  • Scoping review of interventions to improve continuity of postdischarge care for newborns in LMICs

    Open AccessGulraj Grewal, Sebastian Fuller et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2024

    INTRODUCTION: Neonatal mortality remains significant in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) with in-hospital mortality rates similar to those following discharge from healthcare facilities. Care continuity interventions have been suggested as a way of reducing postdischarge mortality by better linking care between facilities and communities. This scoping review aims to map and describe interventions used in LMICs to improve care contin…

  • Evaluating the documentation of vital signs following implementation of a new comprehensive newborn monitoring chart in 19 hospitals in Kenya

    Open AccessNaomi Muinga, Timothy Tuti et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Multi-professional teams care for sick newborns, but nurses are the primary caregivers, making nursing care documentation essential for delivering high-quality care, fostering teamwork, and improving patient outcomes. We report on an evaluation of vital signs documentation following implementation of the comprehensive newborn monitoring chart using interrupted time series analysis and a review of filled charts. We collected post-admission vital s…

  • Implementing a comprehensive newborn monitoring chart

    Open AccessNaomi Muinga, Ibukun‐Oluwa Omolade Abejirinde et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Documenting inpatient care is largely paper-based and it facilitates team communication and future care planning. However, studies show that nursing documentation remains suboptimal especially for newborns, necessitating introduction of standardised paper-based charts. We report on a process of implementing a comprehensive newborn monitoring chart and the perceptions of health workers in a network of hospitals in Kenya. The chart was launched vir…

  • The counterintuitive self-regulated learning behaviours of healthcare providers from low-income settings

    Open AccessTimothy Tuti, Chris Paton et al.ARTICLEComputers & Education2021

    Self-regulated learning (SRL) is useful for understanding self-directed learning practices. However, SRL behaviours - despite being deemed highly context-dependent - remain mostly unexplored for healthcare workers in low-income countries. This study details how SRL strategies vary and impact on healthcare providers' learning gains when using digital learning platforms. We apply Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) to questionnaire responses from a sampl…

  • The indirect impact of Covid-19 pandemic on inpatient admissions in 204 Kenyan hospitals

    Open AccessSteven Wambua, Lucas Malla et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2021

    The first case of severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was identified in March 2020 in Kenya resulting in the implementation of public health measures (PHM) to prevent large-scale epidemics. We aimed to quantify the impact of COVID-19 confinement measures on access to inpatient services using data from 204 Kenyan hospitals. Data on monthly admissions and deliveries from the District Health Information Software version 2 (DHIS 2) we…

  • Data for tracking SDGs

    Open AccessChristiane Hagel, Chris Paton et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2020

    Background: Target 3.2 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to reduce neonatal mortality. In low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), the District Health Information Software, V.2 (DHIS2) is widely used to help improve indicator data reporting. There are few reports on its use for collecting neonatal hospital data that are of increasing importance as births within facilities increase. To address this gap, we invest…

  • The Wero group stop smoking competition

    Open AccessMarewa Glover, Anette Kira et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2014

    WERO appeared to be successful in prompting quitting among high smoking prevalence groups. WERO combined several promising strategies for supporting cessation: peer support, cessation provider support, incentives, competition and interactive internet and mobile tools. Though designed for Māori and Pacific people, WERO could potentially be effective for other family- and community-centred cultures

  • An innovative team-based stop smoking competition among Māori and Pacific Island smokers

    Open AccessMarewa Glover, Amber Bosman et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    Cultural practices incorporated into the intervention include having a holistic family or group-centred focus, inter-group competitiveness, fundraising and ritual pledging. Competition elements included are social support, pharmacotherapy use, cash prize incentives and the use of a dedicated website and iPad application. A pre-test post-test will be combined with process evaluation to evaluate if the competition results in triggering mass-quittin…
