Exploring healthcare facilities’ readiness for standard precautions in infection prevention and control
Background: Despite the significant morbidity and mortality caused by healthcare-associated infections worldwide, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), there is a lack of understanding of the readiness to apply standard precautions for infection prevention and control (IPC) in healthcare facilities across different LMICs. Methods: We analysed nationally representative health system data from the Service Provision Assessment surv…
Physicians’ Intentions to Recommend Influenza Vaccine
Physicians' influenza vaccine recommendations in Bangladesh are suboptimal, influenced by gender, marital status, and attitudes. Targeted educational interventions addressing attitudinal barriers and leveraging institutional support could improve recommendation practices
Cost-effectiveness of seasonal influenza vaccination in WHO-defined high-risk populations in Bangladesh
Background: Bangladesh carries a substantial health and economic burden of seasonal influenza, particularly among the World Health Organization (WHO)-defined high-risk populations. We implemented a modelling study to determine the cost-effectiveness of influenza vaccination in each of five high-risk groups (pregnant women, children under five years of age, adults with underlying health conditions, older adults (≥60 years), and healthcare personne…
Well-Being, Loneliness, and Quality of Relationships Before and During the Covid-19 Pandemic in Botswana
This paper explored the determinants of well-being, quality of relationships (QOR), and loneliness among people of Botswana before and during the novel COVID-19 pandemic. It also examined whether there were significant differences between participants’ well-being, loneliness, and QOR before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors associated with the well-being, loneliness, and QOR of the Botswana population before and during the COVID-19 pandem…
Acceptability, cost-effectiveness, and capacity of a facility-based seasonal influenza vaccination among high-risk groups
The Clinicaltrials.gov registration number is NCT05996549. The registration for the protocol version 2.0 took place in August 2023, with the initial participant being enrolled in March 2022
Depression, anxiety, stress, and fear of Covid-19 among Bangladeshi medical students during the first wave of the pandemic
A substantial proportion of medical students experienced mental health difficulties in Bangladesh. Appropriate interventions should be designed, and adequate support should be provided to the medical students to protect their mental health and wellbeing, considering their potential impact on the future health system in a low-resource setting like Bangladesh
The Prevalence and Associated Factors of Depressive Symptoms Among Medical Students in Bangladesh During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Background: Whilst very limited studies have demonstrated a correlation between the COVID-19 pandemic and depressive symptoms amongst Bangladeshi medical students, the prevalence and associated factors of depressive symptoms as measured by the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) remains widely unknown. Objective: The study aimed to investigate the prevalence and factors associated with depression symptoms among Bangladeshi medical students durin…
Seasonal influenza vaccine uptake among healthcare workers in tertiary care hospitals, Bangladesh
Clinicaltrials.gov NCT05521763. Version 2.0 was registered in September 2022, and the first participant enrolled in March 2022. Retrospectively registered
Antibiotic use for acute respiratory infections among under-5 children in Bangladesh
INTRODUCTION: Despite acute respiratory infections (ARIs) being the single largest reason for antibiotic use in under-5 children in Bangladesh, the prevalence of antibiotic use in the community for an ARI episode and factors associated with antibiotic use in this age group are unknown. METHODS: We analysed nationally representative, population-based, household survey data from the Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey 2014 to determine the pre…
