Perceptions of midwives on the quality of emergency obstetric care at hospitals in Ethiopia: A qualitative explanatory study.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND:In Ethiopia, maternal mortality remains an important public health concern. High maternal mortality is attributed in part to the poor quality of obstetric care. This study was designed to investigate perceptions of midwives about the quality of emergency obstetric care provided at hospitals in the Harari region of Ethiopia. METHODS:An explanatory qualitative study was conducted from December 2018 to February 2019 at public and private hospitals in the Harari region, Ethiopia. The data were obtained through in-depth interviews with 12 midwives working in maternity units. The interviewers took notes and audio-recorded the respondents' descriptions. Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis method was employed to analyse the data using Nvivo 12 qualitative data analysis software. RESULTS:Poorly designed infrastructure, including a scarcity of beds, rooms and ambulances challenged the provision of quality obstetric services. Midwives working at hospitals were inadequate in number and training opportunities were scarce. Language barriers affected effective communication between patients and caregivers. Frequent disruptions to medical supplies resulted in the provision of suboptimal obstetric care as it created an inability to provide appropriate medications. A lack of treatment protocols, poor supportive supervision, and poor staff motivation impaired the provision of quality obstetric care at hospitals, although disparities were observed among hospitals in this regard. CONCLUSIONS:Several interdependent factors limited the quality of emergency obstetric care at hospitals in the region. Quality improvement initiatives and equitable resource distribution for hospitals need to be enhanced while the existing health infrastructure, resources and service delivery management need to be strengthened.
