Translation and Adaptation of the Brief Intervention Adherence Scale for the Tanzanian Culture
Background: Harmful and hazardous alcohol use poses significant health risks globally.Brief interventions (BI) have shown promise in reducing hazardous alcohol use, but fidelity to the protocol needs to be ensured, especially in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) like Tanzania.Aims: Our study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Tanzanian-Swahili version of BI adherence scale (BAS) adapted to Tanzanian culture.Methods: A psyc…
Roadblocks and solutions to planning surgical care for a billion Indians
Feasibility of SMS booster for alcohol reduction in injury patients in Tanzania
Alcohol use is associated with 3 million annual deaths globally. Harmful alcohol use, which is associated with a high burden of disease in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), often increases the probability of traumatic injury. Treatments for harmful alcohol use in LMICs, such as Tanzania, lack trained personnel and adequate infrastructure. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using SMS boosters to augment a hospital based…
Preventing Alcohol-Related Harm in East Africa
Our results demonstrate substantial variability in the readiness to address alcohol-related harm across East Africa. The highest capacity was noted for knowledge towards alcohol prevention, institutional links, and legislative mandates and policies. However, important gaps were noted in terms of attitudes towards alcohol prevention, the will to address the problem, as well as material, human, and informal resources, which need to be urgently addr…
The Burden of Hypertension and Diabetes in an Emergency Department in Northern Tanzania
The burden of hypertension and diabetes in a Tanzanian ED is high, and the ED may serve as an opportune location for case identification and linkage-to-care interventions. Given the large proportion of Africans with undiagnosed hypertension and diabetes, an ED-based screening program would likely identify many new cases of these diseases. The high burden of hypertension- and diabetes-related hospitalizations highlights the urgent need for improve…
Addressing geographic access barriers to emergency care services
There is a spatial disequilibrium within the country with prominent gaps in the health care network for emergency services. Taking this challenge into consideration, small hospitals could be a possible solution and foster equity in access to emergency and surgical care. However more investments in are necessary to improve small hospitals capabilities to fill this gap
The epidemiology of road traffic injury hotspots in Kigali, Rwanda from police data
Despite significant headway by the government in RTC prevention, there continue to be high rates of RTIs in Rwanda, specifically with young males and a vulnerable road user population, such as pedestrians and motorcycle users. Improvements in police data and reporting by laypersons could prove valuable for further geographic information system analysis and efforts towards crash prevention and targeting education to motorcycle taxis could help red…
High road utilizers surveys compared to police data for road traffic crash hotspot localization in Rwanda and Sri Lanka
Surveys to locate RTC hotspots have high sensitivity and specificity compared to police data. Therefore, surveys can be a viable, inexpensive, and rapid alternative to the use of police data in LMIC
