  • Improving quality and efficiency of facility-based child health care through Integrated Management of Childhood Illness in Tanzania

    Open AccessJennifer Bryce, Cécile Coléou et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2005Citada por: 4

    IMCI improved the quality and efficiency of child health care relative to routine child health care in the study districts. Previous study results indicated that the introduction of IMCI in these Tanzanian districts was associated with mortality levels that were 13% lower than in comparison districts. We can therefore conclude that IMCI is also more cost-effective than routine care for improving child health outcomes. The dissemination strategy f…

  • Out-of-pocket payments for under-five health care in rural southern Tanzania

    Open AccessFatuma Manzi, J Schellenberg et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2005Citada por: 3

    Catastrophic payments and fairness in financial contributions for health care are becoming increasing concerns for many governments. Out-of-pocket financing for health care is common in many developing countries, including Tanzania. As part of the Multi-Country Evaluation of the Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (MCE-IMCI), the objective of this paper is to explore the determinants of variation and the level of out-of-pocket payments for…

  • Context matters

    Open AccessCesar G Victora, J Schellenberg et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2005Citada por: 15

    Appropriate consideration of contextual factors is essential for ensuring internal and external validity of randomized and non-randomized evaluations. Contextual factors may confound the association between delivery of the intervention and its potential health impact. They may also modify the effect of the intervention or programme, thus affecting the generalizability of results. This is particularly true for large-scale health programmes, for wh…

  • Impact of Integrated Management of Childhood Illness on inequalities in child health in rural Tanzania

    Open AccessHonorati Masanja, J Schellenberg et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2005Citada por: 2

    We examined the impact of the Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) strategy on the equality of health outcomes and access across socioeconomic gradients in rural Tanzania, by comparing changes in inequities between 1999 and 2002 in two districts with IMCI (Morogoro Rural and Rufiji) and two without (Kilombero and Ulanga). Equity differentials for six child health indicators (underweight, stunting, measles immunization, access to trea…
