Home delivery and late and infrequent attendance at antenatal care (ANC) are responsible  for substantial avoidable maternal and pediatric morbidity and mortality in sub-Saharan  Africa. This cluster-randomized trial aimed to determine the impact of a community health  worker (CHW) intervention on the proportion of women who visit ANC fewer than 4 times  during their pregnancy and deliver at home.
