The aim of this intervention is to improve the quality of care for institutional births with a special focus on improving the quality of Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (EmONC). This intervention will focus on improving the skills and practices of providers and through the improvement of referral networks, ensure timely and appropriate management of complications.
The specific objectives include:
1. Evaluate the effectiveness of an FRU-level Basic and EmONC Skills and Drills intervention combined with the existing primary health centre (PHC) based nurse mentoring intervention in improving appropriate diagnosis and management of obstetric and perinatal complications.
2. Assess the additional benefit of the EmONC Skills and drills intervention at FRUs in terms of improvement of obstetric and perinatal outcomes compared to the PHC-level intervention alone.
3. Estimate the appropriateness and effectiveness of referrals in intervention facilities compared to controls.
4. Calculate the incremental cost and cost-effectiveness of the EmONC skills and drills intervention
