Equitable access to maternity care practices that promote high-value family-centered intrapartum care

Frost, Jordana 23 October 2018 (has links)
BACKGROUND: Despite large investments in maternity care services, perinatal health outcomes in the U.S. are among the worst compared to other industrialized countries, with documented perinatal health disparities disproportionately impacting racial and ethnic minorities. Midwifery-led freestanding birth centers (FSBC) have emerged as an underutilized model for the safe and cost-effective care of women with low-risk pregnancies. Despite approximately 85% of all US pregnancies being considered low-risk, only 0.5% of all US births occurred in a FSBC in 2016. The goal of the study is to elucidate strategies used to develop and sustain freestanding birth centers (FSBCs) that are seeking to serve high proportions of publicly-insured women and women of color. METHODS: I conducted an embedded unit case study, including semi-structured in-depth interviews and focus groups with 49 stakeholders from three exemplary FSBCs. Supplemental interviews were led with five key informants from three additional FSBCs and a relevant national membership organization. Additional data sources used to complete this case study include, where relevant and permitted, observations of maternity care settings, patient-provider encounters, management meetings, community events, and review of pertinent documents. Qualitative analysis methods were used to identify common themes and variations. FINDINGS: Midwifery-led birth center care can improve the experience and outcomes of maternity care among publicly insured women of color. The study revealed persistent multi-level challenges, as well as the use of common approaches to overcome these organizational, financial, and cultural barriers, resulting in greater, yet still fragile, access to family-centered intrapartum care within the communities in which these FSBCs operate. CONCLUSIONS: The careful integration of FSBCs into health systems such as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) may contribute to the broad scale-up of this underutilized model of care. While integrating FSBCs into FQHCs may be helpful in expanding equitable access to birth center care, it is not necessary, and also not sufficient. Expansion efforts should include additional deliberate processes and strategies to ensure equitable uptake and sustainability of birth center care. / 2020-10-23T00:00:00Z

The Delivery Home : Giving Birth with Spatial Support / Förlossningshemmet : Föda med rumsligt stöd

Hovrell, Yonna January 2023 (has links)
Most labour rooms in Sweden pretty much all look the same. They have a white plastic floor and a light colored wall. The room has one bed, and next to the bed you find machines that will help you if anything goes wrong. These rooms are made to give birth in - but somehow they’re not made for that at all. This project is based on research showing that home births can lower the risk of several medical interventions, infections and helps to get a better birthing experience overall (in low risk pregnancies). In Sweden only about 0,1% give birth at home, which is something that might change with time - but not everyone has the possibility, or feel safe enough, to give birth in their own home - or even want to. In Swedish history there was a transition from giving birth at home to giving birth at the hospital - and during this transition there also existed delivery homes. These were places that gave the opportunity to give birth in a home like setting - but with a more evolved medical security than in the home. These homes were later found not as cheap to run as the cost effective hospitals - and were all eventually shut down. Until now. The project uses biophilic design and rounded shapes to connect to the shapes of nature, while at the same time combining it with the rural Swedish home. The project becomes a space to give birth in - but also share experiences, meeting family on your terms, celebrate the life created and mourn when life gets taken away too soon. The birth of a child is one of the biggest things that can happen in a persons life. And we should give birth, not only with medical support - but with spatial support as well.
