Objective: Describe the implementation of Respectful Maternal Care in health facilities in the capital and discuss lessons learned. Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study by direct observation of providers from November 29 to December 01, 2020. It consisted of a baseline assessment of pilot sites prior to training in respectful maternal care, followed by the traditional five-day training and an extension to urban health centers, due to their on-site training in SONUB (obstetric and neo-natal care) Basic emergency natals) including the Respectful Maternal Care Training Module (PMF). Random random sampling by random draw, three guards per site, a midwife with a parturiente and their families, providers of health centers in post-training follow-up, were observed through the seven (7) performance standards (Table2) on the skills received. The investigators were clinical synthesis students who were trained in the use of the tool. Results: 199 providers (138 midwives, 49 nurses and 12 doctors) were trained in PMSC in the 24 health facilities in the capital. Post-training follow-up through providers made the following findings in the different areas of PMSCs: The seven (7) standards were observed prior to training in the 6 pilot sites (Center Médical Communal (CMC) of Matam, Minière, Ratoma, Coléah, Bernard Kouchner and the maternity hospital of the National Ignace Deen Hospital) (Fig.1), two were achieved or 0.3 the practice improved compared to the situation of the basic evaluation: in the seven areas of respectful maternal care evaluated and monitored, performance varied by area from 26% to 100% (Fig.2). In health centers, good practice was observed with the observation of skills during post-training follow-up: In the seven areas monitored, performance varied from 50% to 100% (Fig.3) Conclusion: SMR. integration was effective in 25 health facilities in the city of Conakry; training, internal and external regular supervision and provider awareness are essential to sustain PMSCs in daily practice.
Background: Premature rupture of membranes (RPM) is defined by rupture of the amnion and chorion before entering labor within 24 hours leading to vaginal discharge of amniotic fluid without uterine contractions. Objective of this study was to improving the management of premature Ruptures of the membranes received in the service.Methods: This was a descriptive and analytical prospective study lasting six months from January 1 to June 30 2016.Results: During the study period, we collected 108 cases of RPM out of 1543 deliveries, representing a hospital frequency of 7%. RPM had more frequently concerned pregnant women aged 25-29 (37.04%), housewife (37.03%), primiparous (45.37%) and referral (52.78%). 95.37% were single pregnancies with cephalic presentation (80%) received between 37-42 weeks (84.26%). Management mainly consisted of antibiotic prophylaxis (100%), fetal pulmonary maturation and childbirth. The vagina was the main mode of delivery (62.04%). The maternal prognosis was dominated by chorioamnionitis (12.96%). The fetal one was made up of respiratory distress (40.71%) and prematurity (12.39%).Conclusions: RPM is frequent at the Matam municipal medical center. It is essential for its prevention to ensure health education of the population in general and genital hygiene in particular, to make a coherent prenatal follow-up while putting a particular accent on the detection and the treatment of genital infections.
