The Rural Extended Services and Care for
Ultimate Emergency Relief (RESCUER) pilot project in eastern Uganda uses a
VHF radio and mobile walkie talkies to enable a network of traditional birth
attendants to partner with the public health service centers in order to
deliver health care to pregnant women. This results in increased and timelier
patient referrals as well as providing health care to larger numbers of
pregnant women. RESCUER led to a reduction in maternal mortality from 500 per
100,000 in 1996 to 271 in 1999.
