National Maternal and Perinatal Deaths Surveillance and Response meeting
Name | Ministry of Health Reproductive and Child Health Department |
Activity Title | National Maternal and Perinatal Deaths Surveillance and Response meeting |
Details | During this session, our focus was on reviewing progressive updates on actions proposed during the review of reported maternal deaths as a strategy to prevent similar cases. Following this, on November 2, 2023, we conducted a session to share insights and recommendations from the National Annual MPDSR report for FY 2022/2023. This event was crucial, allowing our team to analyze key findings, enabling informed decisions and improvements in our practices.
Continuing on November 9, 2023, we delved into the Mbarara EMS success story, emphasizing 'Building Efficient Emergency Response.' This session was of paramount importance, providing valuable lessons and best practices from a successful emergency response system, enhancing our team's capacity to handle similar situations effectively. The session on November 16, 2023, focused on Paediatric surgery as a continuation of obstetric care. This represented a significant CPD opportunity, aiming to strengthen the seamless transition from obstetric to pediatric care, contributing to enhanced overall patient outcomes. Moving forward, on November 23, 2023, we explored the 'Home to Home' model for improving newborn post-discharge outcomes. This session was crucial for understanding and implementing strategies to improve the well-being of newborns after leaving the hospital, promoting continuity of care beyond the hospital setting.
In addition to these specialized sessions, our weekly MPDSR reports provided continuous learning opportunities. These reports enabled our team to engage in discussions on mortality statistics and identify key recommendations requiring immediate implementation and follow-up.
CPD points for these enriching sessions were awarded on November 2nd, 9th, 16th, and 23rd, 2023, reflecting our commitment to ongoing professional development and the improvement of our healthcare practices. |
