1. Experience on the Development and Use of Tool for Assessing the Quality of Maternal and Newborn Health Care and Services in Hospital and Primary Health Center in Indonesia DwianaOcviyanti *Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Faculty of Medicine University of Indonesia *Indonesian Association of Social Obstetrician and Gynecologist dwianaocviyanti@hotmail.com

2. Background • The decrease of maternal and neonatal mortality has been slow in Indonesia despite increasing access to institutional births, suggesting deficiencies in the quality of care. • MoHof Indonesia working together with Indonesian Association of Social Obstetrics and Gynecology (HOGSI) and Faculty of Public Health University of Indonesia (PPK-UI) carried out a systematic assessment of the quality of maternal and newborn health care and services in hospital and primary health center by developing a tool suitable to identify priority issues and promote action.

3. Developing the Tool • A standard-based tool, covering 2 main areas • case management • support facilities • Using scoring system range as A, B and C A - meet the criteria B - doesn’t meet the criteria C - not found /done at all For B and C : the designated score should be completed by giving explanation on it

4. Area of assessment The Quality of: • antenatal care • normal labor • delivery • newborn care, • postpartum care, • infection prevention • monitoring and follow-up • management of obstetrics complications • the supporting facilities for maternal health care

5. References • Main references: • WHO Making Pregnancy Safer: Assessment tool for the quality of hospital care for mothers and newborn babies (Eurotools 2009) • PONED & PONEK evaluation forms (2008) • Supporting references: • WHO Integrated Management of Pregnancy and Childbirth (IMPAC) guidelines books (2003 – 2006) • MoH guidelines of ANC (2010) • Williams Obstetrics and Gynecology (2010) • Other guidelines developed by MoH and medical school

8. Consideration in selecting the indicators to be assessed • Primarily based on references • Using minimum existing standards that are expected to give optimum outcome • If minimum existing standards are perceived to be insufficient, guidelines based on higher standards are used as recommendations of practice • Discussion with experts • Indicators should produce data that are important in developing: • maternal and neonatal care and services • Improvement and future interventions by the MoH ( the way forwards)

9. Progress of development • Begins in October 2010 • Weekly/biweekly meetings (core team) • Monthly/bimonthly meetings (core team,with WHO, UNFPA, MoH, PPK-UI) • Meetings with reviewers (expert from professional organization and center of education) • January 2011 • November 2011 • Online correspondence and feedbacks from all the reviewers • 1st field test at RS Budi Kemuliaan to test the tool – Jul 2011 • Finalisation – Jan 2012

10. Experience in using the tool • 20 hospitals, 40 government primary health centers and 40 midwife’s private clinics at 10 provinces in Indonesia • Random sampling method. • Sources of information • visit to services, • medical records, • observation of cases, • interviews with staffs and mothers.

11. The Assessor • Multidisciplinary team (one team for each province). • Each team consist of: • 1 OBGYN specialist, • 2 GPs • 2 midwives • 1 health staff from Ministry of Health • 1 health consultant from international donor agency. • Local managers and staff provided the necessary information and were involved in discussing the findings and the priority actions

12. The Assessment • Training for the assessors – Feb 2012 • 2nd field test (4 district hospital and Primary Health Center in Bogor) – Feb 2012 (all member of the team practise to use the tool in ‘real situation’ at the hospital and puskesmas) • Assessment in 10 provinces – Feb to Mar 2012

19. Problems During tools development: • Deciding which indicators to be investigated • Defining the standards of care because the available guidelines are not yet established nationally During assessment: • Varied perception among the assessors towards the score

20. Conclusion • A tool has been developed and could be used for assessing the quality of maternal and newborn health care. • This tool had already been used and the result seemed suitable to be use as a baseline data to improve the quality of maternal and newborn health care and services in hospital and primary health center in Indonesia *email adress: dwianaocviyanti@hotmail.com
