Obstetric Fistula Post Repair Follow Up: An Outreach Worker’s Perspectivepaperpublications3
Abstract: Obstetric Fistula is a childbirth injury caused by prolonged obstructed labour leaving a woman incontinent of urine or faeces or both. The stigma associated with the condition keeps many women hidden away. A woman with obstetric fistula is too often rejected by her husband and pushed out of her village due to her foul smell. Without treatment, fistula often leads to social, physical, emotional and economic decline. Although some women with fistula display amazing courage and resilience, many others succumb to illness and despair. Kenya is estimated to have 1000-3000 new fistula cases every year where as the national treatment capacity is only 500 clients per year. With the understanding of the impact this condition has not only to the affected clients but also to the community at large, several local and international organizations are currently supporting the fistula repairs in Kenya. Review of relevant literature reveals inconsistent findings about the need for the post repair follow up for this client. This leaves program designers and their funding partners to handle the issue according to their discretion. Most projects focus on identifying fistula clients supporting them to get the surgery document the number repaired but do very little to follow up on this client. This paper gives the perspective on an outreach worker who has supported fistula clients for the last 11 years. The author looks at what is currently happening in Kenya and brings out the need for establishing post repair follow up in the programs. The paper gives case studies in the client either benefited from post repair follow up to show an amazing outcome or lost life in unclear circumstances. The paper demonstrates the effect of this follow up to the client their significant other, the community and the effectiveness of the project. It finally gives recommendation on how this can be integrated in fistula management.

Gift of Hope
On October 23, 2006, 38 year old Maria Micheletto was in her Lockport, IL home when she was struck with the “worst
headache of [her] life”. She could barely walk and army crawled to the phone to get help. By the time she arrived at a local
hospital, Micheletto was paralyzed from the waist down. She sat in the ER waiting room for three long “excruciating” hours while
a series of misdiagnoses occurred. Micheletto was then flown to University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System where
neurosurgeon Dr. Amin-Hanjani performed a craniotomy to repair her ruptured brain aneurysm. Micheletto said, “Dr. Hanjani’s
staff was fabulous when I was in the hospital. While in the ICU, the nursing care was above great.” University of Illinois
neurosurgeons rank first in the state for treating the most aneurysm cases.
Micheletto was deeply inspired by the care she received at the University of Illinois Hospital and because of this she re-directed
her career and recently
became a nurse. Micheletto is a mother of two young children, has a busy nursing schedule at a suburban hospital and still finds
time to support brain aneurysm survivors. She was one of the FIRST survivors to join the support group in Chicago and has
become an important contributor to the Chicago BAF chapter through fundraisers, phone calls to survivors and through her
inspiring story.
According to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation “aneurysms represent a very serious illness which is associated with a high rate
of mortality and disability.” Micheletto can confirm that having survived a ruptured aneurysm is a very difficult experience to
have gone through and can be extremely unsettling. Gathering information about the condition can help ease this fear, help
begin the healing process, and bring a sense of comfort and support during a trying time. As a new nurse Micheletto can ease a
patients’ anxiety as they recover through any illness by sharing her story. Her nursing skills and recovery will help others heal
and strive for a healthy life, she provides daily, a Gift of Hope. For more information about brain aneurysms log onto
www.bafound.org or the support group at www.chicagoaneurysmsupport.com orwww.uicneurosurgery.com.

6. Brainstormers featured in the

Changing the world each day with kindness
The ”Brainstormers” University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System neurosurgery nurses,
pharmacists, occupational therapists, physical therapists and speech pathologists, ran a 200 mile
relay from Madison, Wisconsin ,to Chicago to raise money for The Brain Aneurysm Foundation.
The University of Illinois Hospital treats the most brain aneurysms in the state and is the
home of the ONLY Chicago Chapter of the Brain Aneurysm Foundation.
As the “Brainstormers” ran across the Midwest to raise funds they were cheered on by survivors
from their beds in the ICU and family members who had lost loved ones. They also received
support from U of I medical staff. Their impressive drive and commitment to not only care for
patients but to raise money for aneurysm research and support has provided hope to Illinois
survivors. Dr. Sepideh Amin-Hanjani, University of Illinois at Chicago Professor and Program
Director Co-director, Neurovascular Surgery says the runner’s efforts are significant. “I think the
runners represent the best of that remarkable quality we see every day in our team of
professionals caring for patients with brain aneurysms – a willingness to go above and beyond, to
go that extra mile. In this case, literally! Their dedication to successfully completing this
fundraising relay provides much needed support to the Brian Aneurysm Foundation in its mission
to provide education and research funding, both critical to helping advance the care of brain
aneurysm survivors.” The "Brainstormers" reached their $5000 fundraising goal and plan to run
again next year.
