Stillbirth and newborn data quality and use and related input and process factors
Background: The reduction of preventable newborn deaths in low- and middle-income countries is a global priority. The availability of high-quality newborn and stillbirth data is essential for shaping action-oriented policies and interventions towards resolving these challenges. Using a mixed-methods approach, we evaluated the input and process factors hindering data quality and use in Uganda. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study from Nov…
Availability and the quality of key newborn data within routine health facility data
Background: With declining funding for population-based household surveys, routine health facility data offer a promising alternative for tracking newborn health and service quality. However, their utility depends on data quality. We assessed the quality of ten data elements within routine health information systems in the Central African Republic (CAR), Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda, seven of which align with the Every Newborn Action Plan core …
Subacute Cardiac Tamponade Due to Tuberculous Pericarditis Diagnosed by Urine Lipoarabinomannan Assay in a Immunocompetent Patient in Oyam District, Uganda
Our case highlights the potential usefulness of a LF-LAM-based diagnostic approach, suggesting that, in low-resource settings, this test might be used as part of routine diagnostic workup in patients with pericardial disease or suspected extra-pulmonary tuberculosis
Impact of socio-economic factors on Tuberculosis treatment outcomes in north-eastern Uganda
This study confirmed that low socio-economic status is associated with poor TB treatment outcomes emphasizing the need for multi- and cross-sectoral approaches and socio-economic enablers to optimise TB care
Households experiencing catastrophic costs due to tuberculosis in Uganda
Despite free health care in public health facilities, over half of Ugandan TB affected households experience catastrophic costs. Roll out of social protection interventions like TB assistance programs, insurance schemes, and enforcement of legislation related to social protection through multi-sectoral action plans with central NTP involvement would palliate these costs
