  5. KEY FINDINGS OF BASELINE STUDY (2000) • Service Coverage (UN-Process Indicators) • Number of institutions studied - 83 • % of births in facilities - 10.89 (min.>15%) • % met need of EOC - 8% (min.100%) • % births by C-section - 0.6 (min.5-15%) • Average CFR - 1.4 (min 1%)

  6. STATUS OF HEALTH SYSTEM AT BASE LINE SURVEY IN 2000 • High vacancies of specialists OB/GY and anesthetist • PHCs not offering complete range of BEmOC • Very few CHCs prepared to address EmOC • Only 21.5% deliveries in institutions • Low utilization of services and confidence in PHCs • Delay in reaching institutions

  7. PROJECT FOCUS • Needs Based Differential Approach • IMPROVING ACCESS TO QUALITY SERVICES • Improved functional infrastructure • Provided necessary equipments and supplies • Skill based trainings - BEOC, IP Training • Development of management systems • INCREASE COMMUNITY AWARENESS • Advocacy Programs for PRIs, NGOs and Media. • Integrating Safe Motherhood messages into existing Community level activities.

WHY FOCUS ON BEmOC? • 80-85% obstetric complications do not need surgical interventions • Focus on BEmOC will reduce nearly 33-60% maternal deaths • Skills upgradation of service provider is feasible • Over dependence on OB & Gy specialist and anesthetist reduced • Reduces congestion at district and medical college hospitals

  10. INITIATING BEOC SERVICES • Government in consultation with UNFPA decided to train MOs in BEmOC • 2 weeks training at district hospital • 62 teams trained BEmOC • MOs gained confidence in handling cases and expressed interest • Skills upgraded on manual removal of Placenta, management of shock, judicious use of Oxytocine, stabilizing cases of APH & PPH and ensuring referral when essential • Promoted use of evidence based practices

  20. MOVING FROM PILOT TO SCALE • Logframe of new national RH programme draws on Rajasthan experience for strengthening EmOC services • Reduction in maternal morbidity and mortality is now a priority agenda of Rajasthan Government • UN process indicator confirmed as reliable and accessible indicators for public health systems to measure programme performance
