Monitoring patients on ART within the CCMDD programme and those attending an urban healthcare facility in KwaZulu-Natal

Background: South Africa has high number of patients on antiretroviral treatment, necessitating innovative approaches to decongest healthcare facilities. The Central Chronic Medicines Dispensing and Distribution (CCMDD) programme is a national initiative that identifies stable chronic patients for collection at pick-up points away from the health facility. This study aimed to compare patient satisfaction and virological suppression among those who collected medication through the CCMDD programme and routine care.Methods: This descriptive retrospective analytical study was conducted at a community health centre in Pietermaritzburg from 01 January 2018 to 31 December 2018 and included a questionnaire and access to their medical records on the national medicines database. The 117 patients in the routine care and CCMDD programme groups were assessed at baseline and evaluated at 6 months and 12 months, which were the time points for viral load (VL) testing.Results: Of the 234 participants, 34 out of 117 (31.6%) remained in routine care at the 6-month review, and all but 7 patients had transferred to the CCMDD after 12 months. At the end of the study, 7 patients had VLs above 50 copies/mL and continued in routine care, while 97% (n = 27/234) remained virologically suppressed. None of the CCMDD programme patients moved out of the programme.Conclusion: Satisfaction with the CCMDD programme is indicated by the patients’ continued VL suppression, highlighting its potential to decongest healthcare facilities and reduce the strain associated with medication collection.Contribution: The findings in this study validate patients being registered onto the CCMDD programme.

Acceptability and feasibility of using a blended quality improvement strategy among health workers to monitor women engagement in Option B+ program in Lilongwe Malawi

Option B + provides lifelong ART to pregnant and breastfeeding women with HIV to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV (eMTCT) and improve maternal health. The effectiveness of Option B + relies on continuous engagement, but suboptimal monitoring of HIV care hinders our measurements of engagement. Process mapping and quality improvement (PROMAQI) is a quality improvement strategy for healthcare workers (HCWs) to optimize complex processes such as monitoring HIV care. We assessed the acceptability and feasibility of the PROMAQI among HCWs and identified barriers and facilitators for PROMAQI implementation. A cross-sectional study using a mixed method approach was conducted from August 2021 to March 2022 across five urban health facilities participating in PROMAQI implementation n the Lilongwe district, Malawi. We assessed PROMAQI acceptability and feasibility at the end of the study. A 5-point Likert (1 = worst to 5 = best) scale tool was administered to 110 HCWs (n = 15–33 per facility) involved in PROMAQI implementationThese data were analysed using descriptive statistics Among the 110 HCWs, twenty-two (QI team (n = 11) and QI implementers (n = 11)) were purposively selected for in-depth interviews. Thematic analysis was conducted using deducted and inductive approaches. The theoretical framework for acceptability (TFA) was used to identify reasons for acceptability. The Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) was used to characterize the barriers and facilitators of PROMAQI implementation. HCWs recruited had a median age of 37 (32–43) years, 82.0% of whom were female. Most (42%) had completed secondary education, and 84% were nurses and community health workers. The median (IQR) acceptability and feasibility scores for the PROMAQI were 5 (IQR 4–5) and 4 (IQR 4–5), respectively. Reasons for high PROMAQI acceptability included addressing a relevant gap and improving performance. Perceived implementation barriers included poor work attitudes, time constraints, resource limitations, knowledge gaps, and workbook difficulties. The facilitators included communication, mentorship, training, and financial incentives. PROMAQI is a highly acceptable and feasible tool for monitoring engagement of women in Option B + . Addressing these barriers may optimize the implementation of PROMAQI. Scaling up PROMAQI may enhance retention in the Option B + program and facilitate eMTCT.

Investigation on construction characteristics and indoor environmental quality of Fangcang shelter hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic in Shanghai, China

Since the rapid spread of COVID-19 in late 2019, Fangcang shelter hospitals have become crucial components of urban healthcare facilities. However, there remains a lack of systematic research on the performance assessment of Fangcang shelter hospitals. This study evaluated the construction efficiency, facility allocation, and indoor environmental quality (IEQ) of 115 Fangcang shelter hospitals in Shanghai. Based on the Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) model, 51,040 social media reviews were processed to evaluate the prevalence of IEQ complaints. The results show that Fangcang shelter hospitals renovated from exhibition halls have the fastest median construction speed (58.2 bed/h), closely followed by office buildings (41.7 bed/h), while containers were the slowest (9.1 bed/h). Notably, there is a power function relationship between the bed capacity and construction speed (R2 = 0.81), indicating a scale effect. As for the indoor environment, toilet comfort issues comprise 31.2 % of the total complaints, followed by complaints about acoustics (22.8 %), hygiene (12.0 %), and thermal (11.2 %). Container-built Fangcang shelter hospitals face significant challenges to the acoustic (40 %) and thermal (15 %) environment, while renovated facilities encounter more problems with toilet facilities and privacy. We also found that the proportion of indoor air quality (IAQ) issues increases as the average bed area decreases across facilities renovated from factories, exhibition halls, and office buildings. These findings offer valuable insights into Fangcang shelter hospitals, which can be considered in future planning and spatial optimization of emergency shelters.

Intent to receive flu vaccine and influenza vaccination coverage among health professionals during 2019, 2020 and 2021 campaigns in Côte d’Ivoire

Vaccination of healthcare workers against influenza is a crucial strategy to reduce transmission amongst vulnerable populations, facilitate patient uptake of vaccination, and bolster pandemic preparedness. Globally, vaccination coverage of health workers varied from 10 % to 88 %. Understanding health workers’ knowledge and acceptance of the influenza vaccine, particularly among physicians, is crucial for the fine-tuning and continued success of influenza vaccination campaigns.We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 472 health workers in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, to inform subsequent subnational and national introductions of influenza vaccine and subsequent campaigns targeting health workers in 2019 (14302), 2020 (14872), and 2021 (24473). Using a purposive sample of university hospitals, general hospitals, rural, and urban health facilities, we interviewed a convenience sample of health workers aged 18 years and older. Physicians had the lowest intention to receive the influenza vaccine (58 %), while nurses (78 %) and midwives (76 %) were the most willing. Across all occupations, intention to receive vaccination increased if the vaccine was offered for free or if recommended by the Ministry of Health. 76 % of respondents believed that the influenza vaccine could prevent illness in health workers.Communication strategies, including about the benefits of influenza vaccination, could raise awareness and acceptance among health workers prior to vaccination campaigns. Influenza vaccination coverage rates between 2019 and 2021 were on par with rates of intention to receive vaccination in the 2018 survey; in 2019, 2020, and 2021, coverage among physicians was 73 %, 73 %, and 52 % and coverage among nurses and midwives was 86 %, 86 %, and 74 % respectively.Improving health workers’ knowledge and acceptance of the influenza vaccine, particularly among physicians, is crucial for the continued success of influenza vaccination campaigns.

Evaluating a multifaceted implementation strategy and package of evidence-based interventions based on WHO PEN for people living with HIV and cardiometabolic conditions in Lusaka, Zambia: protocol for the TASKPEN hybrid effectiveness-implementation stepped wedge cluster randomized trial

BackgroundDespite increasing morbidity and mortality from non-communicable diseases (NCD) globally, health systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have limited capacity to address these chronic conditions, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). There is an urgent need, therefore, to respond to NCDs in SSA, beginning by applying lessons learned from the first global response to any chronic disease—HIV—to tackle the leading cardiometabolic killers of people living with HIV (PLHIV). We have developed a feasible and acceptable package of evidence-based interventions and a multi-faceted implementation strategy, known as “TASKPEN,” that has been adapted to the Zambian setting to address hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. The TASKPEN multifaceted implementation strategy focuses on reorganizing service delivery for integrated HIV-NCD care and features task-shifting, practice facilitation, and leveraging HIV platforms for NCD care. We propose a hybrid type II effectiveness-implementation stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial to evaluate the effects of TASKPEN on clinical and implementation outcomes, including dual control of HIV and cardiometabolic NCDs, as well as quality of life, intervention reach, and cost-effectiveness.MethodsThe trial will be conducted in 12 urban health facilities in Lusaka, Zambia over a 30-month period. Clinical outcomes will be assessed via surveys with PLHIV accessing routine HIV services, and a prospective cohort of PLHIV with cardiometabolic comorbidities nested within the larger trial. We will also collect data using mixed methods, including in-depth interviews, questionnaires, focus group discussions, and structured observations, and estimate cost-effectiveness through time-and-motion studies and other costing methods, to understand implementation outcomes according to Proctor’s Outcomes for Implementation Research, the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research, and selected dimensions of RE-AIM.DiscussionFindings from this study will be used to make discrete, actionable, and context-specific recommendations in Zambia and the region for integrating cardiometabolic NCD care into national HIV treatment programs. While the TASKPEN study focuses on cardiometabolic NCDs in PLHIV, the multifaceted implementation strategy studied will be relevant to other NCDs and to people without HIV. It is expected that the trial will generate new insights that enable delivery of high-quality integrated HIV-NCD care, which may improve cardiovascular morbidity and viral suppression for PLHIV in SSA. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05950919).

Starting then stopping: a nationwide register-based study on the magnitude, predictors, and urban-rural patterns of under-vaccination variation across health centers in The Gambia

ABSTRACT Objectives Six million children were under-vaccinated in 2022. Our study aimed to 1) quantify the magnitude of under-vaccination variation between health facilities, 2) assess to which extent individual and health center level factors contributed to the variation, 3) identify individual and health facility factors associated with under-vaccination, and 4), explore rural vs. urban health facility variations. Methods We used data from 61,839 children from The Gambia national routine vaccination register. We cross tabulated under-vaccination status across study variables and fitted two-level random intercept multilevel logistic regression models to measure variance, contribution to the variance, and factors associated with the variance and under-vaccination. Results We found that 7% of the prevalence of under-vaccination was due to variation between health facilities. Thirty-seven percent of the variation was explained by individual and health center variables. The variables explained 36% of the variance in urban and 19% in rural areas. Children who were not vaccinated at 4 months or with delayed history, due for vaccination in the rainy season, and health facilities with very small or large population to health worker ratios had higher under-vaccination odds. Conclusion Our study indicates that one of the pathways to improving vaccination coverage is addressing factors driving under-vaccination inequities between health facilities through urban-rural differentiated strategies.

Neonatal jaundice detection in low-resource Mexican settings: possibilities and barriers for innovation with mobile health

BackgroundNeonatal jaundice is a common condition that can lead to brain damage and disabilities when severe cases go undetected. Low- and middle-income countries often lack accurate methods for detecting neonatal jaundice and rely on visual assessment, resulting in a higher incidence of adverse consequences. Picterus Jaundice Pro (Picterus JP), an easy-to-use and affordable smartphone-based screening device for the condition, has demonstrated higher accuracy than visual assessment in Norwegian, Philippine and Mexican newborns. This study aimed to identify the barriers and facilitators to implementing Picterus JP in public health services in low-income settings in Mexico by exploring the current process of neonatal jaundice detection and stakeholders’ perspectives in that context.MethodsQualitative data collection techniques, including one focus group, 15 semi-structured interviews and four observations, were employed in urban and rural health facilities in Oaxaca, Mexico. The participants included medical doctors, nurses and health administrators. The data were analysed by thematic analysis guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.ResultsThe analysis yielded four main themes: (I) the current state of neonatal care and NNJ detection, (II) the needs and desires for enhancing NNJ detection, (III) the barriers and facilitators to implementing Picterus JP in the health system and (IV) HCWs’ expectations of Picterus JP. The findings identify deficiencies in the current neonatal jaundice detection process and the participants’ desire for a more accurate method. Picterus JP was perceived as easy to use, useful and compatible with the work routine, but barriers to adoption were identified, including internet deficiencies and costs.ConclusionsThe introduction of Picterus JP as a supporting tool to screen for neonatal jaundice is promising but contextual barriers in the setting must be addressed for successful implementation. There is also an opportunity to optimise visual assessment to improve detection of neonatal jaundice.

The Role of Ventriculocisternostomy in the Management of Hydrocephalus in Mali and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Hydrocephaluscontinues to pose significant clinical challenges in neurosurgery. The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of ventriculocisternostomy (VCS) within the provincial city of Kinshasa and Mali to optimize the management of patients afflicted with hydrocephalus. This investigation was hosted at two major urban healthcare facilities: the Initiative Plus Hospital Center, positioned in the bustling metropolis of Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and the Bamako Hospital, Republic of Mali. A prospective, analytical cohort study was executed from December 2022 to June 2023. In the Mali group, seven patients underwent VCS,four patients were treated withVCS and spinalsurgery, and one case was treated with VCS and biopsy. Similarly, in the Kinshasa group, 25 patients underwent VCS, whereas four patients were treated with VCS and spinal surgery. The median hospital stay was eight and 10 days for the Mali and theKinshasa groups, respectively. VCS emerges as a formidable alternative for hydrocephalus management in Mali and DRC, showcasing the potential to markedly ameliorate patient outcomes, economize healthcare expenditures, and fortify the local neurosurgical capacity.

The Development of Elder-Governed Adjuvant Cultural Therapy for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Young People With Mental Health Conditions.

A 10-year review of the 2008 Council of Australian Governments' (COAG) Close the Gap Strategy identified the lack of involvement of Indigenous people in developing policies as a key reason health disparities persist. It also posits that disconnection from Country and culture have been crucial factors. Physical and mental health cannot be separated from spiritual health and well-being amongst Indigenous Australians. This article describes the co-development of a cultural enrichment research study with Indigenous Elders, health service leaders, and community members that places culture at the centre of care to augment traditional Western mental health management. The study has been overseen and nurtured from its inception by a governance board of Traditional Custodian Elders and an Advisory Group of Indigenous health workers. Qualitative data were collected through community 'zoom-yarns' between an Indigenous research assistant and 44 community members during COVID-19 lockdowns. These yarns were analysed through an innovative, constructivist, multi-perspectival discursive grounded theory method. Findings have led to an Elder-governed adjuvant cultural therapy which is currently being trialled and will be evaluated using the same multi-perspectival discursive grounded theory research methodology. One third of all Indigenous Australians now live in capital cities, so developing models to bring culture and Country into urban health facilities are becoming increasingly important. The Indigenous-led research approach outlined in this paper suggests a model for engaging Indigenous communities that mainly distrust Western research and have been failed by Western mental health care. It has the potential to shape future policy.

Exploring experiences of HIV care to optimize patient-centred care in Conakry, Guinea: a qualitative study.

Studies on the organisation of care and the power dynamic between providers and patients with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa are rare. This study aims to describe the patient-provider relationship and explore the challenges to optimal and patient-centred care for HIV patients. This was a qualitative exploratory descriptive study using in-depth individual interviews and focus group discussions. In total, 17 individual interviews and 5 focus group discussions were conducted. This was conducted in four urban health facilities in Conakry, the capital of Guinea. Three group of participants were included in this study namely patients with HIV; health providers including facilities and services managers; and psychosocial counsellors. Psychosocial counsellors provide emotional and psychosocial support to HIV patients. Their role in the organization care in Guinea is new and they contribute to strengthening adherence of patients with HIV to ARV treatment. Patients with HIV, health providers, and psychosocial counsellors have a positive perception of the patient-provider relationship. This relationship was characterized essentially by maintaining confidentiality of HIV status disclosure, caring attitudes towards patients (being available, adjusting locations for accessing ART, based on patients' preferences), and participating in HIV patient's social life. However, scolding and miscommunication about the interpretation of viral load tests were reported. The shortage of human resources, low salaries of health staff, poor infrastructure, and the financial burden borne by patients with HIV impede the implementation of optimal patient-centred care. Integrating psychosocial counsellors in HIV care organization, improving access to ARV, infrastructure, increasing human resources, and removing the financial burden for HIV patients are needed to optimal patient-centred care in Guinea.

Modelling the adverse impacts of urbanization on human health

Abstract Urbanization has been a growing trend for decades, but the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has accelerated this trend in several ways. In many countries, the pandemic has prompted significant investments in urban health infrastructure, including hospitals, clinics, and public health facilities. Also, there are many studies suggesting that COVID-19, urbanization, and chronic diseases are interconnected in several ways, and addressing one aspect requires a comprehensive approach that considers the interconnectedness of these factors. To date, there are no studies depicting COVID-19 as a cause of emerging chronic diseases within the urban population. To address this sensitive issue, we propose a mathematical model in which we divide the total human population into three compartments: susceptible, diseased, and recovered. We have obtained the equilibrium points of the model and the conditions for their local stabilities. A suitable Lyapunov function has been used to derive the condition for the global stability of the nontrivial equilibrium point. A detailed numerical simulation of the model has been carried out, which is followed by sensitivity analysis of the model system.

Prevalence of Household Food Security and Health-related Quality of Life: Special Consideration on the Expectant Mothers in Punjab

Household food security (HFS) affects the quality and adequacy of nutrition and can significantly impact an individual’s health. The study aims to examine the association between HFS and maternal quality of life in Punjab. The cross-sectional study was conducted in the northern Indian state of Punjab from January to March 2021 on 384 expectant mothers. The urban health facilities were chosen using the random cluster selection approach from geographical locations in Punjab, India. A well-structured questionnaire was adapted from HFS and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) that was used to collect the data. Descriptive statistics were used to investigate the socioeconomic status and food security. HFS and HR-QOL relationship was studied using multilinear regression. The results revealed that 43.9% of expectant women experienced food insecurity. Mean (±SD) scores for the domains of ‘social performance’ (84.4 ± 16.6) and ‘role limitation due to physical reasons’ (64.5 ± 35.5) were the highest in pregnant women. Quality of life scores for expectant mothers with food insecurity were the lowest. Due to physical reasons, role constraint scored the weakest for pregnant women with food insecurity (64.3 ± 45.5, 69.1 ± 43.2 and 49.3 ± 57.2, respectively, for mild, moderate and severe food insecurity). High-risk pregnant women screened for HFS in their primary prenatal care can increase their diet quality and quantity. Additionally, there is a need for multi-level actions such as policy development, resource allocation and proper amenities to ensure expectant mothers have access to nutritious food.

Exploring the Role of Medical Social Workers in Teaching and Non-Teaching Hospitals: A Study on the Potential Establishment of a Department of Medical Social Work

Medical social work plays a pivotal role in ensuring comprehensive and quality healthcare delivery, particularly in hospital settings. This paper delineates the multifaceted responsibilities undertaken by medical social workers, encompassing ethical treatment, transparency in hospital management, and advocacy for the welfare of vulnerable patients. It examines the historical evolution of medical social work in India, tracing its roots to the pioneering efforts of institutions like the Dorabji Tata Graduate School of Social Work. Furthermore, it elucidates the guidelines set forth by the Medical Council of India, emphasizing the critical need for medical social workers in both rural and urban healthcare facilities. In exploring the possibility of establishing dedicated departments for medical social work, this paper proposes a complementary framework to the existing department of community medicine. By delineating the roles and responsibilities of medical social workers in rural and urban health training centers, it underscores their significance in addressing community health determinants and facilitating access to essential services. It also highlights the potential for medical social workers to contribute as multidisciplinary team members across various hospital departments, thereby amplifying their impact on patient care and rehabilitation processes. In conclusion, the paper underscores the imperative of recognizing and strengthening the role of medical social workers in healthcare delivery systems. By fostering greater awareness, professional development, and institutional support, we can harness the full potential of medical social work to promote health equity and social justice for all individuals.

Human resources challenges in the management of diabetes and hypertension in Mozambique.

The major burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) globally occurs in low-and middle-income countries, where this trend is expected to increase dramatically over the coming years. The resultant change in demand for health care will imply significant adaptation in how NCD services are provided. This study aimed to explore self-reported training and competencies of healthcare providers, and the barriers they face in NCD services provision. A qualitative design was used to conduct this study. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with government officials within the Mozambican Ministry of Health, district health authorities, health facility managers, and health providers at urban and rural health facilities of Maputo, in Mozambique. The data was then analyzed under three domains: provider´s capacity building, health system structuring, and policy. A total of 24 interviews of the 26 planed with managers and healthcare providers at national, district, and health facility levels were completed. The domains analyzed enabled the identification and description of three themes. First, the majority of health training courses in Mozambique are oriented towards infectious diseases. Therefore, healthcare workers perceive that they need to consolidate and broaden their NCD-related knowledge or else have access to NCD-related in-service training to improve their capacity to manage patients with NCDs. Second, poor availability of diagnostic equipment, tools, supplies, and related medicines were identified as barriers to appropriate NCD care and management. Finally, insufficient NCD financing reflects the low level of prioritization felt by managers and healthcare providers. There is a gap in human, financial, and material resources to respond to the country's health needs, which is more significant for NCDs as they currently compete against major infectious disease programming, which is better funded by external partners. Healthcare workers at the primary health care level of Mozambique's health system are inadequately skilled to provide NCD care and they lack the diagnostic equipment and tools to adequately provide such care. Any increase in global and national responses to the NCD challenge must include investments in human resources and appropriate equipment.

Barriers to healthcare data quality and recommendations in public health facilities in Dire Dawa city administration, eastern Ethiopia: a qualitative study.

Maintaining good quality of healthcare data at various levels is a critical challenge in developing countries. The barriers to healthcare data quality remain largely unexplored in eastern Ethiopia. This study aimed to assess the barriers to quality of healthcare data in urban public health facilities in the Dire Dawa city administration from 7 April to 7 May 2019. An institutional-based qualitative exploratory approach was used among 17 purposefully selected key informants. In-depth interviews were inductively coded using the ATLAS.ti 7.5.4 version software. Inductive analysis was used by semantically analyzing the explicit content of the data to determine our themes. Several key themes and subthemes with different barriers, some of which are mutually non-exclusive, were identified. These include: Organizational Barriers: Lack of an adequate health management information system and data clerk staff, poor management commitment, lack of post-training follow-up, work overload, frequent duty rotation, lack of incentives for good performers, lack of targeted feedback, and poor culture of information use. Behavioral/Individual Barriers: Gaps in the skill of managers and health professionals, lack of adequate awareness of each indicator and its definitions, inadequate educational competence, lack of feeling of ownership, poor commitment, lack of daily tallying, and lack of value for data. Technical Barriers: Lack of a standard form, diverse and too many data entry formats, manual data collection, shortage of supplies, failure to repair system break down in a timely manner, interruption in electricity and network, delay in digitizing health information systems, lack of post-training follow-up, and inadequate supervision. External Barriers: Poor collaboration between stakeholders, dependence on the software program of non-governmental organizations, and very hot weather conditions. Diverse and complex barriers to maintenance of data quality were identified. Developing standardized health management information system implementation plans, providing advanced supervisory-level training, supportive supervision, and site-level mentorship may be very effective in identifying and resolving bottleneck data quality issues. Healthcare managers should understand the imperative of data quality and accept responsibility for its improvement and maintenance. Interventions targeted only at supplies will not fully overcome limitations to data quality. Motivation of staff and recognition of best performance can motivate others and can create cooperation among staff.
