Pregnancy Outcome Trends in Low-resource Geographic Areas |
| Purpose: |
|
The primary purpose of this population-based study is to quantify and understand the trends
in pregnancy outcomes in defined low-resource geographic areas over time, in order to
provide population-based data on stillbirths, neonatal and maternal mortality.
|
| Study Summary: |
|
The purpose of the Global Network for Women's and Children's Health Research is to develop
and test feasible, sustainable interventions to improve the outcome of women and children
and to develop research capacity in resource-poor settings. Because most of the sites have
weak health care systems, unacceptably high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality and
lack birth and death registries, they lack precise data on outcomes and measures of care.
Information from a vital registry system will allow the Global Network to document maternal
and neonatal mortality, design trials to address the major causes of poor outcome, assess
the outcome of our interventions, and ultimately disseminate the results as the basis of
public health policy.
