Why focus on mothers and children?
• Every year more than half a million women die from complications related to pregnancy and childbirth
• This means that one woman dies every minute
• Women are the foundation of their families, the educators and often, the only economic support

• Good antenatal care (ANC) is key• ANC requires a basic diagnostics package: HIV,
syphilis, anemia, glucose, malaria, protein and leukocytes
• In developing countries, there is poor ANC coverage and poor quality ANC
• Accompanying tests are often not available and results are not given in an opportune manner
Simple actions can improve MCH

• They are not available for the conditions needed or they are too complex
• We still don’t understand: – People’s needs, communities’ needs– Interface with IT (e.g. cell phones) – How to involve communities in implementation– How to implement in different environments – How to broaden their use (expansion)– Sustainability and costs
POCTs could help, but…

• To identify needs, costs, barriers and opportunities for the introduction of POCTs in ANC and child health care.
• To develop and evaluate a social business model for the introduction of POCTs, which could work in different environments, is designed for sustainability and has a positive impact on communities

Methodology

• Health providers believe in technologies• Communities believe in diagnostics (hx. and payment)• Access through health centers and local posts• Local champions• High penetration of cell phones• Success with POC syphilis• Private sector & Public sector• Some POCs in development
Opportunities

• Regulatory Issues• Requirement of local “distributors” : increase prices!
• Logistic issues • purchase system• Distribution• Waste management
• Health workers´ “fears” • Roles, power, costs
• Limited knowledge about diagnostics and attributes• Guidelines do not include POC/dx• Lack of POC now for the Maternal package!!!
