  • Organisational factors associated with implementing action plans informed by routine health information system data in Mozambique

    Open AccessNami Kawakyu, Bradley H Wagenaar et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    INTRODUCTION: Routine health information system (RHIS) data use remains limited in many low- and middle-income countries, with little evidence on factors that promote or hinder its use for improving health facility performance. This study examined patterns of translating RHIS data into action and explored organisational factors associated with successful implementation. METHODS: Data come from a sample of 36 facilities in Mozambique that particip…

  • Can audit and feedback improve health service readiness and delivery outcomes in a low-resource setting? Effectiveness results of the Ideas strategy from central Mozambique

    Open AccessAneth Dinis, Orvalho Augusto et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Limited evidence exists on audit and feedback(A&F) in low-resource contexts. We tested the Integrated District Evidence-to-Action (IDEAs), a multicomponent A&F strategy in Mozambique’s maternal and child health (MCH) services. IDEAs include A&F meetings, readiness assessments, and facility support. We report the effectiveness results. IDEAs were implemented in 2016–2020 across two provinces, 12 districts, and 154 primary health facilities in Moza…

  • Determinants of translating routine health information system data into action in Mozambique

    Open AccessNami Kawakyu, Celso Inguane et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2024

    INTRODUCTION: Routine health information systems (RHISs) are an essential source of data to inform decisions and actions around health facility performance, but RHIS data use is often limited in low and middle-income country contexts. Determinants that influence RHIS data-informed decisions and actions are not well understood, and few studies have explored the relationship between RHIS data-informed decisions and actions. METHODS: This qualitativ…

  • Covid-19-related healthcare impacts

    Open AccessIvan Manhiça, Orvalho Augusto et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    INTRODUCTION: Currently, COVID-19 dominates the public health agenda and poses a permanent threat, leading to health systems' exhaustion and unprecedented service disruption. Primary healthcare services, including tuberculosis services, are at increased risk of facing severe disruptions, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries. Indeed, corroborating model-based forecasts, there is increasing evidence of the COVID-19 pandemic's nega…

  • Projecting the lives saved by continuing the historical scale-up of child and maternal health interventions in Mozambique until 2030

    Open AccessJosé Maiane Júnior, Réka Maulide Cane et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2019

    BACKGROUND: Over the past 20 years, Mozambique has achieved substantial reductions in maternal, neonatal, and child mortality. However, mortality rates are still high, and to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for maternal and child health, further gains are needed. One technique that can guide policy makers to more effectively allocate health resources is to model the coverage increases and lives saved that would be achieved if tre…

  • Using routine health information systems for well-designed health evaluations in low- and middle-income countries

    Open AccessBradley H Wagenaar, Kenneth Sherr et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2016Citada por: 5Referencias: 35

    Routine health information systems (RHISs) are in place in nearly every country and provide routinely collected full-coverage records on all levels of health system service delivery. However, these rich sources of data are regularly overlooked for evaluating causal effects of health programmes due to concerns regarding completeness, timeliness, representativeness and accuracy. Using Mozambique's national RHIS (Módulo Básico) as an illustrative ex…
