Effect of Household Dynamics on Infant Mortality in the Kassena_Nankana Districts of Rural Northern Ghana, 1999–2018
Assessing the effectiveness of malaria interventions at the regional level in Ghana using a mathematical modelling application
Supporting malaria control with interfaced applications of mathematical models that enables investigating effectiveness of various interventions as well as their cost implications could be useful. Through their usage for planning, these applications may improve the prospects of attaining various set targets such as those of the National Strategic Plan policies for malaria control in Ghana. A malaria model was adapted and used for simulating the i…
Towards malaria control and elimination in Ghana
Ghana is classified as being in the malaria control phase, according to the global malaria elimination program. With many years of policy development and control interventions, malaria specific mortality among children less than 5 years old has declined from 14.4% in 2000 to 0.6% in 2012. However, the same level of success has not been achieved with malaria morbidity. The recently adopted 2015-2020 Ghana strategic action plan aims to reduce the b…
Socio-demographic and environmental determinants of infectious disease morbidity in children under 5 years in Ghana
BACKGROUND: Globally, diarrhoea and acute respiratory infections (ARIs) have been identified as major threats to child survival. In Ghana, the two conditions are among the top three causes of morbidity and mortality among children under 5 years. An in-depth analysis of the factors associated with these two diseases is warranted, because of their high degree of fatality and also it provides a basis for intervention planning. OBJECTIVES: To investi…
Impact of an electronic clinical decision support system on workflow in antenatal care
BACKGROUND: The implementation of new technology can interrupt established workflows in health care settings. The Quality of Maternal Care (QUALMAT) project has introduced an electronic clinical decision support system (eCDSS) for antenatal care (ANC) and delivery in rural primary health care facilities in Africa. OBJECTIVE: This study was carried out to investigate the influence of the QUALMAT eCDSS on the workflow of health care workers in rura…
Does the national health insurance scheme in Ghana reduce household cost of treating malaria in the Kassena-Nankana districts
INTRODUCTION: The Government of Ghana introduced the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) in 2003 to replace out-of-pocket (OOP) payment for health services with the inherent aim of reducing the direct cost of treating illness to households. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of the NHIS in reducing cost of treating malaria to households in the Kassena-Nankana districts of northern Ghana. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional survey between Oc…
A time series analysis of weather variables and all-cause mortality in the Kasena-Nankana Districts of Northern Ghana, 1995–2010
INTRODUCTION: Climate and weather variability can have significant health consequences of increased morbidity and mortality. However, today the impact of climate and weather variability, and consequentially, of climate change on population health in sub-Saharan Africa is not well understood. In this study, we assessed the association of daily temperature and precipitation with daily mortality by age and sex groups in Northern Ghana. METHODS: We a…
