Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Nutrient Deficiency
In brief
The objective of this research is to understand how antenatal multiple micronutrient supplements (MMS) can be effectively implemented and scaled within the Uganda national health system context to support improved maternal nutrition and birth outcomes. Formative research has been conducted to design the implementation strategies that will be tested in this second phase of the study. The objectives are to: * Describe the implementation of the MMS intervention (which consists of MMS product, a social behavior change communication (SBCC) strategy, capacity building, MMS supply chain support, monitoring, and evaluation) and explore acceptability, feasibility, fidelity, coverage, and potential for sustainability. * Determine the effect of dispensing MMS in different bottle counts on MMS adherence and ANC attendance among pregnant women. * Determine the cost and budget impact of MMS intervention implementation integrated in the Ugandan ANC service delivery system
