Democratic dispensation in 1994 created a political and social platform that reshaped life in South Africa. There was a surge in common belief that the inequity and wrong of Apartheid should and could be rectified. Equity of access to water and sanitation were obvious targets for improvement. In 199...4, an estimated 14–15 million South Africans were without access to an improved water supply, while close to 21 million - more than half of the population at that time - did not have access to improved sanitation facilities. These problems were most severe in poorer rural areas. The water and sanitation sector became unified by the vision of universal access for all South Africans. This case study documents the progression of the sector between 1994 and 2016, and analyzes the impact of local systems created in South Africa to respond to the water and sanitation challenge.more
Non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI) are public health measures that aim to prevent and/or control SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the community. As long as there is no effective and safe vaccine to protect those at risk of severe COVID-19, NPI are the most effective public health interventions against... COVID-19. These ECDC guidelines detail available options for NPI in various epidemiologic scenarios, assess the evidence for their effectiveness and address implementation issues, including potential barriers and facilitators.more
Partout dans le monde, les sociétés ont produit, adapté et fait évoluer leur habitat pour répondre au mieux à leurs besoins et

La guía se basa en las buenas prácticas existentes y se ha elaborado con la colaboración de enfermeras que trabajan en una amplia variedad de ámbitos, pero se enfoca principalmente en las áreas con recursos limitados. Representa el punto de vista del personal técnico ... de La Unión y de la red de Enfermeras y Profesionales Sanitarios entre los miembros de La Unión. Las mejores prácticas se presentan como una serie de pautas que se pueden adaptar a los servicios locales en países de ingresos bajos y medios y que fomentan la evaluación a través del uso de resultados cuantificables. Cada pauta corresponde a un punto importante en el diagnóstico o tratamiento de un paciente con TB, tomando como referencia las estrategias recomendadas por La Unión2, 3 y los regímenes de tratamiento recomendados por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) para TB susceptible a fármacos y TB resistente a fármacos.4, 5 A lo largo de esta guía, se remitirá a los lectores, a través de notas al pie, a la información relevante publicada en dos guías distintas de La Unión: Manejo de la Tuberculosis: Una guía esencial de buenas prácticas, 6ta edición, 2010 (denominada Guía Naranja)2y Lineamientos para el Manejo Clínico y Operativo de la Tuberculosis Drogorresistente, 2013 (denominada Guía de DR-TB).3 Otros materiales de referencia importantes se indican al final del documento y todos coinciden con las estrategias recomendadas a nivel internacional.more

Luego de muchos desastres, en particular los de mayor magnitud, la recuperación y la gestión inmediata de los cad...áveres es llevada a cabo por las autoridades, las organizaciones, las comunidades, los residentes y los voluntarios locales.more
National action plans on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) often overlook the critical intersection of gender, despite evidence that exposure and susceptibility to infection, health-seeking behaviours, as well as antimicrobial prescribing and use patterns are all influenced by gender.
About one fourth of the world’s population is estimated to have been infected with the tuberculosis (TB) bacilli, and about 5–10% of those infected develop TB disease in their lifetime. The risk for TB disease after infection depends on several factors, the most important being the person’s im...munological status. TB preventive treatment (TPT) given to people at highest risk of progressing from TB infection to disease remains a critical element to achieve the global targets of the End TB Strategy, as reiterated by the second UN High Level Meeting on TB in 2023. Delivering TPT effectively and safely necessitates a programmatic approach to implement a comprehensive package of interventions along a cascade of care: identifying individuals at highest risk, screening for TB and ruling out TB disease, testing for TB infection, and choosing the preventive treatment option that is best suited to an individual, managing adverse events, supporting medication adherence and monitoring programmatic performancemore
Background: Community health worker (CHW) programmes are a valuable component of primary care in resource-poor settings. The evidence supporting their effectiveness generally shows improvements in disease-specific outcomes relative to the absence of a CHW programme. In this study, we evaluated expan...ding an existing HIV and tuberculosis (TB) disease-specific CHW programme into a polyvalent, household-based model that subsequently included non-communicable diseases (NCDs), malnutrition and TB screening, as well as family planning and antenatal care (ANC).
Methods: We conducted a stepped-wedge cluster randomised controlled trial in Neno District, Malawi. Six clusters of approximately 20 000 residents were formed from the catchment areas of 11 healthcare facilities. The intervention roll-out was staggered every 3 months over 18 months, with CHWs receiving a 5-day foundational training for their new tasks and assigned 20–40 households for monthly (or more frequent) visits.
Findings: The intervention resulted in a decrease of approximately 20% in the rate of patients defaulting from chronic NCD care each month (−0.8 percentage points (pp) (95% credible interval: −2.5 to 0.5)) while maintaining the already low default rates for HIV patients (0.0 pp, 95% CI: −0.6 to 0.5). First trimester ANC attendance increased by approximately 30% (6.5pp (−0.3, 15.8)) and paediatric malnutrition case finding declined by 10% (−0.6 per 1000 (95% CI −2.5 to 0.8)). There were no changes in TB programme outcomes, potentially due to data challenges.more
While working with survivors and victims of domestic abuse, we have learned that
many people who have experienced abuse or trauma in their lives also experience mental health issues as a direct effect of what they have been through. This is why Chayn has created a Mental Health Toolkit available fo...r download by NGOs who support vulnerable individuals of all situations and circumstancesmore
