Beyond signal functions in global obstetric care: Using a clinical cascade to measure emergency obstetric readiness

DOI

We compare emergency readiness using the signal functions model and a novel clinical cascade. The cascades model readiness as the proportion of facilities with resources to identify the emergency (stage 1), treat it (stage 2) and monitor-modify therapy (stage 3). Data were collected from 44 Kenyan clinics as part of an implementation trial.Forthcoming publication: "Cranmer, J.N., et.al.
