Popis: | Background: UP has the 2nd highest MMR which is 197 compared with national average of 113 (RGI-SRS-2016-2018).Although institutional deliveries in India has been increased from 78.9% (NFHS-4) to 89% (NFHS-5) [ UP from 67.8% to 83.4%] but still we are far away from SDG -3 target. It reflects that there may be increase in crude coverage but not in effective coverage. Materials and Methods: It is a cross sectional study conducted in May – June 2017. Out of 8 blocks of rural Varanasi, 4 blocks were selected randomly. Best functioning facility for EmOC services in each selected block were assessed using Facility Gap Assessment Schedule of IPHS. Result: None of the facility met the recommended standard for BEmOC .Tracking of drop out of ANC and PNC services, use of Partograph, treatment of abortion-related complications, were not found at all the 4 facility. Blood grouping and RH typing was also not functional at 2 of the 4 centers. Caesarean section and availability of blood bank were also lacking in CHC (FRU). Conclusion: If condition of best functioning facility in a block is not according to the recommendation then how can we expect to provide a good maternal health service to public. |
