EMERGENCY OBSTETRIC AND NEWBORN CARE (EmONC) and EMERGENCY TRIAGE TREATMENT (ETAT) TRAINING OF TRAINERS
1. BACKGROUND
Over the past three decades, maternal and newborn survival rates have improved globally. However, in Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA), newborn mortality rates remain among the highest in the world. In Lesotho, neonatal mortality stands at 26 deaths per 1,000 live births, with no significant improvement over the past decade.
Additionally, the maternal mortality rate is alarmingly high at 566 deaths per 100,000 live births, while the stillbirth rate in 2021 was 27 deaths per 1,000 total births. Many of these deaths could have been prevented with improved quality care during childbirth, including better monitoring and timely access to emergency obstetric care when needed. Like many other countries in the region, Lesotho faces high institutional mortality rates and stillbirths, as high-quality Maternal and Neonatal Health (MNH) services are not accessible to every mother and child.
