Aligning neonatal sepsis triage diagnostics with WHO target product profiles in low- and middle-income countries
Neonatal sepsis is a leading cause of infant morbidity and mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), yet despite this, progress in the development and implementation of effective diagnostics has been limited. Current diagnostic methods rely on clinical assessments of nonspecific signs and symptoms, limited laboratory testing and technologies that are inaccessible, unaffordable or unsuitable for resource-constrained settings. There is…
Performance and usability of cardiometabolic point of care devices in Nepal
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, represent a serious global health concern. There is an urgent need for prompt diagnosis and effective monitoring at point of care, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Here we present the results of a study assessing the quantitative accuracy of two devices that may fit the target product profile for a cardiometabolic point-of-care device. This prospective, …
Implementing a pilot study of Covid-19 self-testing in high-risk populations and remote locations
Our findings contribute to the evidence-base regarding self-testing strategies conducted via workplaces and secondary distribution to households. Willingness to perform a COVID-19 self-test increased after implementation. This pilot enhanced pandemic preparedness through expansion of the national self-testing reporting system, development of communications materials, changes in the national legal framework and coordination mechanisms, and improve…
