Abstract:

Background Men have traditionally not been fully involved in reproductive health care of their partners, and yet, they play a crucial role in family decision-making and therefore crucial key players in preventing poor pregnancy outcomes. This study aimed to assess prevalence and determinants of male participation in maternal health care and explore male partners’ perspective of their involvement in antenatal care at an urban tertiary referral facility.

Background/Aims The provision of high-quality antenatal care improves maternal and child health outcomes. Pastoralist communities face unique challenges in accessing healthcare associated with a nomadic, marginalised lifestyle, and have high rates of maternal morbidity and mortality. There is minimal evidence on antenatal care use globally among this group. To develop optimal services for pastoralist communities, there is an urgent need to understand pastoralist women's use of antenatal care services.

Centering-based group care brings together a cohort of eight to 12 pregnant people with similar gestation early in pregnancy for care during eight to ten sessions throughout pregnancy and early postpartum. The group sessions may continue until the second year postpartum for care for both the birthing parent and the baby. Successfully putting the group care model into practice is based on group facilitation rather than didactic, class-like presentations. Basic antenatal clinical care is provided individually during the group sessions, making it reimbursable within the setting’s payor system.

Abstract:

The history of abuse and isolation of Native Canadian populations has created a gap in maternal health care, resulting in infant mortality rates (IMRs) of 12 per 1000 births for on-reserve populations compared to 5.8 per 1000 births for the general Canadian population. This discrepancy is deemed a population health issue, as Native Canadian people constitute roughly 3% of the Canadian population, but have infant mortality rates similar to other third world countries. Currently, there are multiple government and non-government organizations in charge of providing maternal health care for on-res
