课程名称:全球视角下的分娩 课程概述:本课程将审视发展中国家母婴健康面临的挑战,在这些地区,许多女性和婴儿在妊娠、分娩及产后几天面临并发症。课程主题包括母婴死亡和疾病的流行病学、全球健康工作队伍相关问题、以社区为基础的干预措施以改善母婴健康与生存,以及围绕分娩的社会文化动态。 本课程全面概述了低收入和过渡国家面临的母婴健康问题,每年有超过260万名婴儿死胎,近50万名女性在分娩或因妊娠相关并发症而死。在发展中国家,许多女性在没有专业护理人员、药物或技术支持的情况下选择在家分娩。通过动员社区、改善获得专业护理的机会,可以提高母婴生存率。 通过讲座、案例研究和阅读材料,参与者将学习母婴健康服务中的分娩挑战,以及如何利用社区基础策略来改善母亲和婴儿的健康与生存。 课程大纲: 1. 全球母婴死亡和疾病的介绍:讨论发展中国家妊娠和分娩的全球健康影响。 2. 美国母婴死亡和疾病的介绍:解析美国母婴死亡率上升的现象及其背后的原因。 3. 医疗工作队伍短缺的影响:探讨合格医疗工作队伍对降低母婴疾病和死亡率的重要性及应对策略。 4. 紧急产科护理及卫生设施服务:了解紧急产科护理(EmOC)的干预措施以及在国家和地区层面的评估和监测。 5. 通过社区基础干预改善母婴护理:学习如何动员普通公民有效改善母婴健康,回顾参与式学习和行动的研究成果。 6. 埃塞俄比亚案例研究:了解埃塞俄比亚母婴健康合作项目的背景、目标、干预假设、项目评估和结果总结。 通过这些模块,学员将深入了解全球及地区性母婴健康问题以及提升母婴健康的有效策略。
Name:Introduction to Maternal Mortality and Morbidity in the Global Context
Description:Welcome to Module 1! This course will discuss the global health implications of pregnancy and childbirth in the developing world, where far too many women and babies die from complications during pregnancy, childbirth, and soon after childbirth. Themes covered in this module include an introduction to maternal care, an in-depth look at the numbers, and a look at maternal mortality and morbidity in a global context.
Name:Introduction to Maternal Mortality and Morbidity in the U.S. Context
Description:In this module you’ll visit the United States where, believe it or not, maternal mortality rate is actually on the rise! In fact, maternal mortality has doubled in the U.S. during the last two decades. Why is that? And what can be done to reverse this trend? Along the way you’ll meet a physician and her patient who will help us answer some of these questions.
Name:The Impact of the Health Care Workforce Shortage
Description:In this module we’ll be discussing the critical importance of having an adequate and well-trained health workforce for reducing maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality. We’ll be discussing the problems of shortage and maldistribution, as well as some important strategies for addressing these problems such as task shifting and task sharing.
Name:Emergency Obstetric Care & Health Facility Services
Description:In this module, we will learn about a globally recognized package of such interventions called emergency obstetric care, or EmOC. We will spend some time learning about how emergency obstetric care is assessed and monitored at the national and sub-national levels, including quality improvement measures. Lastly, we will consider some key challenges and potential solutions in developing country contexts.
Name:Improving Maternal Care through Community-Based Interventions
Description:This module will take a new turn - how ordinary citizens can be mobilized to effectively take action to improve health for mothers and babies. You will learn about participatory learning and action. You will learn what research studies have to say about the effectiveness of this kind of approach. Also, you will get a chance to see specific examples of the outcomes of community mobilization in two settings, one in Atlanta, Georgia in the U.S., and one in the Caribbean country on the island of Hispaniola, the Dominican Republic.
Name:Case Study in Ethiopia: Educating the Community and Training Front-Line Community Health Workers
Description:Welcome to the last module! In this module, you will receive an overview of the Maternal and Newborn Health in Ethiopia Partnership (referred to as MaNHEP). Also, you will learn about the Ethiopian context regarding maternal health; the overall goal of the MaNHEP project and its key partners and supports; where the project was situated within Ethiopia; the assumptions that serve as the basis for the project’s intervention; the project evaluation; and a summary of results. Finally, we will take a step back to examine the strengths of the project and its potential for scale-up and possible application elsewhere.
This course will review challenges for maternal and newborn health in the developing world, where a great many women and babies are suffering from complications during pregnancy, childbirth, and the days following birth. Themes covered include the epidemiology of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity, relevant issues for the global health workforce, community-based interventions to improve maternal and newborn health and survival, and sociocultural dynamics surrounding birth. This course provides a broad overview of maternal and newborn health issues facing low-income and transitional countries, where more than 2.6 million babies are stillborn and nearly 500,000 women die during childbirth or from pregnancy-related complications each year. In the developing world, many women deliver at home without a skilled care provider, drugs, or technological supports. Maternal and newborn survival can be improved by mobilizing communities and improving access to skilled care. Through lectures, case studies and readings, course participants will learn about delivery challenges for maternal and newborn health services and how to utilize community-based strategies to improve the health and survival of mothers and babies.
