Ending preventable maternal mortality is possible as in the case of Kiambu County. This county benefited from @EmotiveTrial interventions and they have scaled & sustained the best practices. @arricoomarasamy @LeanneBeeson @alfredosoti @GeorgeGwako

The @EmotiveTrial has extensively been featured by the @gatesfoundation in this documentary. It still continues to impact thousands of lives of women and newborns globally. @arricoomarasamy @LeanneBeeson @alfredosoti @ammalife @unibirmingham @GeorgeGwako @IoannisGallos

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

The @EmotiveTrial proved that a simple yet effective approach—early detection using calibrated blood collection drapes and bundled treatments—can reduce severe bleeding by 60%.

The E-MOTIVE method is a solution saving lives.

On #InternationalWomensDay, I celebrate @OfficialMakueni County. For the last 2 year ZERO maternal mortalities related to PPH. The county scaled up @EmotiveTrial recommendations to achieve those outcomes. With good leadership it is possible to end maternal deaths.

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

Studies have shown a significantly higher mortality rate for newborns who lose their mothers during birth, Prof. Qureshi emphasizing the need to address preventable maternal deaths through the @EmotiveTrial PPH care bundle during the @TheKOGSociety conference. #EWENE

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

The ripple effects of the @EmotiveTrial are getting stronger! @arricoomarasamy's gave everyone an opportunity to innovate especially the young health care workers, Kenya is now using reusable calibrated drapes—with biodegradable options on the way! #MaternalHealth #Innovation

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

Continuous knowledge and skills mentorship in PPH will ensure fidelity to the @EmotiveTrial care bundle approach saving lives of million of women globally.

Prof. Qureshi and the @uonbi team demonstrating how to conduct CCT during the removal of the placenta with the calibrated drape unrolled to receive blood. @EmotiveTrial , @GeorgeGwako @alfredosoti

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

The @EmotiveTrial showed the benefits of objective measurement of blood loss during vaginal birth via the calibrated drapes. Visual estimation is usually wrong and misleading and may lead to wrong diagnosis of PPH. The @TheKOGSociety provided a platform to share the best practice

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

The recently concluded @TheKOGSociety conference focused on ending maternal mortalities due to PPH with a whole day dedicated for PPH skills training through the @EmotiveTrial approach.

After a complication that resulted in bleeding, Salome Achieng's life was saved by the E-MOTIVE package. @citizentvkenya reports on how @Jhpiego works with Vihiga County to apply E-MOTIVE in care for mothers who experience postpartum haemorrhage. https://t.co/136FphR31e

[Polycarp Oyoo, RN.BscN @OyooPolycarp]

The @EmotiveTrial ripple effects can still be felt across the world. Vihiga was one of the hospital in Kenya that benefited from the PPH care bundle training. #EveryBirthCounts

This a brilliant article on the importance of swallowing for successful #breastfeeding, and I have seen its magical impacts @kalafong_health

Breastfeeding support is beyond just health education or small talk! #Mothers of sick and small #newborns need exceptional support, and this support must be ‘#multidisciplinary’.

The E-MOTIVE bundle is a critical innovation in reducing the severity of PPH and maternal mortality. It is important to implement this innovation in all facilities; the availability of quality Oxytocin and Tranexamic acid is paramount. @emot
