Although POCUS has already been shown to improve care in LMICs, the overall quality of evidence remains low. This is largely explained by the absence of needs assessment prior to POCUS implementation and by the challenges that arise when measuring significant outcomes in small, non-academic centers in LMICs.</p> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 19:29:03 +0000 Catherine Auger-Morin, Jonathan Houle, Louise Pilote 2746 at /globalhealth /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-africa-non-communicable-diseases-women-and-child-health/ethnographic-survey-maternal-stress-ugandan-neonatal-hospital-unit <h2>Abstract</h2> <p>Disruption of maternal-infant bonding, hospital environments, and appearance of an unwell child are common triggers of maternal stress in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) in high-income countries. Characterizations of maternal stress in low-income countries are lacking, and may differ due to scarcity of healthcare workers and resources. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate maternal stress and contributing factors in a Ugandan neonatal hospital unit.</p> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 19:37:17 +0000 Delaney Barth, Efrance Kisooka, Judith Muteteri, Olive Kabajaasi, Abner Tagoola, Jessica Duby 2747 at /globalhealth /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-africa-non-communicable-diseases-women-and-child-health/exposure-household-air-pollution-and-immune-function-among-rural-south-african-children <h2>Abstract</h2> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 19:53:06 +0000 Emannuelle Batisse, T Di Lenardo, J Baumgartner, M Obida, R Bornman, B Ward, S Pillet, T Ramburn, K Moodliar, B Eskenazi, Jonathan Chevrier 2748 at /globalhealth /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-africa-americas-global-indigenous-health-women-and-child-health/networks-change-and-well-being-addressing-sexual-and-gender-based-violence-south <h2>Abstract</h2> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 20:06:25 +0000 Catherine Dillman, Claudia Mitchell 2750 at /globalhealth /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-africa-healthcare-infectious-diseases/healthcare-seeking-pathways-and-delays-diagnosis-tuberculosis-and-treatment-initiation <h2>Abstract</h2> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 21:01:18 +0000 Lavanya Huria, Bolanle Olusola-Faleye, Elaine Baruwa, Lauren Rosapep, Micah Sorum, Charity Oga-Omenka, Madhukar Pai 2753 at /globalhealth /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-africa-non-communicable-diseases-women-and-child-health/relational-facilitators-womens-empowerment-family-level-women-and-men-have-different <h2>Abstract</h2> <p><strong>Background</strong><br /> Understanding gender roles and women’s empowerment is crucial to improve nutrition and health.

The LINkINg Up project is an on-going nutrition-sensitive agriculture intervention (NSA) to improve the livelihoods and well-being of rural Ghanaian women and their families. To promote gender equity participants received gender training from the intervention.</p> Tue, 26 Oct 2021 15:37:39 +0000 Nathan Siamudaala, AishatAbdu, Grace S Marquis, Esi Colecraft 2773 at /globalhealth
