      Beyond Institutionalization: Planning for Sustained Investments in Training, Supervision, and Support of Community Health Worker Programs in Bangladesh
      Shongkour Roy, Shivani Pandya, Md. Irfan Hossain, Timothy Abuya, Charlotte E. Warren, Paloma Mitra, Ubaidur Rob, Sharif Hossain and Smisha Agarwal
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):765-776; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00156

      Institutionalizing community health workers (CHWs) is insufficient for improving program quality. Governments must plan for sustained investments for salaries and benefits, as well as systems enabling adaptive management of the CHW cadres. Greater coordination is needed at the global level to pool and align donor investments to support the ecosystem underlying CHW programs.

      Accuracy of Using Mid-Upper Arm Circumference to Detect Wasting Among Children Aged 6–59 Months in Nepal
      Krishna Prasad Lamsal, Kedar Raj Parajuli, Bhim Kumari Pun, Ramesh Prasad Adhikari, Manoj Bashyal, Baburaja Dangol and Kenda Cunningham
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):881-889; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00450

      When comparing the sensitivity and specificity of mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) versus weight-for-height z-scores (WHZ) to identify wasting in children aged 6–59 months in Nepal, our findings suggest that only using MUAC compared to WHZ to screen may exclude a large number of children who could be at risk of severe or moderate acute malnutrition.

      Shongkour Roy, Shivani Pandya, Md. Irfan Hossain, Timothy Abuya, Charlotte E. Warren, Paloma Mitra, Ubaidur Rob, Sharif Hossain and Smisha Agarwal
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):765-776; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00156

      Institutionalizing community health workers (CHWs) is insufficient for improving program quality.

      Household Survey Measurement of Newborn Postnatal Care: Coverage, Quality Gaps, and Internal Inconsistencies in Responses
      Kimberly Peven, Louise Tina Day, Debra Bick, Edward Purssell, Cath Taylor, Joseph Akuze and Lindsay Mallick
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):737-751; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00209

      Reliable measurement of postnatal content of care is currently lacking despite the critical importance of care in this vulnerable period. We found that there is a large quality-coverage gap with missed opportunities for quality care as well as internal inconsistencies in responses to newborn questions.

      Health System Redesign to Shift to Hospital Delivery for Maternal and Newborn Survival: Feasibility Assessment in Kakamega County, Kenya
      Kojo Nimako, Anna Gage, Caroline Benski, Sanam Roder-DeWan, Khatra Ali, Charles Kandie, Aisha Mohamed, Hellen Odeny, Micky Oloo, John Tolo Boston Otieno, Maximilla Wanzala, Rachel Okumu and Margaret E. Kruk
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):1000-1010; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00684

      Service delivery redesign is needed to accelerate progress toward improved health outcomes. Kakamega County, Kenya, demonstrates that there is a strong base of health system assets that would serve as a starting point to successfully implement maternal and newborn health service delivery redesign.

      Using a Pharmacy-Based Surveillance System to Improve Standards for TB Care in Kerala, India
      Rakesh PS, Shibu Balakrishnan, Rakesh Ramachandran, Smitha Nandhan, Nidhish Issac Samuel, Pramodkumar PP and Suja Aloysius
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):846-854; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00346

      A pharmacy-based surveillance system in Kerala, India, has helped to improve TB patient notifications from the private sector, build better public-private partnerships, and improve the quality of TB diagnosis. Pharmacy-based surveillance has the potential to strengthen TB surveillance and facilitate standards of TB care.

      From Insecurity to Health Service Delivery: Pathways and System Response Strategies in the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo
      Chiara Altare, Vito Castelgrande, Maphie Tosha, Espoir Bwenge Malembaka and Paul Spiegel
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):915-927; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00107

      We identify the mediating factors through which insecurity affects both health service quality and delivery and investigate the strategies adopted to sustain service provision in the provinces of North and South Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo.

    1. Open Access
      A Call to Action: Reinvigorating Interest and Investments in Health Infrastructure
      Lindsay M. Mallick and Joshua Amo-Adjei
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):711-715; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00674

      Infrastructure investments can contribute substantially to alleviating burdens of morbidity and mortality while also providing a positive return on investment in the long term.

  9. Angel, Alexandra

      Leveraging the Client-Provider Interaction to Address Contraceptive Discontinuation: A Scoping Review of the Evidence That Links Them
      Kendal Danna, Alexandra Angel, Jamee Kuznicki, Laetitia Lemoine, Klaira Lerma and Amanda Kalamar
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):948-963; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00235

      After examining existing evidence on contraceptive counseling and its impact on discontinuation, this scoping review identifies principles and priorities for better rights-based counseling, yet also illuminates the need for more evidence to understand relationships between counseling and discontinuation.

    1. Open Access
      Participation in a Community-Based Women's Health Education Program and At-Risk Child Development in Rural Kenya: Developmental Screening Questionnaire Results Analysis
      Megan S. McHenry, Lauren Y. Maldonado, Ziyi Yang, Gertrude Anusu, Evelyn Kaluhi, Astrid Christoffersen-Deb, Julia J. Songok and Laura J. Ruhl
      Global Health: Science and Practice December 2021, 9(4):818-831; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00349

      A community-based intervention focused on women's health education may help protect against early childhood developmental delays in resource-limited settings.
