2. Improving the Quality of Care for Women with Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension Reduces Costs in Tver, Russia

Information:	The Quality Assurance Project/ Russia implemented a quality improvement (QI) demonstration project in 1998 at three hospitals in Tver Oblast, Russia. The project sought to improve the quality of care for women with pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), then the single largest cause of maternal deaths in Tver. Central to the QI effort was the development and introduction of evidence-based clinical guidelines for the management of PIH. The new guidelines rationalized admission criteria and the use of drugs, reduced the number of PIH admissions, and called for more aggressive treatment of PIH. Health outcomes improved. The cost study used a before-and-after cross-sectional design. Cost data were collected from two of the three hospitals that participated in the demonstration pilot: Torzhok Hospital and Vyshny Volochyok. Data were collected retrospectively from medical records over a 15month period (January 1999–March 2000). The Before data were collected for months 1 to 6 (Janu-ary–June 1999), the new guidelines were implemented in months 7 to 9 (July–September 1999), and the After data were collected in months 10 to 15 (October 1999–March 2000). Cost data were not collected from Tver Maternity Hospital because it had delayed implementation of the new guidelines.
