Capacity Building for Maternal Emergency Services Using Low Tech High Fidelity (LTHF) Simulator Method and Interprofessional Collaboration for Health Workers on Bawean Island

Abstract

Background - Maternal emergencies encompass a wide range of conditions that can endanger the lives of pregnant women or newborns, so the speed and availability of quality care is crucial in saving the lives of mothers and babies, especially in remote areas such as Bawean Island. Objective - Capacity building for maternal emergency services is a strategic step aimed at improving the ability and efficiency of the health care system to handle emergency situations related to pregnancy and childbirth. Design / methodology / approach - The method used in capacity building is training on the ability to conduct interprofessional collaboration among health workers with lecture, discussion and simulation methods with the use of LTHF simulators so that it is expected that during capacity building activities, participants can experience conditions that resemble real life. This capacity building activity consists of: Providing refreshing material related to maternal emergencies and simulating interprofessional collaboration using the LTHF simulator. Findings - Training participants stated that the above training method was very interesting and provided new experiences to prepare themselves in handling maternal neonatal emergencies that can occur at any time. The increased capacity to manage maternal neonatal emergencies can improve the effectiveness of medical actions and case management in emergency situations involving maternal health during pregnancy, childbirth, or the postpartum period after the training. Maternal neonatal emergencies that are often found are heavy bleeding, eclampsia, infection, asphyxia or other complications that can endanger the lives of pregnant women and their babies. Conclusion - Increasing the capacity of maternal emergency services through the Low Tech High Fidelity (LTHF) Simulator method and Interprofessional Collaboration is a significant step to improve the quality of services and safety of pregnant women and newborns on the island of Bawean.
