Assessment of Quality of Care Among In-Patients with Postpartum Haemorrhage and Severe Pre-Eclampsia At St. Francis Hospital Nsambya: a Criteria-Based Audit(Article)
The maternal mortality ratio of Uganda is still high and the leading causes of maternal mortality are postpartum haemorrhage (PPH), severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. Criteria-based audit (CBA) is a way of improving quality of care that has not been commonly used in low income countries. This study aimed at finding out the quality of care provided to patients with these conditions and to find out if the implementation of recommendations from the audit cycle resulted in improvement in quality of care.
