Data were collected from 80 health facilities using a cross-sectional, mixed method (quantitative and
qualitative) design. We assessed health facility readiness to manage PE/E and use MgSO4
as the drug of choice,
through provider interviews, in-depth interviews with facility managers and an inventory of equipment and supply
in facilities. Bivariate and qualitative data analyses were performed to isolate the principal enabling factors and
barriers to the management of PE/E and use of MgSO4
.
