Tools for the Integrated Management of Childhood Illness: Evaluation of Pulse Oximetry and Clinical Decision Support Algorithms in Primary Care. Cross-country Quasi-experimental Pre-post Study, With Embedded Mixed Methods Studies, Cost and Modelled Cost-effectiveness in Kenya and Senegal
In Brief
An observational study for Childhood Severe Illness and 6 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 51,590 participants across 2 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
By introducing pulse oximetry, with or without clinical decision support algorithms, to primary care facilities in India, Kenya, Senegal and Tanzania, the Tools for Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (TIMCI) project aims to contribute to reducing morbidity and mortality for sick children under-five while supporting the rational and efficient use of diagnostics and medicines by healthcare providers. The multi-country, multi-method evaluation aims to generate evidence on the health and quality of care impact, operational priorities, cost and cost-effectiveness of introducing these tools to facilitate national and international decision-making on scale-up.
