The prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancers has been on the increase in Kenya in the recent past. This has been occasioned by changes in social and demographic situation in the country. The life expectancy... in the country is improving, while the country is developing at a rapid pace. This has resulted in people living more years and at the time adopting lifestyles that have negative impacts on their health. This increase in diabetes and other non-communicable diseases has given rise to a double burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases in Kenya

La maladie à virus Ebola (MVE) est une maladie multisystémique potentiellement mortelle qui entraîne souvent une hypovolémie, une acidose métabolique, une hypoglycémie et une défaillance multi-viscérale. L'épidémie prolongée de MVE en Afrique de... l'Ouest en 2013-2016 a permis une évolution dans le domaine des soins telle qu'à la fin de l'épidémie, de nombreux patients ont pu recevoir des soins de support individualisés et optimisés, dont la réanimation hydro-électrolytique, le contrôle des symptômes, la surveillance biologique en laboratoire et au chevet de la glycémie et des électrolytes, la prise en charge des défaillances d’organe, ainsi que la détection et le traitement rapides des co-infections, contribuant ainsi à une réduction de la mortalité.
Toutefois, le niveau des soins varie considérablement d'un centre de traitement Ebola (CTE) à l'autre, au cours de la même épidémie, ainsi que d’une épidémie à l’autre

Clinical management standard operating procedures.
Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a life-threatening multisystem illness associated with fever and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms that frequently leads to hypovolaemia, metabolic acidosis, hypoglycaemia, and multi-organ failure. The prolonged 2013–201...6 EVD outbreak in West Africa allowed for an evolution of care such that by outbreak end many patients received individualized and optimized supportive care (oSoC), including volume resuscitation, symptom control, laboratory and bedside monitoring of glucose, electrolyte levels and organ dysfunction, as well as rapid detection and treatment of co-infections, potentially contributing to the downward trend in the case fatality rate (CFR).
This guidance should serve as a foundation for oSoC that should be followed to ensure both the best possible chance for survival and allow for reliable comparison of investigational therapeutic interventions as part of a randomized controlled trial. This guideline provides recommendations for the management of adults and children.
