Fostering deliberation and action in context
Strengthening health systems through workforce development is central to combating health crises and inequalities in some of the world's poorest countries and is a key objective for implementation research (IR). Workforce development programmes often include blended and online modalities, offering the means to reach relevant communities at scale, removing barriers in accessing lifelong learning opportunities. However, approaches that privilege is…
A nationwide cross-sectional review of in-hospital hepatitis B virus testing and disease burden estimation in Ghana, 2016 - 2021
Ghana remains a country with high HBV burden. There is an unequal distribution, with higher HBsAg seroprevalence in the north of the country. Furthermore, PCR testing is not widely available outside of large teaching hospitals, which limits diagnostic work-up. Hepatitis reporting systems and registers should be improved to facilitate data capture of indicators and standardised across the country to allow for comparability. Furthermore, where gain…
Self-Medication and Antimicrobial Resistance
Objectives: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest challenges facing mankind. Inappropriate uses of antibiotics including self-medication promote the increase and spread of AMR. Self-medication has not been well-studied among students. This study was undertaken to determine students of healthcare programmes self-medication practices and attitudes in relation to AMR. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey that used …
