Involving Men in Maternity Care in Burkina Faso
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Partner involvement for Postpartum Period. Completed, enrolled 1,144 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The uptake of postpartum contraception, postpartum care attendance and the practice of exclusive breastfeeding are low in Sub-Saharan Africa. Although the involvement of men in maternity care has been shown to be a promising strategy for the achievement of other reproductive health goals, little is known about the effect of their participation on these outcomes. This study aims to test whether the involvement of men can improve care-seeking and promote healthy behaviours among postpartum women in Burkina Faso.
