Understanding the role of ‘software’ in health system capacity for non-communicable disease response
Research on health system capacity to manage non-communicable diseases (NCDs) has largely focused on ‘system hardware’ such as infrastructure, workforce, and commodities. However, this overlooks the critical role of ‘system software’ elements, such as relationships, norms, and power, and the complex adaptive nature of health systems. This study aimed to explore how health system hardware and software elements interact to shape the capacity of the…
Understanding what factors influence community health worker involvement in hypertension service delivery in Kenya
The systematic involvement of community health workers (CHWs) in hypertension management can improve outcomes and achieve blood pressure control. However, much of this evidence is from effectiveness trials conducted under ideal conditions, with little evidence from programmes operating in routine conditions. In Kenya, recent policy changes have expanded CHW roles to routinely incorporate non-communicable disease (including hypertension) service d…
Implementing community-based interventions for the management of chronic conditions in low- and middle-income countries
The rising prevalence of chronic diseases in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) poses significant challenges to already overburdened health systems. Community-based interventions are recognised as effective strategies for managing these conditions. However, implementing such interventions faces barriers that can hinder their effectiveness. This scoping review aims to assess qualitative studies examining barriers and facilitators to implemen…
Access to hypertension services and health-seeking experiences in rural Coastal Kenya
Globally, hypertension causes 10.8 million deaths annually. However, in Kenya, like in other low-and middle-income countries, access to hypertension care remains limited and inequitable. Understanding patients’ journeys in accessing care along the care cascade is critical to inform patient-centred care and policy improvements. This study aimed to explore patient experiences in accessing primary care services for hypertension along the care cascad…
Malaria Prevention for Pregnant Women and Under-Five Children in 10 Sub-Saharan Africa Countries
To ensure progress toward universal health coverage, malaria prevention programs must prioritize vulnerable populations and be continuously evaluated
Evaluating the effectiveness of the National Health Insurance Fund in providing financial protection to households with hypertension and diabetes patients in Kenya
We did not find strong evidence that the NHIF national scheme is effective in providing financial risk protection to households with individuals living with hypertension and/diabetes in Kenya. This could partly be explained by the low depth of cover of the NHIF national scheme, and the high attrition rate. To enhance NHIF effectiveness, there is a need to revise the NHIF benefit package to include essential hypertension and/diabetes services, rev…
A bibliometric analysis of Covid-19 research in Africa
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unprecedented global research effort to build a body of knowledge that can inform mitigation strategies. We carried out a bibliometric analysis to describe the COVID-19 research output in Africa in terms of setting, study design, research themes and author affiliation. METHODS: We searched for articles published between 1 December 2019 and 3 January 2021 from various databases including PubMed, Afri…
We are called the et cetera”
Pro-poor health financing reforms improved access to care for the poor to some extent. However, to enhance the effectiveness of pro-poor reforms and to ensure that the poor in Kenya benefit fully from them, there is a need to address barriers to healthcare seeking across all access dimensions
