Conclusion
HAND INFECTION
The findings of this study provide sufficient evidence of the effectiveness of the ENAT intervention in improving birth weight in the study population. ENAT is likely to reverberate with maternal and newborn health programmers because it has demonstrated that existing routine ANC packages in public facilities can improve birth weight further when implemented fully and appropriately with particular emphasis on point-of-care testing and infection prevention. The intervention is easier to implement and scalable within the ANC framework of public health facilities. However, it costs more than the Ethiopian government’s funded ANC services that are freely available to pregnant women in health centers.
