Kenya has made gains to reduce their maternal mortality ratio of 400 per 100,000 live births and under 5 mortality rate of 71 per 1,000 live births. Human resources continue to be a challenge for the Kenyan Health System. As part of the Medical Education Partnership Initiative (MEPI), Maternal and Child Health (MNCH) Linked Award, the University of Nairobi (UON) has worked to improve human resources for MNCH by providing opportunities and support for postgraduate level research and for training healthcare professionals at eight Kenyan health centers. This is a secondary analysis of a rapid assessment of 28 key informant interviews and six focus group discussions at six of the MNCH sites with hospital administrators and clinical staff. From 2011 to 2013, there have been 71 research projects by postgraduates in obstetrics and gynecology and pediatrics at five of the eight health facilities around Kenya. Continuing medical education (CME) for healthcare professionals consists of PRONTO trainings in emergency obstetrics and newborn resuscitation simulation as well as in short course series in program management, implementation science, and MNCH policy and clinical management. Interviewees asked about both the research and CME activities reported that these interventions helped improve work environment, policy, and practice and increased quality of care at their sites. Postgraduate student presence helped reduce the patient to provider ratio and provided locally relevant implementation research to improve MNCH care. Sustainability of this program relies on continued support for research and adoption of materials from the short courses to ongoing site supported CME.

Determinants Of Maternal Perceptions Of Child Health In The Informal Urban Settlement Of Kibera In Nairobi Kenya written by Jane Drengson and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013 with categories.

As populations in informal urban settlements continue to grow, an increasing number of people are exposed to unsafe living conditions. Children are particularly vulnerable to the environmental risks associated with this settlement type. While much is known about child morbidity and mortality in informal urban settlements, little is known about maternal perceptions of child health. This thesis explores the determinants of maternal perceptions of child health in the informal urban settlement of Kibera in Nairobi, Kenya. Data utilized in this thesis come from A Kenya Free of AIDS (KeFA), a research-based, National Institute of Health-funded project. Through Respondent Driven Sampling (RDS), 320 women in Kibera were recruited for interviews. Of these, 277 reported having children in their care and were accordingly selected for analysis. Questions selected for analysis were divided into four categories: child health, maternal background, social and economic support, child characteristics and maternal health. Data were analysed using Student's t-tests, chi-squares, and multiple regression methodology. Two different response variables were used in the regressions: general child illness rating and infrequency of child illness. Analysis indicated that women in the sample were significantly more likely to report poor child health if they: had more children in their care, had younger children in their care, were involved in an intimate relationship, and had experienced a recent barrier to medical treatment for a child. Exploring maternal perceptions of child health is critical because these perceptions are the precursor to healthcare-seeking behaviour.

The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.
