The TruthA woman dies from complications in childbirth every minute - about 529,000 each yearthe vast majority of them in developing countries. (UNICEF)

8 million babies die every year before or during delivery or in the first week of life (UNICEF)

Pakistan has one of the highest child and adult mortality rates in the world.

More than 80% of maternal deaths are due to five direct causes:

• Haemorrhage,

• Infection,

• Complications resulting from unsafe abortion

• Prolonged or obstructed labour

• Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy such as pre-eclampsia.

Most of these deaths are preventableHaving a safe and clean environment to give birth in andskilled staff to look after mother and baby before, duringand after delivery are the key to decreasing infant andchildbirth deaths.

This state-of-the-art 100 bedhospital will be at the heart of theFoundation's work in Pakistan.

The hospital, which will be built in5 phases, will take five years to

complete and the estimated cost of the project is £2.6 million.

Training in Pakistan

In collaboration with HANDS and PILLS (Pakistan Institute ofLearning and living)) IFMCH has conducted 6 training programmes for midwives, lady healthworkers and traditional birth attendants covering areas such as safe delivery and managingobstetrics emergencies.

Altogether 123 participants attended the trainingprogramme, the participant are eager to get trainingon a weekly basis. We are working on the syllabus inorder to provide evidence based structured trainingto these women.

Post Graduate Training in PakistanIFMCH in collaboration with the Society of Obstetrics andGynaecology Pakistan (SOGP) have conducted MRCOG

exam courses free of charge. 48 Post graduate doctors attended the course which covered MRCOGExam Syllabus and preparation technique for the exam

Fees of similar courses in the UK are£ 400-500 pounds per course, andin Pakistan approximately 50,000Rupees per course. These vital, in-depth courses are not accessibleto the average health professional due to cost. The provision of thistraining free of charge or is essential to building consistent and highstandards in neonatal and maternity care.

Where are these doctors from where will they use these newskills to pass the postgraduate exam conducted by RoyalCollege of Obstetrician and Gynaecologist (RCOG) U.K
