Review of t.he -verbal autopsy ':omponent, of the st.udy indicat.ed that the majority of perinatal and mater'nal deaths were .-sso,:,iated wit.h a limited number of obstetric :omplications (infections, t.rauma, hemorrhage, ,malpresent.at,:ons and other ,bst.ruct.ed labors). The maj,:,rit.y of neonat.al deaths were associated with infetious diseases (sepsis, pneumonia, and in some cases tetanus) Review of the "Process Diagnosis" S,omponent, of the stdy revealed that families decision - making in the face of 1 ife-threatening maternal or neonat.al oomplioations was extremely inadequat,e and ill - informed: only one-fourth of situations were recognized when sympt-oms of a life-threatening ,:ondition appeared, and t.he majorit.y .:f Families who took some action either tried to treat the problem at, home or s-,.ught inadequate 'rare sources. These findings were presented to the umbrella group of non-governmental ,:,rganizjtions working in Bolivia, an d discussed in detail wit.h t he SCF director and <strong>MotherCare</strong> representafive in Bolivia. The results of this study suggest that. the intervention will require a st.rong informat.ion, education, and ,:ommnLcati,:n component t:, promote the recognition c,f and appropriate responset life-threat.ening co::,mplic-ations ,:,f pregnancy, labor and delivery, 4 the pi:erperium, and the newborn. Defining "appropriate response" in the face of the ext.remely limit.ed healt.h resources in the project. area should be the next major step in the process of intervention development.
