Interventions

  • MAMA Intervention — BEHAVIORAL
    The MAMA intervention will be based on PRONTO International's simulation training program to improve obstetric care delivery. The PRONTO curriculum is based on simulation and debrief of clinical scenarios, case-based learning, skills stations, and interactive teamwork and communication activities. Through the training, providers review and learn clinical skills related to obstetric care and emergencies, while reflecting on and practicing principles of respectful maternity care. The simulation exercises give providers and opportunity to "act" as the patient and develop empathy for the patient experience, and debriefing after simulation includes a reflection and discussion about RMC principles. The training will be two full days, followed by a refresher training in the clinical setting after one month.

Study Details

This study will work in Tanzania to develop and pilot test a simulation and experiential learning intervention for labor and delivery providers, in order to address HIV stigma during childbirth. The primary endpoint will be patient-rated changes in respectful maternity care, comparing women who deliver in the pre-intervention time period and women who deliver in the post-intervention period.
