In order to identify and prioritize diagnostic needs, a WHO NTD Diagnostics Technical Advisory Group (DTAG) was ... more
The main purpose of the meeting was to review tsetse control tools, activities and their contribution to the elimination of gHAT and the monitoring thereof. Seven endemic countries provided reports on recent and ongoing vector control interventions at the national level (Angola, Cameroon, Côte d’ ... more
Tsetse traps and targets (insecticide-impregnated screens) function by attracting the flies to a device that collects and/or kills them. Traps can be used for entomological surveillance, and also for control. Targets are simpler than traps, but are not used for surveillance. They are impregnated wit ... more
DPDx Laboratory Identification of Parasites of Public Health Concerns Including Life cycle
A clear understanding of the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) of a particular community is necessary in order to improve control of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT).New screening and diag ... more
This analysis focused on the chronic form of HAT caused by T. b. gambiense, as it contributes to the majority of disease burden. Information from the literature review, product development landscape, and stakeholder interviews was compiled to: - Identify use cases and understand current diagnosti ... more
The previous report of the WHO Expert Committee on this disease followed a meeting in 1995. Intensive, coordinated efforts against HAT during the intervening 18 years have resulted in a decrease in incidence to a point at which elimination is considered feasible. This report provides informati ... more
This report provides a review and analysis of the research landscape for three diseases – Chagas disease, human African trypanosomiasis and leishmaniasis – that disproportionately afflict poor a ... more
WHO convened the fifth stakeholders meeting on the elimination of HAT due to infection with Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (g-HAT) and Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (r-HAT) in Geneva, Switzerland, on 7–9 June 2023. The meeting was held again in person after the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandem ... more
WHO Guidelines for the Treatment of Human African Trypanosomiasis. Web Annex B
Having established the goal of eliminating transmission of gambiense human African trypanosomiasis (g-HAT) to humans, the HAT-e-TAG considered which elements should be developed to assess this goal. ... more
