Health workers' experiences of implementation of Helping Mothers Survive Bleeding after Birth training in Tanzania: a process evaluation using the i-PARIHS framework.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundIn-service training, including the competency-based Helping Mothers Survive Bleeding After Birth (HMS BAB) is widely implemented to improve the quality of maternal health services. To better understand how this specific training responds to the needs of providers and fits into the existing health systems, we explored health workers' experiences of the HMS BAB training.
methodsOur qualitative process evaluation was done as part of an effectiveness trial and included eight focus group discussions with 51 healthcare workers in the four districts which were part of the HMS BAB trial. We employed deductive content analysis informed by the Integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (i-PARIHS) construct of context, recipients, innovation and facilitation.
resultsOverall, health workers reported positive experiences with the training content and how it was delivered. They are perceived to have improved competencies leading to improved health outcomes. Interviews proposed that peer practice coordinators require more support to sustain the weekly practices. Competing tasks within the facility in the context of limited time and human resources hindered the sustainability of weekly practices. Most health facilities had outlined the procedure for routine learning environments; however, these were not well operational.
conclusionThe HMS BAB training has great potential to improve health workers' competencies around the time of childbirth and maternal outcomes. Challenges to successful implementation include balancing the intervention within the routine facility setting, staff motivation and workplace cultures.
