Viral causes of acute respiratory illness among hospitalized children in Kasese District, Uganda:an observational cohort study.
REFNo: HS5218ES
Primary Objectives
The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility of implementing rapid molecular diagnostic test and assess the burden and epidemiology of influenza subtypes A and B, SARS- CoV-2, and RSV among pediatric patients hospitalized for ARI in Kasese District, Uganda.
Specific Aims
Determine the feasibility of implementing a rapid molecular diagnostic testing program at peripheral health centers in rural western Uganda. We will measure the number of eligible children consenting to testing, the number of tests performed, the median time from sample collection to result, and the number of invalid test results due to either operator error or equipment issues.
Measure the proportion of pediatric hospitalizations for ARI attributable to SARS-CoV-2, influenza subtype A and B, and RSV in communities with different population densities in Kasese district. We will enroll children admitted with ARI, test a nasopharyngeal swab for influenza, SARS-CoV-
2 and RSV using the Cepheid GeneXpert platform, and document participant demographic information.
Describe the clinical presentation and management for patients admitted with respiratory illness to health facilities in Kasese District. We will record the vaccination history, presenting symptoms, diagnoses, and treatments administered, including antibiotics. We will also follow-up all enrolled participants two weeks after admission to determine illness outcomes. We will compare these variables between those who test positive and those who test negative for SARS-CoV-2, influenza, and RSV.
