abstract: 'BackgroundGlobally, including in low- and middle-income {[}LMIC]
|
|
|
|
countries, there is increased attention to and investment in
|
|
|
|
interventions to prevent and respond to violence against women; however,
|
|
|
|
most of these approaches are delivered outside of formal or informal
|
|
|
|
health systems. The World Health Organization published clinical and
|
|
|
|
policy guidelines Responding to intimate partner violence and sexual
|
|
|
|
violence against women in 2013. Further evidence is needed concerning
|
|
|
|
implementation of the Guidelines, including how health care providers
|
|
|
|
perceive training interventions, if the training approach meets their
|
|
|
|
needs and is of relevance to them and how to ensure sustainability of
|
|
|
|
changes in practice due to training. This manuscript describes a study
|
|
|
|
protocol for a mixed methods study of the implementation of the
|
|
|
|
Guidelines and related tools in tertiary hospitals in two districts in
|
|
|
|
Maharashtra, India.MethodsThe study will employ a mixed-methods study
|
|
|
|
design. A quantitative assessment of health care providers'' and
|
|
|
|
managers'' knowledge, attitudes, and practices will be conducted pre,
|
|
|
|
post, and 6months after the training. Qualitative methods will include a
|
|
|
|
participatory stakeholders'' meeting to inform the design of the training
|
|
|
|
intervention design, in-depth interviews {[}IDIs] and focus-group
|
|
|
|
discussions {[}FGDs] with health care providers and managers 3-6months
|
|
|
|
after training, and IDIs with women who have disclosed violence to a
|
|
|
|
trained health care provider, approximately 6months after training. The
|
|
|
|
study will also validate two tools: a readiness assessment of health
|
|
|
|
facilities and a health management information system form in a facility
|
|
|
|
register format which will be used to document cases of
|
|
|
|
violence.DiscussionThe multiple components of this study will generate
|
|
|
|
data to improve our understanding of how implementation of the
|
|
|
|
Guidelines works, what barriers and facilitators to implementation exist
|
|
|
|
in this context, and how current implementation practices result in
|
|
|
|
changes in terms of health services and providers'' practices of
|
|
|
|
responding to women affected by violence. The results will be useful for
|
|
|
|
governmental and non-governmental and United Nations Agency efforts to
|
|
|
|
improve health systems and services for women affected by violence, as
|
|
|
|
well as for researchers working on health systems responses to violence
|
|
|
|
against women in India and possibly other contexts.'
