Market Advocacy to Reduce Newborn Infections and Deaths in Bangladesh

This case study examines the use of advocacy to reduce newborn infections in Bangladesh, specifically the market advocacy efforts by PATH and the Bangladesh Pediatric Association to engage public and private stakeholders to understand the importance of 7.1 percent chlorhexidine digluconate use.

Oxygen Therapy for Newborn, Child, and Maternal Health

This fact sheet describes PATH’s work to increase access to oxygen therapy for the treatment of life-threatening pneumonia and hypoxemia in newborns and children. Facilitating inclusion of expanded uses of oxygen on the World Health Organization’s Essential Medicines List, as well as the inclusion of oxygen technologies and pulse oximetry in global commodity lists and treatment guidelines, are essential for reducing child mortality.

Analytical and diagnostic performance of a high-sensitivity histidine-rich protein 2 ELISA for detection of Plasmodium falciparum malaria

In low-transmission settings, submicroscopic quantities of Plasmodium falciparum are undetectable by current rapid diagnostic tests and ELISAs. Detection of this reservoir is essential, and we need a highly sensitive laboratory reference assay to confirm these infections. This study aimed to characterize the analytical and diagnostic performance of Alere’s high-sensitivity test.

Assessing the Technical and Programmatic Feasibility of a Microarray Patch for Intradermal Delivery of Primaquine to Treat P. vivax

This study assessed the technical and programmatic feasibility of a microarray patch for sustained, intradermal delivery of primaquine to treat P. vivax malaria. The team conducted an analysis to assess the potential for using microarray patches for delivery of primaquine and to inform the development of target product profile characteristics.

A Controlled Human Malaria Infection Model Comparing Low-Dose Piperaquine and Sulfadoxine-Pyrimethamine to Induce Infectious Male and Female P. Falciparum Gametocytes

Efforts to reduce transmission and eliminate malaria require an understanding of biology and transmission. A model to induce gametocytes to understand their dynamics and evaluate transmission-blocking interventions is currently unavailable. Here, we explore the use of the Controlled Human Malaria Infection model to induce gametocyte carriage with antimalarial drug regimens.

Development of Multiple-Micronutrient and Environmental Enteric Dysfunction Assessment Tool (MEEDAT)

Environmental enteric dysfunction (EED) is associated with serious risks for children in low-resource settings. We currently need a tool to quantitate EED biomarkers to increase the efficiency of EED screening before clinical trial enrollment. This study worked to develop an assay to detect and quantify EED biomarkers in human specimens

Guidelines for Organizing a Quality Assurance Program for Introduction and Routine Use of careHPV in Low-Resource Settings

PATH’s Scale-Up project works to expand the use of human papillomavirus (HPV) testing for cervical cancer prevention. Based on PATH’s experience implementing the careHPV™ test in Central America, this manual, available in Spanish and English, provides guidance for organizing a quality assurance program to screening programs adopting the careHPV test.

New Multiplex Assay for Assessing Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum infection

Asymptomatic malaria infection in endemic areas presents new challenges, as the asymptomatic individuals constituting the human parasite reservoirs contribute to transmission. To achieve elimination, asymptomatic and submicroscopic reservoirs must be identified and treated. Here we sought to develop a highly sensitive tool to detect P. falciparum and P. vivax infection.

Oxygen Is Essential: A Policy and Advocacy Primer

The primer provides the data, messages, and resources to help understand the planning, policies, and technologies involved in oxygen delivery scale-up. The materials are useful to anyone who wants to learn about scaling up access to oxygen and integrating oxygen delivery across national and subnational policies, programs, and health budgets.

Policy Brief - Ensuring Equitable Access to Human Milk for All Infants: A Comprehensive Approach to Essential Newborn Care

This policy brief brings attention to current global policies that support the provision of human milk, including donor human milk from milk banks, and encourages policymakers to take actions that will increase access to donor human milk for sick and vulnerable newborns.

Quantitative point-of-care G6PD tests for radical cure of Plasmodium vivax malaria

Currently, the only drugs that radically cure Plasmodium vivax malaria are 8-aminoquinoline–based drugs, which can cause hemolysis in G6PD-deficient patients. Therefore, determination of G6PD level is critical before treatment. This study evaluated tests for G6PD deficiency, including validating the correlation of quantitative reference assays, and establishing recombinant G6PD controls.

Sanitation Technology Filtering Tools

The goal of the Sanitation Service Delivery (SSD) project is to improve urban sanitation outcomes through developing scalable, market-based models that contribute to structural change within the region’s sanitation sector with an initial focus on cities in Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, and Ghana. The Sanitation Technology Filtering Tools help users identify appropriate sanitation technologies for their specific use case; the tools and workshop materials can be found below.

Using Modeled Plasmodium Vivax Prevalence Data to Estimate the Market Size for Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) Deficiency Tests in Order to Support Decision-Making on Service Delivery Models

Plasmodium vivax causes over 100 million infections annually; 8-aminoquinoline drugs can clear the parasites, but may also cause hemolysis in patients with G6PD deficiency. PATH developed GeoDX, a computer program that estimates the P. vivax burden per health facility, the total quantity of G6PD tests per country, and associated costs.

Women’s Self-Care: Products and Practices

Women’s ownership of their sexual and reproductive health (SRH) is a rights-based expression of self-determination. In this issue of Outlook on Reproductive Health, we address these rights and highlight recent information on technologies and practices with high potential to enable and expand SRH self-care, including self-administration of injectable contraception, pericoital or “on-demand” contraception, safe practice of medical abortion at home, self-testing for HIV, and vaginal self-sampling for cervical cancer screening. The available evidence demonstrates that health systems and practitioners can and should trust women with many aspects of their own care.
