Article Synopsis
- The research investigates the risk factors for intrapartum stillbirth in a teaching hospital in Burkina Faso, revealing a stillbirth rate of 20.1 per 1,000 births among 4,122 deliveries.
- Key factors found to significantly increase the risk of intrapartum stillbirth include previous caesarean sections, multiparity, receiving antenatal care from a nurse, and not using a partogram during labor.
- Other notable associations include higher risk linked to patient referrals, lack of obstetric ultrasound, and lower birth weight, while factors like the number of antenatal visits and labor duration showed no significant impact.
Introduction: After testing the interventions for improving the prevalence of contraceptive use, very few studies have measured the long-term effects thereafter the end of the implementation. This study aimed to measure Yam Daabo interventions' effects on contraceptive use in Burkina Faso at twelve months after completion of the intervention.
Methods: Yam Daabo was a two-group, multi-intervention, single-blind, cluster randomized controlled trial.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how timely adoption of long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARC) postpartum can extend inter-pregnancy intervals, focusing on women in Burkina Faso and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
- A total of 1,120 postpartum women participated, with groups receiving either a six-component intervention or standard care; results showed a significant reduction in the time taken to adopt LARCs in the intervention group compared to the control.
- The findings suggest that the Yam Daabo intervention led to earlier and increased use of LARC in both countries, highlighting its potential relevance in similar high-fertility, low-contraceptive-access regions of Sub-Saharan Africa.
Introduction: Women who use contraceptive methods sometimes stop early, use methods intermittently, or switched contraceptive methods. All these events (discontinuations and switching) contribute to the occurrence of unwanted and close pregnancies. This study aimed to explore contraceptive discontinuation and switching during the Yam-Daabo project to measure the effect of interventions on the continuation of contraceptive methods use.
