Summary

PHFI independently evaluated the effectiveness of the Safe Childbirth Checklist program in preventing stillbirths and early neonatal deaths. Evaluation used a quasi-experimental design with data collection from 34 facilities across six intervention districts and four control districts. The study with a sample of 137,000 births has 88% power to detect 15% reduction in intrapartum mortality. Data on this was collected over a period of 17 months (November 2013 to April 2015).

Conditions

  • Intrapartum Mortality

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

SCC

The intervention involves introducing and orienting health providers on the SCC, facilitating availability of a specific set of commodities and regular targeted supervision. These are expected to improve adherence to life saving interventions immediately before, during and after birth, and reduce intrapartum mortality (still births and very early neonatal deaths).
