In 2012, the Government of Canada awarded a grant to the World Health Organization's Global Malaria Programme (GMP) to support the scale-up of integrated community case management (iCCM) of pneumonia, diarrhoea and malaria among children under 5 in sub-Saharan Africa under the Rapid Access Expansion Programme (RAcE). The two main objectives of the programme were to: (1) Contribute to the reduction of child mortality due to malaria, pneumonia and diarrhoea by increasing access to diagnostics, treatment and referral services, and (1) Stimulate policy updates in participating countries and catalyze scale-up of integrated community case management (iCCM) through documentation and dissemination of best practices. Based on the results of the implementation research and programmatic lessons, this collection provides evidence on impact and improving coverage of iCCM in routine health systems, and opportunities and challenges of implementing and sustaining delivery of iCCM at scale.
2012 年，加拿大政府向世界卫生组织全球疟疾规划署（GMP）授予了一笔赠款，以支持在撒哈拉以南非洲通过快速准入扩大方案（RAcE）扩大儿童肺炎、腹泻和疟疾综合社区管理（iCCM）的规模。该方案的两个主要目标是：（1）通过增加诊断、治疗和转介服务，为减少因疟疾、肺炎和腹泻导致的儿童死亡做出贡献，（1）通过记录和传播最佳做法，促进参与国家的政策更新，并推动综合社区病例管理（iCCM）的扩大。本文件集根据实施研究和方案经验教训的结果，提供了关于 iCCM 在常规卫生系统中的影响和覆盖率提高的证据，以及在扩大规模实施和维持 iCCM 提供方面的机遇和挑战。
