Strengthening identification and characterization of causes of perinatal deaths in Kaski district of Nepal (Perinatal MITS Nepal)
The mechanism of counting and accounting for deaths in a systematic manner is important and it can provide evidence to determine changes in clinical practice and to develop guidelines and training packages for preventive measures. The outcome will be helpful to standardize methods to establish the accurate causes of perinatal deaths and develop strategies to minimize the deaths. The selected pathological investigations can be integrated into the existing death surveillance system in order to effectively determine the causes of death.
