- W2333608190 abstract "INTRODUCTION: According to the World Bank, Haiti has a maternal mortality ratio of 350 per 100,000 births and an infant mortality rate of 53 per 1,000 births. The objective of this study was to evaluate acceptance of maternity waiting homes as a strategy to decrease maternal mortality in Milot, Haiti. METHODS: A convenience sample of 51 currently or previously pregnant women 18–40 years old were recruited from five villages in the catchment of a major hospital in Milot. Participants were asked about their health care use during pregnancy and labor as well as their willingness to use a hospital-based maternity waiting home, or residential facility, in the weeks preceding delivery if labor was deemed high risk. RESULTS: Ninety-four percent of women reported seeking prenatal care at a hospital or health clinic and 54% gave birth at a hospital. When asked why they delivered at home, women cited finances (33%), unexpected labor (29.2%), convenience (16.7%), and lack of transportation (8.3%). The majority of women reported willingness to stay at a maternity waiting home for a future high-risk pregnancy (90%) and believed their stay would be supported by their children's fathers (86.4%) and their mothers (82.2%). CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest the discrepancy between prenatal care use (94%) and hospital delivery (54%) is driven by financial concerns and inability to get to the hospital in a timely manner. Participants were largely supportive of maternity waiting home use for future high-risk pregnancies. A maternity waiting home may assist in decreasing maternal mortality in Milot, Haiti." @default.
