Summary
Haemorrhage continues to be a major cause of death of mothers giving birth in sub-Saharan Africa, including in Tanzania and Uganda. Many effective interventions are available to prevent and treat post-partum haemorrhage. However, training and skills of health providers attending births remain insufficient. The study aims to assess the impact of a 1-day competency-based training ¿Helping Mothers Survive: Bleeding after Birth¿ on morbidity due to post-partum haemorrhage.The study will use a cluster randomized two-arm trial to assess changes in severe morbidity (near-miss) due to post-partum haemorrhage. The study will include 18-20 clusters (health districts) which are randomized to either receiving or not receiving the training in each of the two intervention countries, Tanzania and Uganda using restricted randomization. We will use an adapted version of the WHO near-miss classification to estimate severe morbidity due to haemorrhage. The study aims to inform policy makers on the usefulness of scaling up this training module in low-resource settings.
