“…Midwives must make careful preparations while providing birthing services in independent practice during the COVID-19 pandemic, considering that the risk of becoming infected to death is highly vulnerable to occur in this profession. COVID-19 related training and delivery services during the pandemic, financial support, health insurance and routine rapid test screening for midwives should be carried out and become a particular concern for all independent practices (Zulfa et al, 2021).…”

The nurse has an important role caring for the patient infected with the coronavirus disease (COVID- 19). It is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The virus can spread from the mouth or nose of an infected person in small liquid particles when they cough, sneeze, speak, sing, or breathe. These particles range from larger respiratory droplets to smaller aerosols. It is important to practice respiratory etiquette, for example coughing into a flexed elbow, and to stay home and self-isolate until you recover if you feel unwell. Most people infected with the virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and will recover without requiring special treatment. Older people and people with underlying medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or cancer are more likely to develop serious illnesses. The goal of the research is to propose the best way to prevent and slow down transmission is to be well informed about the disease and how the virus spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection by staying at least 1 meter away from others, wearing a well-fitting mask, and washing your hands or using an alcohol-based rub frequently.

“…The false-positive assessment of the high MEOWS may be caused by one of the assessments of the MEOWS score that almost all patients have, both in shock and non-shock patients, causing the MEOWS score to be higher at the time of measurement. From the results of the study, it was also obtained that the Pvalue <0.05 both on the shock index score and MEOWS where there was a correlation between the shock index and MEOWS in predicting the occurrence of shock (Primadewi & Diwyami, 2021;Zulfa et al, 2021).…”

The physiological parameters included in the Modified Early Obstetric Warning Score (MEOWS) table have been selectively selected so that they cover all the standard observations in the NEWS table with the addition of several parameters that are specifically. The population in this study were all pregnant women who were in RSIA Siti Khadijah I Makassar and RSUP Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Makassar. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the shock index and the incidence of shock (p=0.418). The difference in frequency between the shock index and the incidence of shock in the ICU was 1 patient who was pregnant. Based on shock index with high and low categories did not differ significantly (p=0.418). The data also shows that the frequency of pregnant women who are in shock is higher, namely 44 people (57.9%) compared to those who are not in shock, namely 32 people (42.1%). There was no significant difference between the shock index and the incidence of shock (p=0.112). The difference in frequency between the shock index and the incidence of shock in the ICU was 5 patients with pregnant women. Shock frequency based on the MEOWS index was not significantly different (p=0.112).

“…Key bottlenecks included midwife shortages, excessive workloads and a lack of clinical competencies, training, and professional autonomy. The studies also emphasised the need for continued professional development for MLBC midwives to maintain clinical skills and competencies [ 5 , 17 , 18 , 20 – 23 , 25 , 27 – 30 , 32 – 34 , 36 , 37 , 39 – 41 , 44 , 45 , 52 – 54 ].…”

The evidence for the benefits of midwifery has grown over the past two decades and midwife-led birthing centres have been established in many countries. Midwife-led care can only make a sustained and large-scale contribution to improved maternal and newborn health outcomes if it is an integral part of the health care system but there are challenges to the establishment and operation of midwife-led birthing centres. A network of care (NOC) is a way of understanding the connections within a catchment area or region to ensure that service provision is effective and efficient. This review aims to evaluate whether a NOC framework—in light of the literature about midwife-led birthing centres—can be used to map the challenges, barriers and enablers with a focus on low-to-middle income countries. We searched nine academic databases and located 40 relevant studies published between January 2012 and February 2022. Information about the enablers and challenges to midwife-led birthing centres was mapped and analysed against a NOC framework. The analysis was based on the four domains of the NOC: 1) agreement and enabling environment, 2) operational standards, 3) quality, efficiency, and responsibility, 4) learning and adaptation, which together are thought to reflect the characteristics of an effective NOC.Of the 40 studies, half (n = 20) were from Brazil and South Africa. The others covered an additional 10 countries. The analysis showed that midwife-led birthing centres can provide high-quality care when the following NOC elements are in place: a positive policy environment, purposeful arrangements which ensure services are responsive to users’ needs, an effective referral system to enable collaboration across different levels of health service and a competent workforce committed to a midwifery philosophy of care. Challenges to an effective NOC include lack of supportive policies, leadership, inter-facility and interprofessional collaboration and insufficient financing. The NOC framework can be a useful approach to identify the key areas of collaboration required for effective consultation and referral, to address the specific local needs of women and their families and identify areas for improvement in health services. The NOC framework could be used in the design and implementation of new midwife-led birthing centres.
