      A Review of Vitamin A Supplementation in South Sudan: Successes, Challenges, and Opportunities for the Way Forward

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100660; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00660

      Although South Sudan's vitamin A supplementation program has demonstrated success, vitamin A supplementation remains a critical public health need for young children. How can South Sudan best maintain high vitamin A supplementation coverage for the short to medium term while planning a more sustainable delivery approach for the longer term?

      Early Lessons From Ethiopia in Establishing a Data Triangulation Process to Analyze Immunization Program and Supply Data for Decision Making
      Adriana Almiñana, Amare Bayeh, Daniel Girma, Natasha Kanagat, Lisa Oot, Wendy Prosser, Belayneh Dagnew and Disha Ali
      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100719; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00719

      Health managers in Ethiopia used a data triangulation tool and process to prompt decision making and meaningful actions to improve immunization services. Immunization managers interested in incorporating data triangulation analyses into their current data review systems will need to determine practical, feasible means for operationalization, preferably through a collaborative, iterative process with users.

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100390; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00390

      This evaluation suggests that it is both possible and valuable to include patients as partners in quality improvement efforts, especially when resources must be prioritized for the highest impact efforts. Patient engagement in the improvement process is particularly powerful when addressing illnesses that may be stigmatized such as HIV.

      Identifying the High-Risk Fetus in the Low-Risk Mother Using Fetal Doppler Screening

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100692; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00692

      Continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound of the umbilical artery offers an inexpensive and scalable method of detecting undiagnosed fetal growth restriction. Using Doppler to screen low-risk pregnancies in low- and middle-income countries identifies fetuses at risk of stillbirth and, when managed appropriately, results in a step change reduction in the stillbirth rate.

      Where Women Access Contraception in 36 Low- and Middle-Income Countries and Why It Matters

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100525; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00525

      The public and private sectors are both important sources of modern contraception in nearly every low- and middle-income country studied and across sociodemographic groups. Catalyzing cross-sectoral collaboration and leveraging the potential of both sectors are critical as countries work to expand access to modern contraception and meet women's reproductive intentions.

      Standardized surveillance for health care-associated infections (HAI) is critical for HAI prevention, yet standardized implementation across low- and middle-income countries is limited. With the support of partners, the Vietnam Ministry of Health implemented standardized HAI surveillance in 6 hospitals, and in doing so, identified 5 key elements for program success.

      Standardized surveillance for health care-associated infections (HAI) is critical for HAI prevention, yet standardized implementation across low- and middle-income countries is limited. With the support of partners, the Vietnam Ministry of Health implemented standardized HAI surveillance in 6 hospitals, and in doing so, identified 5 key elements for program success.

      Continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound of the umbilical artery offers an inexpensive and scalable method of detecting undiagnosed fetal growth restriction. Using Doppler to screen low-risk pregnancies in low- and middle-income countries identifies fetuses at risk of stillbirth and, when managed appropriately, results in a step change reduction in the stillbirth rate.

      Information Mobilized for Performance Analysis and Continuous Transformation (IMPACT) Teams use a people-centered, data-driven approach to strengthen supply chains by fostering a continuous cycle of supply chain improvement. This study demonstrates that IMPACT Teams are an effective approach for improving contraceptive supply chain inventory management and availability.

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100744; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00744

      Current trends in surgical simulation favor high-fidelity, costly models that are often limited to high-income academic centers. The GlobalSurgBox overcomes many of the barriers to routine implementation and use of surgical simulators in low-income countries by circumventing the often prohibitive financial, time, and personnel investments required of current simulation prototypes.

      Continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound of the umbilical artery offers an inexpensive and scalable method of detecting undiagnosed fetal growth restriction. Using Doppler to screen low-risk pregnancies in low- and middle-income countries identifies fetuses at risk of stillbirth and, when managed appropriately, results in a step change reduction in the stillbirth rate.

Immunization managers interested in incorporating data triangulation analyses into their current data review systems will need to determine practical, feasible means for operationalization, preferably through a collaborative, iterative process with users.

      Continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound of the umbilical artery offers an inexpensive and scalable method of detecting undiagnosed fetal growth restriction. Using Doppler to screen low-risk pregnancies in low- and middle-income countries identifies fetuses at risk of stillbirth and, when managed appropriately, results in a step change reduction in the stillbirth rate.

      Continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound of the umbilical artery offers an inexpensive and scalable method of detecting undiagnosed fetal growth restriction. Using Doppler to screen low-risk pregnancies in low- and middle-income countries identifies fetuses at risk of stillbirth and, when managed appropriately, results in a step change reduction in the stillbirth rate.

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100284; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00284

      Standardized surveillance for health care-associated infections (HAI) is critical for HAI prevention, yet standardized implementation across low- and middle-income countries is limited. With the support of partners, the Vietnam Ministry of Health implemented standardized HAI surveillance in 6 hospitals, and in doing so, identified 5 key elements for program success.

      Although South Sudan's vitamin A supplementation program has demonstrated success, vitamin A supplementation remains a critical public health need for young children. How can South Sudan best maintain high vitamin A supplementation coverage for the short to medium term while planning a more sustainable delivery approach for the longer term?

      Targeted risk communication and community engagement strategies to raise Ebola virus disease awareness and knowledge, particularly in setting where risk of infection is perceived to be low, may not be sufficient to motivate people to adopt protective behaviors and prevention practices.

      Data to Action: A Mixed-Methods Study of Data Use Teams, Improved Availability of Contraceptives in Guinea, Indonesia, Kenya, and Myanmar

      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100345; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00345

      Information Mobilized for Performance Analysis and Continuous Transformation (IMPACT) Teams use a people-centered, data-driven approach to strengthen supply chains by fostering a continuous cycle of supply chain improvement. This study demonstrates that IMPACT Teams are an effective approach for improving contraceptive supply chain inventory management and availability.

      “Nothing for Us Without Us”: An Evaluation of Patient Engagement in an HIV Care Improvement Collaborative in the Caribbean
      Shay Bluemer-Miroite, Katy Potter, Elizabeth Blanton, Georgia Simmonds, Conrad Mitchell, Kenyatta Barnaby, Karen Askov Zeribi, Dale Babb, Nicola Skyers, Gabrielle O'Malley and Clive Anderson
      Global Health: Science and Practice June 2022, 10(3):e2100390; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00390

      This evaluation suggests that it is both possible and valuable to include patients as partners in quality improvement efforts, especially when resources must be prioritized for the highest impact efforts. Patient engagement in the improvement process is particularly powerful when addressing illnesses that may be stigmatized such as HIV.
