Midwife-led quality improvement: Increasing the use of evidence-based birth practices in Uganda.

A multifactorial midwife-led Quality Improvement resulted in significant and sustained improvements in the uptake of evidence-based practices in maternal and newborn healthcare. If given the mandate and time, midwives can successfully lead Quality Improvements, which enhance the quality of care and close the evidence-to-practice gaps in maternal and newborn health. The study's results underscore the significance of developing effective strategies to enhance care quality and promote the adoption of evidence-based midwifery practices.
