SBA Guidelines Cover Approved 19-6 ver 11

Foreword

Reduction in Maternal Mortality Ratio is one of the goals of the National Population Policy and the Reproductive and Child Health programme (RCH-II). Ensuring skilled attendance at every birth and access to quality emergency obstetric care for timely management of complications are critical interventions to achieve programme goals. Keeping this in view, a skill based training programme of 2-3 .weeks' duration for SNs and 3-6 weeks' duration for ANMs/LHVs has been designed. This training involves acquisition of skills like abdominal examination, pelvic assessment, managing all the stages of labour involving intrapartum care, newborn resuscitation, timely identification and management of complications, etc.

To accelerate the pace of SBA training and guide the State and District Programme Managers, Trainers and I/c of the identified training institutes in effective implementation of this training and its interventions as well as enable them to define their specific roles and responsibilities in conducting this training, Maternal Health Division, MOHFW, has come out with a concise and user-friendly Operational Guidelines with technical inputs from the Training Division, NIHFW and UNFPA.

It is envisaged that all the stakeholders at different levels would make optimal use of this document in effective implementation of the training in their districts, so as to achieve the goal of having skilled attendance at every birth.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the hard work and contribution put by Dr. N. Namshum (DC-MH), Dr. Himanshu Bhushan (AC-MH), Dr. Manisha Malhotra (AC-MH), Dr. Avani Pathak (Technical Consultant-MH) and Dr. Rajeev Aggarwal (Management Consultant-MH) to bring out these guidelines. Technical support received from NIHFW and Dr. Dinesh Agarwal, UNFPA is also highly appreciated.
