The AHA invites hospitals and health systems to participate in the Better Maternal Outcomes Improvement Sprint, a free, six-week program beginning July 27 that will focus on using huddles, checklists and debriefs to improve maternal health outcomes and equity. Topics to be covered include hemorrhage, hypertension and Cesarean birth. The AHA is partnering with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement on the program as part of the association’s Better Health for Mothers and Babies Initiative.
