Detaljert beskrivelse
Abstract Hypothesis A safe delivery smartphone application distributed to health workers in Ethiopia will decrease perinatal mortality and the incidence of postpartum haemorrhage
A safe delivery smartphone application distributed to health workers in Ethiopia will increase health workers knowledge and skills in intra-partum management of active management of third stage labour 2) treatment of post-partum haemorrhage 3) manual removal of placenta and 4) neonatal resuscitation
Intervention A safe delivery smartphone application with animated videos to improve clinical management during delivery will be introduced in the intervention clusters
Design Cluster randomized controlled trial with health facilities as the unit of randomization
Area Nole Kaba, Haru, Homa, Genji and Gimbie districts in Ethiopia
Population Pregnant women and their newborns delivered in a randomized health facility. For secondary outcomes health workers at randomized health facilities.
Sample size 77 health facilities with minimum 2 health workers per facility and 30 deliveries per health worker
Duration Pregnant women will be enrolled at delivery and followed to 7 days postpartum
Outcomes Primary outcomes are perinatal mortality and postpartum haemorrhage. Secondary outcomes are health workers knowledge and skills
Study time Data collection expected from September 2013 to September 2014

Eksperimentell: Safe Delivery Smartphone Application
The safe delivery smartphone application is designed to train midwives and other birth attendants in developing countries in management of normal and complicated deliveries.
The safe delivery smartphone application will be introduced to health workers in the intervention clusters.
|
The safe delivery smartphone application is designed to train midwives and other birth attendants in developing countries in management of normal and complicated deliveries.
The application is furthermore intended as a reference tool that could be used during clinical work for example for preparation before attending a birth, in a situation when a complication occurs, or for debriefing and self-evaluation after a complication.
The application features four animated videos with clinical instructions of 3-8 minutes duration and written lists of essential obstetric drugs (indications, contraindications, dosage and administration and side effects) and essential equipment for a safe delivery.
