Authors: J. O. Sotunsa*, M. Vidler, D. O. Akeju, M. O. Osiberu, E. O. Orenuga, O. T. Oladapo, R. Qureshi, D. Sawchuck, .O. O. Adetoro, P. von Dadelszen, O. A. Dada and the CLIP Nigeria Feasibility Working Group

Pre-eclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Early detection and treatment have been instrumental in reducing case fatality in high-income countries. This study was part of a multi-country evaluation of community treatment of pre-eclampsia to determine community health workers’ knowledge and practice in the identification and treatment of pre-eclampsia, as they are essential providers of maternal care services in Nigeria.
