Description
Global health initiatives may change care quality, not just access, Irene Atuhairwe and co-authors set out to map in a 2024 protocol. Global initiatives have improved health care access worldwide. High maternal mortality, though, persists in low- and middle-income countries such as Uganda. Despite heavy investment, evidence on how these initiatives affect the quality of maternal health services is insufficient, and quality is what drives outcomes once women reach care.
Existing evidence focuses on outputs like facility deliveries and service use, which do not reflect quality. The protocol describes a scoping review to collate evidence on initiative effects on maternal care quality in Sub-Saharan Africa. It lays out questions, sources, and charting plans before the review runs. Readers get the blueprint.
