Estimated cost-savings from integrated care for HIV, diabetes and hypertension in sub-Saharan Africa
Background In a cluster-randomised trial in Uganda and Tanzania, we showed that integrated management, compared with standard vertical care, could achieve a high standard of care for diabetes and hypertension without adversely affecting outcomes for HIV. However, evidence on the value for money of integrated care is needed to inform policy.Objective Our economic evaluation aimed to establish the value for money of integrated care compared with ve…
Patient reported experience measures on HIV viral load testing at public health facilities in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
While viral load (VL) testing is critical to effective treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), little is known about patients’ experiences with, and barriers to VL-testing in the context of HIV infection. We assessed patient reported experience measures (PREMs) on VL-testing in public HIV clinics in Tanzania. In a cross-sectional convergent mixed method study, we collected information on VL test related PREMs, clinical and sociodemograph…
Scaling up integrated care for HIV and other chronic conditions in routine health care settings in sub-Saharan Africa
Evidence on the benefits of integrated care remains limited. More robust evidence will be essential to guide scale-up beyond research sites
Implementation of WHO guidelines on management of advanced HIV disease and its impact among TB co-infected patients in Tanzania
Implementation of the TB related WHO packages of care for AHD is very low. Except for TB diagnosis, other parameters did not improve with the introduction of the guidelines. More research is recommended to ascertain the effectiveness of guidelines as well as an understanding of the mechanisms involved
Ethical issues in intervention studies on the prevention and management of diabetes and hypertension in sub-Saharan Africa
Conducting intervention studies in Africa, where medicines supply for chronic conditions is inequitable and patchy, raises major ethical issues. \n \nHere we discuss what should the ethical approach be for a research programme in terms of provision of a steady and sustainable supply of medicines for patients with diabetes and hypertension
