Discharge policies and care practices for children with suspected sepsis
Under-five children in low- and middle-income countries remain at high risk of death after hospital discharge. However, few studies have systematically assessed discharge processes or facility readiness to support safe transitions of care. This study aimed to assess health facility readiness to provide pediatric discharge care for children under five years of age and current discharge practices in a nationally representative sample of health faci…
Validation of a risk-prediction model for pediatric post-discharge mortality after hospital admission for infection in Rwanda
Mortality following hospital discharge remains a significant threat to child health, particularly in resource-limited settings. The Smart Discharges risk-prediction models use simple clinical, socio-behavioral, and point-of-care lab test variables to successfully predict children at the highest risk of death after hospital admission for infection to guide a risk-based approach to post-discharge care. In Rwanda, we externally validated five models…
Post-discharge mortality in suspected pediatric sepsis
Post-discharge death is a key contributor to pediatric mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. To address this period’s morbidity and mortality, evidence is needed to inform resource prioritization and policy development. No studies have been conducted in Rwanda, limiting understanding of post-discharge mortality. This study aimed to determine the incidence of and risk factors for post-discharge mortality among children under five admitted with suspecte…
Transitions from hospital to home
The World Health Organization (WHO) Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) guidelines recognize the importance of discharge planning to ensure continuation of care at home and appropriate follow-up. However, insufficient attention has been paid to post discharge planning in many hospitals contributing to poor implementation. To understand the reasons for suboptimal discharge, we evaluated the pediatric discharge process from hospital a…
