Effect of caregiver training on knowledge and confidence of at-home clinical and anthropometric surveillance of children with uncomplicated severe acute malnutrition
INTRODUCTION: Patient-centred task-shifting models may be a promising strategy in the community-based management of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) to alleviate pressure on health systems and increase access to treatment in low-resource settings. The engagement of caregivers in clinical and anthropometric surveillance has not been evaluated. OBJECTIVES: We examined the effect of caregiver training on their knowledge and confidence in at-home clin…
Cost-effectiveness of monthly follow-up for the treatment of uncomplicated severe acute malnutrition
Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is a major source of mortality for children in low resource settings. Alternative treatment models that improve acceptability and reduce caregiver burden are needed to improve treatment access. We assessed costs and cost-effectiveness of monthly vs. weekly follow-up (standard-of-care) for treating uncomplicated SAM in children 6–59 months of age. To do so, we conducted a cost-effectiveness analysis of a cluster-ran…
