Improving Rates of Delayed Cord Clamping in Ethiopian Hospitals: A Virtual Quality Collaborative
Implementation of a remote, virtual peer-led, QI initiative increased the rate of DCC at the 8 participating sites in Addis Ababa. Local QI teams demonstrated the ability to adopt and sustain DCC within their delivery room settings. EN-QI may serve as a model for other QI initiatives in low-resource settings.
