Recent research in a rural district of Indonesia has indicated that poor service quality due to organizational and personnel factors is now a major determinant of this high MMR. The present research is an indepth analysis of possible health service organizational and quality of care related causes of death among 30 women admitted to a peak referral hospital in a major Indonesian city. Despite their condition being complex or deteriorating, most of these women arrived at the hospital in a state where it was feasible to prevent death with good quality care. Poor application of protocols, poor information flow from frontline hospitals to the peak referral hospital, delays in emergency care, and delays in management of deteriorating patients were the main contributing factors to these deaths. Pyramidal referrals also contributed, as many women were initially referred to hospitals where their conditio","cbCaii7oaKHzerRA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaii7oaKHzerRA","pdf",345223,13,"English","# Introduction\n## Maternal mortality context in Indonesia\n# Methods and analysis focus\n## Organizational factors and quality of care\n# Key contributing factors\n## Protocol implementation\n## Information flow and emergency delays\n## Management delays for deteriorating patients\n# Referral and system-level contributors\n## Pyramidal referral impact\n# Recommendations\n## Training, monitoring, and local capacity building","[{\"question\":\"What does the study examine regarding maternal deaths in East Java?\",\"answer\":\"It examines organizational and quality-of-care related causes of death among women admitted to a major referral hospital in East Java.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the main factors contributing to these deaths?\",\"answer\":\"Key contributors included poor application of protocols, inadequate information flow from frontline hospitals, delays in emergency care, and delays in managing deteriorating patients.\"},{\"question\":\"How could maternal outcomes potentially be improved according to the findings?\",\"answer\":\"The study highlights training and monitoring for rigorous protocol application, including forward planning for deterioration, alongside building local capacity to assess and address local organizational and resource-related delays.\"}]","Health system and quality of care factors contributing to maternal deaths in East Java, Indonesia | PDF"]
