MIDWIZE - Strengthening midwives to implement and sustain quality improvements to optimise maternity care: A longitudinal observational study in Uganda
REFNo: HS1885ES
This PhD project aims to explore how midwives can take the lead in implementing or enhancing QI components within maternal health care in Uganda.
The overall goal of this project is to improve the health of women and newborns. The way to achieve this is through enhancing the quality of care by capacitating midwives.
Sub-study 1 - Co-creating and developing the intervention and the implementation
Specific objectives: To explore multisectoral stakeholders' perspectives and ideas on how to strengthen midwives' capacity to implement QI components.
To explore which QI components the midwives will implement or enhance.
Sub-study 2 - Implementation and evaluating the sustainability of the implementation
Specific objectives:
-To measure the uptake of evidence-based QI components when midwives lead, organise and provide enhanced intra- and postpartum care.
-To measure the long-term sustainability of the midwives' QI projects.
Sub-study 3 – Process evaluation
Specific objective: To evaluate the process of strengthening midwives' capacity to implement QIs in maternal care.
