Barriers to proper maternal referral system in selected health facilities in Eastern Ethiopia: a qualitative study.

Barriers to proper maternal referral system in selected health facilities in Eastern Ethiopia: a qualitative study.

Fuente:Bmc Health Services Research

Extracto: The maternal referral system is overwhelmingly affected by lack of skill, logistics (referral form), misuse of available ambulance, poor communication, and limited seeking of feedback. Regular consultative meeting with relevant stakeholders and uptake of feedback are crucial to improve referral communication, proper use of ambulance and building capacity of health workforce about referral are essential to improve maternal referral system.

Extracto: The CSES-P can be considered as a potentially valid and reliable tool to assess contraceptive self-efficacy among Persian-speaking women. The CSES-P is a general instrument to measure overall contraceptive self-efficacy of the Iranian reproductive age women and it would also be fascinating to work on method specific self-efficacy tools in future.

Low birth weight, household socio-economic status, water and sanitation are associated with stunting and wasting among children aged 6-23 months: Results from a national survey in Ghana.

Fuente:Plos One

Extracto: Our findings suggest that aside from the pre-natal period, in certain contexts, household factors such as low socio-economic status and poor water and sanitation, may be stronger predictors of undernutrition. A combination of nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions including the pre-natal period to simultaneously address the multiple determinants of undernutrition need strengthening.

Regarding the associated factors unwanted pregnancy, hyperemesis gravidarum, having depressive and anxiety symptoms, experiencing intimate partner violence, and stress were significantly associated with suicidal ideation. Thus, giving awareness and early screening and interferences for antenatal suicide should be warranted.
