REFNo: HS2747ES
Primary
1. Measure agreement between HCW and panel RDT results in Uganda.
Secondary
2. Measure the association between key characteristics of HCWs, RDT guidelines, health systems, malaria epidemiology and patient demographics and type of agreement/disagreement between the HCW and panel RDT results.
3. Understand how characteristics of HCWs, RDT guidelines, health systems, malaria epidemiology, and patient demographics affect the ability of HCWs to accurately implement, interpret, use, record and report RDT results.
4. Assess the fidelity of data entry from health facility registers to the health management information system (HMIS).
5. Determine the degree of over- and under- treatment for malaria and associations with characteristics of HCWs, RDT guidelines, health systems, malaria epidemiology and patient demographics.
6. Determine whether there is an observer impact of the study on monthly test positivity rates (TPRs).
7. Develop a database of photos of results from various RDT brands that can be used to train an artificial intelligence application to automate the interpretation and reporting of RDTs.
8. Classify common unusual RDT results that appear in RDT photos and assess patterns of errors to guide NMP and PMI on issues related to RDT administration and case management practices.
9. Calculate the accuracy of HealthPulse (Audere, Seattle, WA), a smartphone-based application that uses artificial intelligence to interpret RDT results, compared to the panel RDT results after training on a random selection of RDT photographs.
