Bringing severe non-communicable disease care to district-level hospitals in Nepal
Severe non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), sickle cell disease (SCD), thalassaemia and congenital heart conditions are prevalent in low-resource settings but remain largely unaddressed in the primary care system. Nepal’s Package of Essential NCD Interventions-Plus (PEN-Plus) initiative demonstrates how peripheral provincial hospitals (former district hospitals) can effectively deliver decentralised, equitable…
Facility readiness for decentralized Package of Essential Noncommunicable Disease Interventions-Plus (PEN-Plus) care in nine lower-income countries
Severe chronic noncommunicable diseases (SC-NCDs) are important causes of avoidable disease burden in low- and lower-middle income countries (LLMICs) where care is often available only at tertiary, urban facilities. The Package of Essential Noncommunicable Disease Interventions – Plus (PEN-Plus) strategy aims to address gaps in access to care for SC-NCDs by integrating and decentralizing care. This study aims to assess baseline readiness of 16 fa…
Measuring Children’s Knowledge of Acute Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Heart Disease
Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) and rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remain significant public health challenges in low- and middle-income countries, including Nepal. This study aimed to develop and validate a tool to assess children's knowledge of ARF and RHD. A 14-item multiple-choice questionnaire was developed through expert consultation and a systematic translation and back-translation process. Content validity was evaluated by 10 experts using ite…
Covid-19 control strategies and intervention effects in resource limited settings
Introduction Many countries with weaker health systems are struggling to put together a coherent strategy against the COVID-19 epidemic. We explored COVID-19 control strategies that could offer the greatest benefit in resource limited settings. Methods Using an age-structured SEIR model, we explored the effects of COVID-19 control interventions–a lockdown, physical distancing measures, and active case finding (testing and isolation, contact traci…
