- W4375844525 abstract "Evidence about the safety and benefits of midwife-led care during childbirth has led to midwife-led settings being recommended for women with uncomplicated pregnancies. However, most of the research on this topic comes from high-income countries. Relatively little is known about the availability and characteristics of midwife-led birthing centres in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aimed to identify which LMICs have midwife-led birthing centres, and their main characteristics. The study was conducted in two parts: a scoping review of peer-reviewed and grey literature, and a scoping survey of professional midwives' associations and United Nations Population Fund country offices. We used nine academic databases and the Google search engine, to locate literature describing birthing centres in LMICs in which midwives or nurse-midwives were the lead care providers. The review included 101 items published between January 2012 and February 2022. The survey consisted of a structured online questionnaire, and responses were received from 77 of the world's 137 low- and middle-income countries. We found at least one piece of evidence indicating that midwife-led birthing centres existed in 57 low- and middle-income countries. The evidence was relatively strong for 24 of these countries, i.e. there was evidence from at least two of the three types of source (peer-reviewed literature, grey literature, and survey). Only 14 of them featured in the peer-reviewed literature. Low- and lower-middle-income countries were more likely than upper-middle-income countries to have midwife-led birthing centres. The most common type of midwife-led birthing centre was freestanding. Public-sector midwife-led birthing centres were more common in middle-income than in low-income countries. Some were staffed entirely by midwives and some by a multidisciplinary team. We identified challenges to the midwifery philosophy of care and to effective referral systems. The peer-reviewed literature does not provide a comprehensive picture of the locations and characteristics of midwife-led birthing centres in low- and middle-income countries. Many of our findings echo those from high-income countries, but some appear to be specific to some or all low- and middle-income countries. The study highlights knowledge gaps, including a lack of evidence about the impact and costs of midwife-led birthing centres in low- and middle-income countries." @default.
