Abstract

Village health workers (VHWs) in Bugoye subcounty, Uganda, provide integrated community case management (iCCM) care to children younger than 5 years for malaria, pneumonia, and diarrhea. We assessed the longevity of VHWs' skills in performing and reading malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) 4 years after initial training, comparing VHWs who had completed initial iCCM training 1 year before the study with VHWs who had completed training 4 years before the study. Both groups received quarterly refresher trainings. Trained interviewers observed 36 VHWs reading six mock RDTs each and performing an RDT as part of a larger skills assessment exercise. VHWs read 97% of mock RDTs correctly; of the 36 VHWs, 86% read all six mock RDTs correctly. Most VHWs scored either 12/13 or 13/13 on the RDT checklist (39% and 36%, respectively), with 25% scoring 11/13 or lower. For reading mock RDTs, VHWs in the first group (initial training 4 years before study) read 97% of mock RDTs correctly, whereas those in the second group (initial training 1 year before study) read 96% of mock RDTs correctly; the first group had a mean of 5.83 RDTs read correctly, compared with 5.77 RDTs read correctly in the second group ( = 0.83). For performing an RDT, the first group completed a mean of 12.0 steps correctly, compared with a mean of 12.2 correct steps in the second group ( = 0.60). Overall, VHWs demonstrated proficiency in reading RDTs accurately and performing RDTs according to protocol at least 4 years after initial iCCM training.

摘要

乌干达布戈耶县的乡村卫生工作者(VHWs)为 5 岁以下儿童提供疟疾、肺炎和腹泻的综合社区病例管理(iCCM)护理。我们评估了 VHW 进行和读取疟疾快速诊断检测(RDT)的技能的持久性,比较了在研究前一年完成初始 iCCM 培训的 VHW 和在研究前四年完成初始培训的 VHW。两组均接受季度复习培训。经过培训的访谈者观察了 36 名 VHW 每人阅读 6 次模拟 RDT,并进行了一次 RDT 作为更大技能评估练习的一部分。VHW 正确阅读了 97%的模拟 RDT;在 36 名 VHW 中,86%的人正确阅读了所有 6 个模拟 RDT。大多数 VHW 在 RDT 检查表上的得分要么为 12/13,要么为 13/13(分别为 39%和 36%),25%的得分低于 11/13。在阅读模拟 RDT 方面,第一组(研究前四年的初始培训)的 VHW 正确阅读了 97%的模拟 RDT,而第二组(研究前一年的初始培训)的 VHW 正确阅读了 96%的模拟 RDT;第一组正确阅读了 5.83 个 RDT,而第二组正确阅读了 5.77 个 RDT( = 0.83)。在进行 RDT 方面,第一组正确完成了 12.0 个步骤,而第二组正确完成了 12.2 个步骤( = 0.60)。总体而言,VHW 在初始 iCCM 培训至少 4 年后仍能熟练准确地阅读 RDT 并按方案进行 RDT。
