KNOWLEDGE OF ALARM SIGNS OF STROKE AMONG
CARETAKERS OF STROKE PATIENTS AND FIRST CONTACT
HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS AT TWO TERTIARY REFERRAL
HOSPITALS IN UGANDA
REFNo: HS5181ES
General objective.
To describe how well the alarm stroke signs summarized in the BE-FAST mnemonic are known by acute stroke patients’ caretakers and first contact stroke health care providers and how this knowledge by the acute stroke patients’ caretakers affects time of arrival of stroke patients to stroke services in the two major stroke referral hospitals in the country.
Specific objectives:
> To describe the knowledge of the BE-FAST acute stroke symptoms and signs by the first contact stroke health care providers in the two major stroke referral hospitals in Kampala, Uganda
> To describe the knowledge of the BE-FAST acute stroke symptoms and signs by the acute stroke patients’ bedside caretakers in the two major stroke referral hospitals in Kampala, Uganda.
> To demonstrate the relationship between knowledge of BE-FAST acute stroke alarm signs by stroke patient caretakers and time of arrival of their stroke patients to hospital stroke services in in
the two major stroke referral hospitals in Kampala, Uganda.

Investigation of Tribomechanical Properties of Aluminium (AA6061) Reinforced with Hybridized Agro-Marine Waste for Automotive Applications
REFNo: SIR428ES
Main Objective
This research aims to investigate the tribomechanical properties of Aluminum (AA6061) reinforced with hybridized agro-marine waste particle composites (AMWPCs) for enhanced automotive applications.
Specific Objectives
1. To assess tensile, compressive strength, and hardness characteristics of AMWPCs for ascertaining the material\'s strength under various loading conditions, and resistance to indentation or scratching respectively.
2. To investigate flexural strength, impact, and fatigue resistance of AMWPCs under dynamic loading conditions.
3. To evaluate the tribological effects and wear resistance of AMWPCs in enduring wear and friction.
4. To examine the material\'s microstructure and elemental composition using FTIR, SEM/EDS.
5. To Analyze AMWPCs phase transitions and thermal stability using DTA, and TGA.

NEOSEPSIS Project: Reducing neonatal and maternal mortality by rapid detection of sepsis in resource-limited environments
REFNo: HS5058ES
1) Explore and evaluate potential distribution channels and market entry strategies for the NeoSep SAA test. 2) Identify and analyze the barriers that may impede the widespread adoption of the NeoSep SAA test. 3) Determine the cost-effectiveness of implementing the NeoSep SAA test in clinical settings in healthcare resource limited settings and systems. 4) Assess the NeoSep SAA test’s performance as compared to CRP test. 5) Evaluate the applicability of the NeoSep SAA test for the detection of maternal sepsis occurring after the first five days of birth. 6) Assess the NeoSep SAA test’s utility in monitoring response to antibiotic therapy in neonates who have undergone treatment for sepsis.7) Evaluate the diagnostic performance of the optimized NeoSep SAA test for neonatal sepsis by evaluating its sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV.
