Intervention(s)
|
Six wards in Toro Local Government Authority (LGA) in Bauchi State, Nigeria, are randomly allocated (allocation by statistician outside the local study team) to three waves of two wards. The study uses central, computer based randomisation by an epidemiologist not associated with the fieldwork. The randomisation is of whole districts, into intervention waves of 5 districts each, rather than randomisation of individuals. The duration of the intervention is three years. At this point, the primary and secondary outcomes will be measured in the five first wave (intervention) districts and in the five second wave districts, serving as the controls for the first wave districts.
The “treatment” is a package of structural interventions implemented in the five districts allocated to the first wave. The study tests the impact on mothers’ health of visiting all pregnant women every two months during their pregnancy and after delivery. In the visits, the female visitors ask them some questions about their health and discuss with them evidence about some problems that affect the outcome of pregnancy, and that can be tackled within the household: domestic violence, heavy work during pregnancy, lack of knowledge about danger signs of pregnancy, and lack of communication about pregnancy between women and their partners. Male workers visit the partners of the pregnant women to have the same discussions. The home visitors advise women with danger signs in their pregnancy to visit a health facility and provide a referral note for them. In half of the wards, the home visitors also show video clips to help the discussions about the problems that affect pregnancy outcomes.
