Improving health professionals’ capacity to respond to the climate crisis in Africa
Introduction The fragile health systems in Africa worsen climate-related health impacts, making capacity building essential to strengthen adaptation and resilience. The Africa Climate and Health Responders Course was developed to address the urgent need for climate and health education among African health professionals. Organized by the Global Consortium on Climate and Health Education (GCCHE) in collaboration with ASPHA, Africa CDC, WHO AFRO, P…
Factors associated with adequate antenatal care use among women of childbearing age in Burkina Faso
Introduction: Antenatal care (ANC) is a critical determinant of maternal and infant wellbeing and is a reliable method for reducing maternal and infant mortality. Antenatal care use is considered adequate when the first ANC takes place in the first trimester and the woman completes at least four ANC in accordance with WHO recommendations during her pregnancy. Despite the increasing of the proportion of women having completed at least four ANC in …
Evolution of the nutritional status and factors associated with undernutrition in children under five of age between 2014 and 2017 in 24 health districts of Burkina Faso
The prevalences of undernutrition in children under five years of age appeared to decrease over the last decade in Burkina Faso. However, the country is now facing new health and security challenges that could threaten this progress. Therefore, it is essential to monitor the evolution of the situation within this specific context. We aimed to assess trends in undernutrition among children under 5 years of age, as well as the factors associated wi…
Factors associated with positive human papillomavirus (HPV) test results in cervical precancer screening
These results call for health actions through the reinforcement for behavioral change mainly about sexually-transmitted-infections, and for the raising awareness of the population for the screening related to the precancerous lesions and HIV
Nutritional status of children under five years and associated factors in 24 districts of Burkina Faso
Malnutrition in children is a serious health problem, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, with heavy socioeconomic burdens. The prevalence of stunting remains high in Burkina Faso. There is a need to further investigate undernutrition and identify the major factors contributing to its persistence. We aimed to assess the nutritional status of children aged under five years and the associated factors of undernutrition in Burkina Faso. We conducted a …
Mothers' Preventive Health Care Practices and Children's Survival in Burkina Faso
The significant reduction in the level of child mortality in both developed and developing countries over recent decades has led to an improvement in children's health. The implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of the health programs needed to reduce child mortality require determination and an understanding of the factors responsible for this reduction. This study investigated factors that have contributed to the recent improvement in the s…
Une application de la méthode d’analyse en groupe en contexte urbain burkinabé
En Afrique subsaharienne, les méthodes qualitatives, de plus en plus utilisées, privilégient l’entretien individuel, le focus group, le récit de vie et l’observation. La méthode d’analyse en groupe, née en Europe, y a été récemment mise en œuvre. L’objet de cet article est de documenter une expérience d’application de cette méthode en contexte urbain burkinabè à travers l’analyse d’un récit portant sur la démence d’une personne âgée. Concrètement…
Street-level workers’ inadequate knowledge and application of exemption policies in Burkina Faso jeopardize the achievement of universal health coverage
This quantitative study confirmed earlier qualitative results on the importance of training and informing health workers and monitoring the measures targeting equity, to ensure compliance with government directives. The local context (e.g., hierarchy, health system, interventions) and the ideas that street-level workers have about the policy instruments can influence their effective implementation. Methods for remunerating health workers and heal…
The key actors maintaining elders in functional autonomy in Bobo-Dioulasso (Burkina Faso)
It is likely that the absence of formal care and support structure likely shortens the lifespan of severely disabled older people. Stakeholders have not yet looked at this possibility. The stakeholders should seriously think about: 1) how to establish the third level of actors who can fulfill the needs to maintain elders in functional autonomy that are not satisfied by others (family members or the older individuals themselves), and 2) how to rei…
