14New Global Understanding ofMMR Reduction
- Once major obstetric complication develops- even
a trained TBA or a nurse cannot do much at home - These complications require effective back up by
trained OG experts - surgical interventions
- injections of antibiotic
- blood transfusion
- aggressive treatments

family) - Lack of understanding of complications
- Gender issues, Low status of women

places - Lack of communication network

- Unprecedented support from the private
practitioners - Unindicated C-section in check
- Availability of blood
- Still asking for additional funds from the BPL
- Non-BPL beneficiaries also being attended
- Under utilisation of Public facilities
32Issues in expansion
- Additional days stay after delivery
- Sanitary pads supply
- More funds for accompanying person Dai
- Other services Sterilisation/ IUD/ RTI/ STI/
HIV/AIDS/pap smear - More charges for transportation in Kutch
- Cost likely to increase to 2,00,000/100 deliveries
