Patient and provider experiences with PEN-Plus in rural Mozambique
BACKGROUND: Severe chronic noncommunicable diseases (SC-NCDs) globally present a challenge for health systems, particularly in rural settings of low- and lower-middle-income countries (LLMICs). The Package of Essential NCD Interventions-Plus (PEN-Plus) is a strategy currently used in 14 LLMICs to effectively manage people living with SC-NCDs (PLWSC-NCDs), including in Nhamatanda, Sofala Province, Mozambique. OBJECTIVES: We are conducting a cohort…
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…
Organization of services for severe chronic Noncommunicable diseases at first-level hospitals in nine lower-income countries
Severe chronic noncommunicable diseases pose a significant health burden and challenges for health systems globally. This study aims to advance our understanding of the current organization of care for these conditions in low and lower-middle-income countries. The study was conducted as part of a baseline assessment of facilities prior to the initiation of the Package of Essential NCD Interventions -Plus (PEN-Plus) strategy, which is designed to …
Prospective cohort study evaluating feasibility, acceptability, and clinical impact of diabetes self-management education in a PEN-Plus program in Southeastern Liberia
People living with insulin dependent diabetes (PLWIDD) in low and lower-middle income countries (LLMICs), specifically rural areas, face significant barriers to diabetes management. Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) is an evidence-based intervention to educate and empower people living with diabetes to improve self-management. This pilot study evaluates the feasibility and clinical impact of a DSME program in a rural Package of Essential …
Models of care for noncommunicable diseases in primary care
Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) pose a global health challenge, with primary health care's (PHC) potential to address them underutilized. While efforts to design and implement effective NCDs care models in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are increasing, conclusive recommendations are lacking. This scoping review maps literature on NCDs care models in LMICs, examining elements, theoretical foundations, and outcomes to inform the developme…
Realigning noncommunicable disease monitoring with health systems priorities in the Africa region
The African region of the World Health Organization (WHO) recently adopted a strategy aimed at more comprehensive care for noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in the region. The WHO’s World Health Assembly has also newly approved several ambitious disease-specific targets that raise the expectations of chronic care and plans to revise and update the NCD-Global Action Plan. These actions provide a critically needed opportunity for reflection and cours…
Addressing severe chronic NCDs across Africa
Severe chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) pose important challenges for health systems across Africa. This study explores the current availability of and demand for decentralization of services for four high-priority conditions: insulin-dependent diabetes, heart failure, sickle cell disease, and chronic pain. Ministry of Health NCD Programme Managers from across Africa (N = 47) were invited to participate in an online survey. Respondents we…
The Lancet NCDI Poverty Commission
Evaluation of a community-based hypertension improvement program (ComHIP) in Ghana
The high burden of hypertension among the studied population, coupled with high awareness, yet very low level of hypertension treatment and control requires in-depth investigation of the bottlenecks to treatment and control. The low hypertension treatment and control rates despite current and previous general educational programs particularly in the intervention district, may suggest that such programs are not necessarily impactful on the health …
National, regional, and worldwide estimates of preterm birth rates in the year 2010 with time trends since 1990 for selected countries
Neonatal survival interventions in humanitarian emergencies
Neonatal care is provided by most of the responding humanitarian organizations; however, the quality, breadth and consistency of this care are limited
Late diagnosis of HIV in Europe
With universal access to antiretroviral therapy (ART), people can access effective treatment but are only able to benefit from these advances if they are aware of their status and are effectively accessing testing services. Although it was anticipated in the mid-1990s that the availability of ART would lead to earlier testing, this trend has not been observed in practice, with stagnant or even increasing rates of late diagnosis in Europe. Ahead o…
