Tóm tắt : | 91 p. Upon request from the Ministry of Health of Uzbekistan, the WHO Regional Office for Europe hascarried out activities for mother and child health care in Uzbekistan since the 1990s in collaborationwith a number of partners. The WHO Making Pregnancy Safer programme has been implementedsince 2002, through a series of policy dialogues with the Ministry of Health and partners, andbased on the sustained provision of technical expertise in key areas. In 2003, the Ministry of Healthissued a comprehensive normative document (Prikaz) on mother and newborn care, with thesupport of United Nations agencies and intergovernmental and nongovernmental organizations:the first in a series of documents endorsing evidence-based practices and WHO recommendations.Making Pregnancy Safer activities have included training workshops on improving maternal andneonatal health care, and assessment and follow-up after training to reinforce the skills acquiredduring courses in a number of districts. Evidence-based care for mothers and newborn babies wasintroduced at a 2003 workshop, and evidence-based guidelines for obstetric complications weredeveloped in the following years. In 2004 Uzbekistan participated in the first regional workshop onBeyond the Numbers (BTN), a global tool developed by WHO for reviewing maternal deaths andcomplications to improve quality of care. A BTN national workshop in 2005 reviewed the variousapproaches and recommended that near-miss case reviews (NMCR) and confidential enquiriesinto maternal deaths (CEMD) be introduced to Uzbekistan. A technical BTN workshop on NMCRwas held in June 2007, and a plan of action developed for pilot implementation. NMCRs started in2007 in four pilot maternity units, and international experts reviewed them in 2008. The lessonslearned were discussed at a workshop and the dissemination of NMCRs to other hospitals, and theintroduction of CEMD at national level, was recommended. The Ministry of Health is leading thecollaborative efforts of several partners to implement, disseminate and document thecomprehensive strategic approach to improve maternal and perinatal health, supported by WHOtechnical expertise. |
