How Can Epidemiological Data Improve EmOC Services?
Epidemiological data can significantly improve EmOC services by identifying high-risk populations, geographical areas with inadequate services, and gaps in healthcare delivery. This data supports the allocation of resources, training of healthcare providers, and the implementation of evidence-based practices. For example, data on the prevalence of postpartum hemorrhage can lead to the prioritization of oxytocic drugs in maternal health programs.
