L'OMS è stata chiara: la salute materno-infantile è un tema di enorme importanza sanitaria e richiede investimenti, progetti, energie e impegno, rappresentando una componente fondamentale della salute pubblica delle popolazioni umane.

Background: Research suggests that postnatal affective disorders such as anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are associated with lower levels of maternal sensitivity. Understanding the mechanisms through which maternal affective disorders influence maternal sensitivity is important as it could lead to more tailored effective interventions to improve outcomes for women and their infants. One mechanism that is yet to be explored is the way in which mothers' process infant-related information. This thesis therefore developed a cognitive model that aimed to examine this m

The worldwide maternal mortality rate is excessive. Developing countries such as Tanzania experience the highest maternal mortality rates. The continued exploration of issues to create ease of access for women to quality maternal health care is a significant concern. A central strategy for reducing maternal mortality is that every birth be attended by a skilled birth attendant, therefore special attention was placed on motivations and factors that might lead to an increased utilization of health facilities.

Maternal phenylketonuria is a disease process caused by the adverse effects of high maternal blood phenylalanine (PHE) on the fetus.

In 2013, approximately 289,000 women died from pregnancy-related causes and 2.8 million newborns died within the first 28 days of life. The vast majority of these deaths occur in resource-limited settings. This work examines risk and protective factors for the development of several perinatal complications that put mothers and their infants at risk for adverse health outcomes. We explored determinants of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension among women in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. We also examined the effects of pregnancy spacing intervals on perinatal outcomes in that group of women. We u

This thesis aims to describe how the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) tends to maternal health care in floodings and whether it should be deemed sufficient. Floodings in Pakistan (2010), Bangladesh (2017) and Sudan (2013) are used as units of analysis when conducting a content analysis. The theoretical framework consists of critical success factors for disaster response based in the emergency management literature. A big part of the theoretical framework revolves around the importance of expertise and rationality in disaster response planning and implemen

The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of a Maternity Cooperative Care Program (MCCP) on the prevalence of maternal and infant complications, maternal competence, social support, stress, and first-time-mothers' descriptions of their postpartum experience. Forty-one healthy, primiparous mothers who participated in a MCCP and forty-three healthy, primiparous mothers who received traditional maternity care were asked to complete the Perceived Competence Questionnaire, the Personal Resource Questionnaire, "The Help I Get" Questionnaire (spousal support), and three numerical rating scal

Maternal and child mortality, particularly during the neonatal period, are among the most challenging global health issues of this era. This burden disproportionately affects the poorest populations, across and within countries. And although many of these deaths would be avertable, improvements in most countries have been slow. This dissertation explores three main research questions: (1) what is the effect of maternal health on infant outcomes?; (2) what survival gains could be attained through improved interventions, across the continuum of care?; and (3) how do health system characteristics

This dissertation is motivated by two of the health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs): MDG 4, focused on reducing child mortality, and MDG 5, which aims to improve maternal health. My three papers evaluate the health and economic impact, and cost-effectiveness, of interventions to improve maternal and child health in three areas of the developing world using methods from decision sciences and statistics. In paper 1, I use a decision-analytic model that simulates the natural history of pregnancy and pregnancy-related complications to assess the expected health outcomes, costs, and cos
