Identification of psychosocial problems in routine antenatal care in Ethiopia
In this facility-based cross-sectional survey in primary health care centres in southern Ethiopia, women attending for antenatal care (ANC) were screened for depression (PHQ-9; score ≥ 5 and functionally impaired), anxiety symptoms (GAD-7; score ≥ 10), post-traumatic stress disorder (PCL-5 score ≥ 31), intimate partner violence (IPV; non-graphic language screening test) and risky substance use (ASSIST). Clinical notes were reviewed post-consultat…
Ethiopian primary healthcare clinical guidelines 5 years on—processes and lessons learnt from scaling up a primary healthcare initiative
Many effective health system innovations fail to reach those who need them most, falling short of the goal of universal health coverage. In the 5 years since the Federal Ministry of Health in Ethiopia localised the Practical Approach to Care Kit (PACK) programme to support primary care reforms, PACK has been scaled-up to over 90% of the country’s primary care health centres. Known as the Ethiopian Primary Healthcare Clinical Guideline (EPHCG), th…
HeAlth System StrEngThening in four sub-Saharan African countries (Asset) to achieve high-quality, evidence-informed surgical, maternal and newborn, and primary care

The aim of the National Institute for Health Research Global Research Unit on HeAlth System StrEngThening in Sub-Saharan Africa (ASSET) is to address this need in a four-year programme, with three healthcare platforms involving eight work-packages. Key to effective health system strengthening (HSS) is the pre-implem…
Magnitude of opportunistic diseases and their predictors among adult people living with HIV enrolled in care
Opportunistic diseases were found to be pervasive among HIV infected adults in Ethiopia. Proactive identification and management, and prevention of opportunistic diseases should be strengthened especially among females, ambulatory or bed-ridden, and patients with low CD4 cell count
Tuberculosis lymphadenitis in Southwest Ethiopia
The prevalence of TB lymphadenitis in Gilgel Gibe is similar with the WHO estimates for Ethiopia. Screening of TB lymphadenitis particularly for family members who have contact with chronic coughers is recommended. Health extension workers could be trained to screen and refer TB lymphadenitis suspects using simple methods
