    Implementation of maternal and perinatal death reviews: A scoping review protocol
    (BMJ Open, 2019) Kinney, Mary V; Walugembe, David Roger; Wanduru, Phillip; Waiswa, Peter; George, Asha S
    The Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research will inform the development of a theory-based conceptual framework for MPDSR implementation. The methodology for the scoping review will be guided by an adapted Arksey and O’Malley approach. Documents will include published and grey literature sourced from electronic databases (PubMed, CINAHL, SCOPUS, Web of Science, JSTOR, LILACS), the WHO Library, Maternal Death Surveillance and Response Action Network, Google, the reference lists of key studies and key experts. Two reviewers will independently screen titles, abstracts and full studies for inclusion. All discrepancies will be resolved by an independent third party. We will include studies published in English from 2004 to July 2018 that present results on factors influencing implementation of MPDSR, or any related form. Qualitative content and thematic analysis will be applied to extracted data according to the theory-based conceptual framework. Stakeholders will be consulted at various stages of the process.

    Research on high quality health care needs to move beyond what to how
    (The Lancet Global Health, 2023) Kinney, Mary V; KC, Ashish; Waiswa, Peter
    Background: Health system quality has received much attention since The Lancet Global Health Commission on high quality health systems in 2018, which proposed new ways to define, measure, and improve the performance of health systems. Factors influencing quality of health systems are well known, both as inputs and processes, including WHO’s six building blocks (service delivery, health workforce, health information systems, access to essential medicines, financing, and leadership and governance), but we still need to think how to measure them.
