Treatment and care of Gynaecological cases



Maternity ward admission – (Deliveries and neonatal outcomes)


A section in the maternity ward is designated for the treatment and care of gynaecological cases. The common gynaecology cases for admission include; abortions, ectopic pregnancies, tubo–ovarian masses, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, fibroids and malignancies.

Cases of birth related injuries are occasionally hospitalised with most of them being mothers who delivered in villages or referred from lower-level health units within Napak District or from neighbouring districts.

The Hospital has two obstetrician/gynaecologists to guarantee specialised care for mothers so as to minimise maternal deaths. The specialists play a role in bedside teaching and mentorship of the midwifery trainees, midwives, intern doctors and medical doctors.
