Overview

Randomized controlled trial evaluates triage protocols to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes in Ghana, indicating enhanced health service delivery.

Key Points

  • Maternal mortality and newborn mortality are critical health challenges in Ghana, necessitating effective interventions.
  • A randomized controlled trial across 25 hospitals assesses the OTIP's effectiveness on health outcomes and midwives' training.
  • The evaluation incorporates regression discontinuity analysis to validate the intervention's broader impact on care quality.
  • Improved triage protocols may significantly enhance maternal and neonatal health outcomes, addressing urgent health needs.
