Analytical framework of QoC themes for facility-based maternity care across five stages of child birth.
Broad themes of care ‘structure’ and ‘process’ in the analytical framework have been informed by Donabedian’s Quality framework. The WHO framework with its eight domains of quality of care informed the sub-themes. Three additional emerging sub-themes emerging from the data were included. The analytical framework was used for data analysis and guided the tool development. Abbreviation: QoC Quality of Care.
