Ensuring equitable engagement in global health education
INTRODUCTION: Global health originated from colonial and tropical medicine, which served the interests of colonial powers. Despite efforts to address this legacy, the field still faces challenges in unequal partnerships between high-income (HICs) and low-income and middle-income (LMICs) countries. Activists push for paradigm shifts emphasising health equity, decolonisation and partnerships based on solidarity and justice. The Geisel School of Med…
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…
