Health System Factors Affecting Uptake of Antenatal Care by Women of Reproduc...Premier Publishers
This study sought to determine how health system factors affect antenatal care services uptake. A descriptive cross-sectional study design was adopted. The population under study was selected household members of the community, facility in charges as well as community own resource persons in Kisumu county. The study used purposive sampling method in selecting the Key Informants. A total sample size of 300 respondents were interviewed. The study used an interview and questionnaires to collect data. Descriptive statistics and chi-square tests were used to analyse data with the help of Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Chi-square analysis showed that distance to facility (p=0.043), waiting time (p=0.012), means of transport used (p=0.016), perceived quality of services (p=0.000) and perceived attitude of service provider (p=0.000) were significant as pertains to number of ANC visits. The study concluded that health system factors affect uptake of ANC. Specifically, lack long distance to hospital, long waiting time, poor quality of services, commodity stock outs and poor attitude of staff. The combination of these factors reduced uptake of ANC. The study recommended integration of traditional birth attendants, community health workers and health care workers services, regular ANC Outreaches and better equipping of rural health facilities.

Does Utilization of Antenatal Care Reduces Reproductive Risk? A Case Study o...PRAKASAM C P
This paper examines the utilization of antenatal care and out come of pregnancy and delivery complications (Reproductive risk) among currently married women in Andhra Pradesh, India. Data for this study were collected from DLHS-RCH-3 for Andhra Pradesh. Pregnancy outcome has been collected for all deliveries from the currently married women and the utilisation of ANC, health seeing behavior, pregnancy problems during and problems during delivery which have been considered as reproductive risk and analysed for the last child data. Reproductive history of 19825 deliveries for Andhra Pradesh form data set. Analysis has been carried out in three stages. Initially Pregnancy loss and its ANC and treatment seeking behavior have been analysed. At the second stage pregnancy complications and delivery complications for the last delivery in relation to outcome has been analysed for Andhra Pradesh data. At the third stage interrelation between Pregnancy out come and reproductive risk has been analysed by using logistic regression. Further influence of background variables on reproductive loss and treatment seeking behavior has been analysed. The results revealed that women experience still birth in Andhra Pradesh found to be around 2.9. Further results revealed that women who had utilized antenatal care services found to have less risk in delivering last child than other. Maternal age and husband occupation played significant influence in utilization of health care services leading to safe delivery in these two selected states.

India Clinical Trials Market: Industry Size and Growth Trends [2030] Analyzed...Kumar Satyam
According to TechSci Research report, "India Clinical Trials Market- By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F," the India Clinical Trials Market was valued at USD 2.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.64% through 2030. The market is driven by a variety of factors, making India an attractive destination for pharmaceutical companies and researchers. India's vast and diverse patient population, cost-effective operational environment, and a large pool of skilled medical professionals contribute significantly to the market's growth. Additionally, increasing government support in streamlining regulations and the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases further propel the clinical trials market.
Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle Diseases
The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.
Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
CHAPTER 1 SEMESTER V - ROLE OF PEADIATRIC NURSE.pdfSachin Sharma
Pediatric nurses play a vital role in the health and well-being of children. Their responsibilities are wide-ranging, and their objectives can be categorized into several key areas:
1. Direct Patient Care:
Objective: Provide comprehensive and compassionate care to infants, children, and adolescents in various healthcare settings (hospitals, clinics, etc.).
This includes tasks like:
Monitoring vital signs and physical condition.
Administering medications and treatments.
Performing procedures as directed by doctors.
Assisting with daily living activities (bathing, feeding).
Providing emotional support and pain management.
2. Health Promotion and Education:
Objective: Promote healthy behaviors and educate children, families, and communities about preventive healthcare.
This includes tasks like:
Administering vaccinations.
Providing education on nutrition, hygiene, and development.
Offering breastfeeding and childbirth support.
Counseling families on safety and injury prevention.
3. Collaboration and Advocacy:
Objective: Collaborate effectively with doctors, social workers, therapists, and other healthcare professionals to ensure coordinated care for children.
Objective: Advocate for the rights and best interests of their patients, especially when children cannot speak for themselves.
This includes tasks like:
Communicating effectively with healthcare teams.
Identifying and addressing potential risks to child welfare.
Educating families about their child's condition and treatment options.
4. Professional Development and Research:
Objective: Stay up-to-date on the latest advancements in pediatric healthcare through continuing education and research.
Objective: Contribute to improving the quality of care for children by participating in research initiatives.
This includes tasks like:
Attending workshops and conferences on pediatric nursing.
Participating in clinical trials related to child health.
Implementing evidence-based practices into their daily routines.
By fulfilling these objectives, pediatric nurses play a crucial role in ensuring the optimal health and well-being of children throughout all stages of their development.
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.

Abortion
Post-abortion care (PAC)
Contraceptive provision and counselling
CAC : MR, PAC, contraceptive provision and counselling
Menstrual Regulation (MR)
MR is a procedure to regulate the
menstrual cycle to ensure a non-
pregnancy
• MRM (mifepristone & misoprostol)
• MVA
3. Background
Unsafe abortion contributes to maternal mortality and morbidity
In humanitarian settings women and girls face increased risk of unsafe abortion
Barriers to comprehensive SRH care
Lack of prioritisation
Lack of training
Lack of equipment and supplies
Lack of knowledge on the abortion law
Stigma and negative attitudes affecting service provision
4. Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh
Over 900 000 Rohingya refugees from Myanmar
Large-scale incidences of rape and SV by the
Myanmar military
Following displacement, Rohingya women and
girls continue to face different forms of SGBV
GoB leads the humanitarian response
In March 2019
142 basic healthcare facilities and 8 hospitals, managed
by the GoB or NGOs
MR, PAC and contraceptive services were provided free
of charge at 29 facilities
5. Aim
To explore healthcare providers’ perception and experience of
providing comprehensive abortion care in the humanitarian setting
in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh and to identify barriers and facilitators in
service provision.
6. Method
Study design: descriptive exploratory qualitative study
Sampling: purposeful sampling with assistance from Ipas, an organisation
involved in the humanitarian response in Cox Bazar
Data collection: 24 in-depth interviews (IDI)
19 IDI with HCP(16 paramedics and 3 doctors). Face-to-face at or close to their work in
Cox’s Bazar (March 2019)
5 IDI with key informants (December 2018 and March 2019)
Data analysis: inductive qualitative content analysis
7. (1) Collaboration
and organisation of
CAC
The MR policy provided a favorable legal
environment for MR,PAC and FP
Good collaboration among humanitarian actors and
with the GoB
HCPs expressed having a supportive work
environment
Supply and equipment was readily available and
adequate
However, implants was not readily available and not
all facilities provided IUD
The Mexico City policy affected organisations'
willingness to provide MR services
led to territorial disputes about which organisations should
provide FP services
led to lack of space for MR providers
8. (2) Confidence,
competence, and
pride affecting
HCPs’ provision of
CAC
HCP felt confident that they provided good services
Adopting the same language (dialect) was
experienced as facilitating trust
HCP took pride in their work and created a positive
identity that generated an enabling environment
where they could provide services
“I feel happy that from a worst scenario, I helped a girl
to live a new life. I love these things with the job, to help
and protect people from danger.” (Paramedic 0–5 years’
experience)
HCP felt adequately trained in MR, PAC and FP and
had received training from NGOs before deployment
However, there was limited knowledge on the
abortion law among HCP and the knowledge on the
MR policy varied
9. (3) HCPs’
perceptions of
abortion and MR
influencing CAC
provision
HCPs defined abortion as PAC, spontaneous
abortion, or as termination of pregnancy after
week 12
MR was described as regulation of the menstrual
cycle that happened before the heartbeat
Before a certain gestational age (7-12 weeks), the
embryo was not considered a child and thus not
sinful to abort
“In my experience, I think the baby don’t have hands or
legs till 10 weeks. At that time, the baby is like an egg
yolk … And when there is a client who needs MR, we
make them understand that it is not a sin. And we tell
them, “It is now like a duck egg or a chicken egg, and
this is just like a liquid yolk inside your body.”
(Paramedic, more than 10 years’ experience)
10. (4) HCPs’
understanding of
Rohingya women’s
needs influencing
CAC provision
HCPs perceived the Rohingya community as
patriarchal and Rohingya women as religious and
conservative
Led to condescending attitudes
Affected HCPs understanding of Rohingya women’s
needs and desires
“They usually don't take implant and IUD because they
think that they will go to hell if they die after taking this in
her body” (Paramedic, 5- 10yrs experience)
“We tell them it MR is not a sin. Because it will save your
family, make you and your newborn child happy. You already
have a child. If you take another baby now, you will get a bad
impact on your health. You cannot give your children enough
care. So, take the MR and care for your family.” (Paramedic,
more than 10 years’ experience)
Adjusted counselling and used religion and
motherhood to increase acceptance
11. Conclusion
Based on the participants’ experiences, the study findings suggest CAC can be implemented,
and provision can be scaled up in a humanitarian setting, under rapidly changing
circumstances. However, access to and availability of quality CAC was limited as shown in
the result
The large number of actors involved in delivering SRHR programs in Cox’s Bazar creates an
opportunity to increase access to and availability of quality CAC
Training on MR policy and abortion law and in-service training, including value clarification,
should be secured to improve quality of care and ensure that the care provided is woman-
centred and non-judgmental.
To fully understand the trajectories to abortion-related care in the humanitarian setting in
Cox’s Bazar, more research is needed to understand women’s health-seeking behaviours and
encounters with abortion-related care from their own perspectives.
Thank you very much Amy (Chair). My name is Maria Persson, and I am here today in the capacity of my former engagement with Karolinska Institutet. And will present a study that I conducted together with former colleagues from Karolinska Instituetet 2019. The study was funded by RFSU (the Swedish Association for Sexuality Education). The study is a qualitative study on healthcare providers Experiences and Perceptions of providing Comprehensive abortion care in a humanitarian setting. And that humanitarian setting is Cox’s Bazar in Bangladesh.
