Readiness to Provide Neonatal Care Services in 208 Ethiopian Hospitals Prior to Implementation of the Saving Little Lives Program
Introduction: Despite improved health service accessibility, neonatal mortality in Ethiopia remains high at 33 per 1000 live births. Thus, improving health facilities’ readiness across infrastructure, basic amenities, equipment, medications, laboratory services, Kangaroo Mother Care, infection prevention and control, staffing, and guidelines availability is critical for improving the quality of neonatal care and survival. Objective: The aim of th…
Saving Little Lives Minimum Care Package Interventions in 290 Public Health Facilities in Ethiopia
A non-randomized stepped-wedge trial will be conducted to evaluate the impact of implementing the SLL MCP interventions. Quantitative evaluation data will be collected from 36 primary hospitals, selected from 206 primary hospitals across four regions, receiving the interventions. An independent evaluation research assistant will be deployed in each of the hospitals to collect data using Open Data Kit (ODK) through interviewing mothers before disc…
Treatment-seeking practices of caregivers for children aged less than five years old with diarrhoea in low- and middle-income countries
Incidence of diarrhoeal disease among children aged less than five years in low- and middle-income countries
Prevalence of diarrhoea and treatment-seeking practices among children <2 years of age in the Birhan cohort, Ethiopia, 2018–19
Background: Estimating the proportion of children with diarrhoea and those who are taken in as inpatients or outpatients is important for policy planning, resource allocation, and to evaluate the effectiveness of diarrhoea prevention and control interventions. We aimed to estimate the proportion of children <2 years of age with diarrhoea, explore their treatment-seeking practices, and identify factors associated with both diarrhoea and treatment …
Scaling up Kangaroo Mother Care in Ethiopia and India
OBJECTIVES: Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC), prolonged skin-to-skin care of the low birth weight baby with the mother plus exclusive breastfeeding reduces neonatal mortality. Global KMC coverage is low. This study was conducted to develop and evaluate context-adapted implementation models to achieve improved coverage. DESIGN: This study used mixed-methods applying implementation science to develop an adaptable strategy to improve implementation. Forma…
Mental health problems and socioeconomic disadvantage
Households with a member who had either SMD or depression were socioeconomically disadvantaged compared to the general population. Moreover, higher disability was associated with worse socio-economic disadvantage. Prospective studies are needed to determine the direction of association. This study indicates a need to consider households of people with SMD or depression as a vulnerable group requiring economic support alongside access to evidence-…
Catastrophic health expenditure and impoverishment in households of persons with depression
Households of people with depression and high disability were more likely to face catastrophic expenditures and impoverishment from OOP payments. Financial protection interventions through prepayment schemes, exemptions and fee waiver strategies need to target households of persons with depression
Eliciting preferences for social health insurance in Ethiopia
As low-income countries are initiating health insurance schemes, Ethiopia is also planning to move away from out-of-pocket private payments to health insurance. The success of such a policy depends on understanding and predicting preferences of potential enrolees. This is because a scarce health care budget forces providers and consumers to make trade-offs between potential benefits within a health insurance. An assessment of preferences of poten…
Malaria-Related Health-Seeking Behaviour and Challenges for Care Providers in Rural Ethiopia
A range of activities are currently underway to improve access to malaria prevention and control interventions. As disease control strategies change over time, it is crucial to understand the health-seeking behaviour and the local socio-cultural context in which the changes in interventions operate. This paper reflects on how people in an area of seasonal malaria perceive the causes and transmission of the disease, and what prevention and treatme…
