No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness and cost of a simulation-based low dose high frequency (LDHF) plus m-Mentoring training versus the traditional group-based training approaches in improving knowledge and skill in maternal and newborn care and to determine trainees' satisfaction with the approaches in Ebonyi and Kogi states.

The specific objectives are to:

1. Compare knowledge and skill learning outcomes between the two groups of birth attendants trained through the simulation-based LDHF/m-Mentoring versus group-based training approaches in Kogi and Ebonyi states over 12-months.
2. Assess the trainees' satisfaction with a simulation-based LDHF/m-Mentoring and group-based training approaches in improving skills of birth attendants in the selected facilities in Kogi and Ebonyi state over 12-months.
3. Determine the cost and cost-effectiveness of LDHF/m-Mentoring and group-based training approaches in improving skills of birth attendants in the selected facilities in Kogi and Ebonyi state over 12-months.
