Ce document vise à mettre en exergue les avancées remarquables que le Sénégal a pu faire grâce aux partenariats solides conclus avec des institutions et des individus partageant le même objectif: un Sénégal émergent sans paludisme.
La prise en charge de la tuberculose représente un véritable défi en milieu carcéral et l’organisation de la continuité des soins à la sortie un enjeu majeur. Comme tout être humain, les détenus ont le droit de jouir du meilleur état de santé physique et mental possible. Ce droit est gar...anti par l’article 25 de la Déclaration universelle des droits de l’homme adoptée par l’Organisation des Nations Unies, et par l’article 12 du Pacte international relatif aux droits économiques, sociaux et culturels. Ce travail fait un état des lieux sur la prise en charge de la tuberculose en milieu carcéral au Sénégal, depuis les stratégies de dépistage jusqu’à la continuité des soins après la sortie de prison.

In aquaculture, antibiotics have been used mainly for therapeutic purposes and as prophylactic agents. The contribution to antimicrobial resistance of antibiotics used in aquaculture is reviewed here, using a risk analysis framework. Some recommendations on responsible conduct in this context are pr...oposed, aimed at diminishing the threat of build up of antimicrobial resistance.

Antibiotics use with care
This short paper aims to identify key evidence gaps in our knowledge of livestock- and fisheries-linked antimicrobial resistance in the developing world, and to document on-going or planned research initiatives on this topic by key stakeholders.
The antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections in anima...ls that are of most potential risk to human health are likely to be zoonotic pathogens transmitted through food, especially Salmonella and Campylobacter. In addition, livestock associated methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA MRSA) and extended spectrum beta lactamase E. coli (ESBL E. coli) are emerging problems throughout the world.

SHOPS and HIA finalized a scope of work with USAID Senegal in April 2015, and a team of five private sector experts conducted the onsite assessments between May and June 2015. The Private Sector Assessment (PSA) team worked closely with Senegalese key stakeholders throughout the process. The PSA tea...m interviewed more than120 individuals from approximately 78 organizations, including the government of Senegal (GOS), donors, USAID implementing partners, private sector umbrella organizations, private insurance companies, faith-based organizations (FBOs), nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), private health care facilities, and private pharmacies.
Through stakeholder interviews and review of government reports and online resources, the assessment team noted the following findings by theme.

Pour une intervention efficace et efficiente de lutte anti-vectorielle, il est nécessaire de disposer au préalable des informations sur l’écologie, le comportement et la dynamique des populations de vecteurs locaux. Après interventions, il est fondamental d'évaluer l'effet des opérations et... aussi de pouvoir détecter ou prédire les fluctuations inhabituelles des tendances qui peuvent avoir des conséquences significatives sur la maladie.
Pour cette raison, des scientifiques d'institutions de recherche, des programmes nationaux de lutte contre le paludisme et de l'OMS se sont réunis en Juin 2008, à Libreville (Gabon) pour élaborer le premier projet de document intitulé «procédures opérationnelles standardisées (SOP) pour la surveillance des vecteurs dans le cadre de la surveillance intégrée des maladies et la gestion intégrée des vecteurs ». Le Projet de document a été finalisé par deux consultants et envoyé aux 7 pays pilotes pour être testé sur le terrain.

The goal of this assessment is to determine how far USAID/Senegal’s HIV/AIDS and TB programs have achieved their specific objectives with regard to identifying potential leads for improvement that are likely to make it easier to reach the planned results. After responding to the issues developed i...n various themes of the assessment, the results are placed in context and specific conclusions to each component are provided. The assessment also identifies the lessons learned from USAID/Senegal’s HIV/AIDS and TB programs and provides recommendations for future intervention.

Le défi des pays en voie de développement est la disponibilité de méthodes de diagnostic rapide et précis pour le management de la tuberculose. Des techniques moléculaires offrent cet avantage et nous avons utilisé le test GeneXpert MTB/RIF dans le diagnostic de la tuberculose extra-pulmonair...e pour évaluer sa performance par rapport aux méthodes conventionnelles.

Antibiotic resistant bacteria are spreading at an alarming rate and some bacterial infections may once again be untreatable. Antibiotic resistance (ABR), conservatively calculated, causes more than 500 000 deaths every year. This number is projected to rise dramatically if radical actions are not ta...ken. Lack of effective antibiotics, diagnostics and vaccines threatens the health of millions and hampers fulfilment of several of the Sustainable Development Goals. Access to effective antibiotics should be part of every adult and child’s right to health.

Cette évaluation est axée en premier lieu sur la planification familiale et en second lieu sur la santé maternelle, néonatale et de l’enfant (SMNE), le VIH/sida, le paludisme et la nutrition. L’évaluation avait les objectifs suivants :
1. Produire un aperçu des parties prenantes du secte...ur privé de la santé et de leurs rôles respectifs
2. Évaluer le niveau du dialogue politique entre les secteurs public et privé de la santé 3. Décrire les contributions du secteur privé aux principaux marchés et domaines de la santé, y compris le financement de la santé
4. Évaluer les marchés spécifiques pour les principaux produits et services de santé, et décrire la dynamique de l’offre et de la demande
5. Identifier les opportunités actuelles et potentielles pour des partenariats public-privé dans le secteur de la santé
6. Fournir des recommandations sur les meilleures façons de rendre les partenariats public-privé (PPP) opérationnels dans le secteur de la santé

The Antimicrobial Resistance Benchmark has evaluated for the second time how the most important players in the antibiotic market are addressing the rise of resistance and the global need for appropriate access to antibiotics. Although we can see progress — it’s hanging by a thread.
We have reac...hed a tipping point where large and prominent drugmakers have retreated from the antibiotics field and smaller innovative biotech companies have gone bankrupt due to the poor financial rewards on offer.

This is a case-ascertained prospective investigation of all identified health care contacts working in a health care facility in which a laboratory confirmed 2019-nCoV infected patient (see 2.2 Study population) receives care. Note that this study can be done in health care facilities at all 3 level...s of a health system – not just in hospitals. It is intended to provide epidemiological and serologic information which will inform the identification of risk factors 2019-nCoV infection among health care workers.
There are three primary objectives of this investigation among health care workers in a health care setting where a 2019-nCoV infected patient is being cared for:
To better understand the extent of human-to-human transmission among health care workers, by estimating the secondary infection rate1 for health care worker contacts at an individual level.
To characterize the range of clinical presentation of infection and the risk factors for infection among health care workers.
To evaluate effectiveness of infection prevention and control measures among health care workers
To evaluate effectiveness of infection prevention and control programmes at health facility and national level
