Grant: Knowledge to Action - Maternal Health: From Pre-conception to the Empty Nest
Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM)
$195,832.00
Introduction of Audit generated Changes in maternity care groups using "Tailored" implementation strategies.
FY 2010-11
Summary
Provided that audit results are translated into actions and health care innovations are implemented, maternal death audit is a valuable instrument to improve the quality of maternal care. We carried out in 2009-2010 an experimental study in Mali and Senegal to assess the effectiveness of an intervention based on maternal death audit in terms of maternal mortality decrease (QUARITE project). Suggestions for the improvement of care, however, are only sporadically subjected to a structured analysis and are hardly implemented into actions and daily practice. Even if the suggestions are formulated by the health professionals themselves. The research question of the ACTion project is whether a "tailored" implementation strategy using an interactive software will aid local health professionals to implement change in their practice.
