Reducing maternal and congenital syphilis in Uganda. A mixed methods observational study
REFNo: HS2436ES
Qualitative objectives:
1. To understand experiences of women who test positive for syphilis during pregnancy and learn how to better support them.
2. Explore participants’ views on syphilis related birth outcome and treatment of new babies with syphilis.
3. To explore attitudes towards syphilis testing and treatment in male partners of syphilis positive women.
4. To assess barriers and enablers to elimination of maternal and congenital syphilis among stakeholders (health care workers in ANC units, policy makers-MoH).
Quantitative objectives: Through use of routinely collected data
1. To evaluate the birth outcomes in mothers who received syphilis treatment during ANC period.
2. To document number of babies who test RPR/TPHA positive at birth.
3. To document the number of partners that were notified, tested and received treatment for Syphilis
4. To assess the proportion of mothers who tested syphilis positive and those that utilized mhealth

Cerebral Oximetry, Metabolism and Perfusion for Prognosis And Management of Asphyxiated Neonates (COMPPAMAN) in eastern Uganda: a pilot study
REFNo: HS2551ES
1. To demonstrate the feasibility of monitoring cerebral tissue oxygenation (SO2), cerebral blow flow (CBF) and cerebral oxygen metabolism (CMRO2) among asphyxiated neonates and preterm infants in Jinja Regional Referral Hospital (Jinja RRH).
2. To determine evolution of post-natal cerebral hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in asphyxiated and preterm infants in the first week of life. Specifically, we will
a. Perform several (daily) NIRS measurements over days on asphyxiated and preterm infants and up to two measurements on term newborns without evidence brain injury.
b. Compare these results in the first week of life with different etiologies of brain injury (hypoxia vs IVH) and controls.
c. Correlate NIRS results with the severity of brain insults determined by ultrasound.
H2.1 Asphyxiated neonates and preterm infants have lower Day 1 CBF and CMRO2 than controls.
H2.2 The decrease in CBF and CMRO2 is in proportion to the severity of brain injury.
3. To determine the predictive values of SO2, CBF and CMRO2 in neonatal mortality in the first week of life.
Gather data as in Aim 2.
H3.1 Cerebral hemodynamics and metabolism in the first week of life are sensitive biomarkers for mortality prediction.
H3.2 Changes in CBF and CMRO2 with age will add to the predictive value of mortality model at one week of life.
