Implementation strategies and outcomes of intravenous iron use for treatment of anaemia during and after pregnancy in low- and middle-income countries
There is sufficient evidence of the efficacy of Intravenous (IV) over oral iron in treating anaemia in pregnancy and postpartum. However, poor implementation can lead to little or no benefit. The objectives of this scoping review are to map and synthesise evidence related to implementation strategies and implementation outcomes of IV iron use for treating anaemia in pregnancy and the postpartum in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This sc…
Older adults’ experiences of health seeking in rural areas in low- and middle-income countries
The global aged population is expected to reach 2.1 billion by 2050 and ∼40% of them will live in rural areas of low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This systematic review aims to synthesize the qualitative literature on rural older adults' experiences of health-seeking in LMICs as well as explore the factors that influence their experiences during their health-seeking journeys. We searched Embase, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL to identify …
Impact of unconditional cash transfers on household livelihood outcomes in Nigeria
In 2018, Nigeria began the implementation of a cash transfer programme (CCT) for poor and vulnerable people. We evaluated the impact of cash transfer on household livelihood outcomes in Nigeria. Using multistage cluster sampling methodology, beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries within the same locality were randomly selected to participate in a survey to assess the impact of cash transfer on food security and food diversity.When gender, marital st…
‘When my husband died, I collected debt of N20,000……were going to take me to the court, but since the money came, I have cleared my debt and bought cattle’
The Nigerian government commenced large scale cash transfer program in 2017. We evaluated the socioeconomic impact of the cash transfer program (CTP) in Nigeria. Across six randomly selected states that had implemented the CTP for at least six months, qualitative inquiries were conducted among beneficiaries and program implementers. We utilized a program impact theory to explore the interaction of cash transfer on socioeconomic outcomes. Data wer…
Risk Factors for Viral Non-suppression Among Youth Living with HIV in Nigeria
Provider and facility readiness for age-friendly health services for older adults in primary health care centres in southwest, Nigeria
There is a growing focus on interventions at the health system level to promote healthy aging and provide age-friendly health services (AFHS) in low- and middle-income countries where populations are aging. This study aimed to determine the provider and facility readiness for AFHS. We developed and implemented surveys to collect PHC facility capacity and readiness to deliver AFHS and a KAP survey for facility healthcare workers based on guideline…
Travel of pregnant women in emergency situations to hospital and maternal mortality in Lagos, Nigeria
INTRODUCTION: Prompt access to emergency obstetrical care (EmOC) reduces the risk of maternal mortality. We assessed institutional maternal mortality by distance and travel time for pregnant women with obstetrical emergencies in Lagos State, Nigeria. METHODS: We conducted a facility-based retrospective cohort study across 24 public hospitals in Lagos. Reviewing case notes of the pregnant women presenting between 1 November 2018 and 30 October 201…
The Exposure of Workers at a Busy Road Node to PM2.5
The link between air pollution and health burden in urban areas has been well researched. This has led to a plethora of effective policy-induced monitoring and interventions in the global south. However, the implication of pollutant species like PM 2.5 in low middle income countries (LMIC) still remains a concern. By adopting a positivist philosophy and deductive reasoning, this research addresses the question, to what extent can we deliver effec…
Barriers and recommendations for a cervical cancer screening program among women in low-resource settings in Lagos Nigeria
Interventions to increase uptake of cervical cancer screening among women in low resource settings need to improve knowledge of cervical cancer and address barriers to cervical cancer screening such as cost, distance, and as much as possible, sex of the healthcare provider should be considered
From Ebola to Covid-19
BACKGROUND: Lagos state is the industrial nerve centre of Nigeria and was the epicentre of the 2014 Ebola outbreak in Nigeria as it is now for the current Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak. This paper describes how the lessons learned from the Ebola outbreak in 2014 informed the emergency preparedness of the State ahead of the COVID-19 outbreak and guided response. DISCUSSION: Following the Ebola outbreak in 2014, the Lagos State government…
An assessment of geographical access and factors influencing travel time to emergency obstetric care in the urban state of Lagos, Nigeria
Previous efforts to estimate the travel time to comprehensive emergency obstetric care (CEmOC) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have either been based on spatial models or self-reported travel time, both with known inaccuracies. The study objectives were to estimate more realistic travel times for pregnant women in emergency situations using Google Maps, determine system-level factors that influence travel time and use these estimates …
Patterns, travel to care and factors influencing obstetric referral
The criticality of referral makes it imperative to study its patterns and factors influencing it at a health systems level. This study of referral in Lagos, Nigeria is based on health records of 4181 pregnant women who presented with obstetric emergencies at one of the 24 comprehensive emergency obstetric care (EmOC) facilities in the state between November 2018 and October 2019 complemented with distance and time data extracted from Google Maps.…
