before Pregnancy HTSP Family Planning Improved Nutrition
Care During Pregnancy• Maternal immunization for tetanus toxoid
• Nutritional support (including iron and folate supplementation)
• Birth planning including transportation
• Counseling on breast feeding
• Recognition of danger signs and treatment or referral as needed
• Where appropriate—
- Presumptive malaria treatment
- Syphilis screening and treatment
- Voluntary counseling and testing for HIV
Care During Childbirth
• Skilled birth attendance at delivery• Clean delivery: hand-washing, clean space, clean cord care
• Recognition of danger signs (for mother) and treatment or referral as needed
Continued & Routine Visits with a Trained Health Care Provider
Early postnatal visit Recognition of danger signs (e.g., fever)
for mother with treatment or referral as needed
Post partum family planning
WHO has made these recommendations for making maternal health a viable program area at the country level:
1. Specify specific goals for reduction in maternal mortality rates.
2. Write and adopt a national policy supporting a countrywide maternal health strategy.
3. Conduct advocacy among multiple partners at the highest levels to mobilize resources.
4. Adopt a country strategy providing options for programs in districts with different health infrastructures and mortality situations
5. Mainstream maternal health through coordination between maternal and child survival and other health areas, as well as cooperation with other sectors.
6. Develop partnerships among governments, NGOs, professional bodies, academia, and developmental partners at regional and country levels.
7. Establish universal registration of births and deaths. Reach consensus on key indicators for maternal health. (Use these data for supportive supervision within the health system.)
8. Include key indicators within national surveys and national health management information systems.
9. Strengthen maternal care capacity through systematic training, skills development, and logistics.
10.Conduct operations research to establish an evidence base for innovative programs
