Field testing of a portable low-cost diagnostic for the automated diagnosis of soil transmitted helminth infections from Kato-Katz thick faecal smears
REFNo: HS2431ES
Our plan of work is to travel to Uganda, where we will initially stay in Kampala, Uganda to prepare any equipment that needs to be purchased in-country (including reagents, consumables and treatment), and engage with stakeholders at the MOHU and Vector Control Division (VCD). We will then embark on a 14-day field study, travelling to an endemic area in the Tororo district. Samples will be taken from patients and analysed using gold standard diagnostic methods and the novel portable diagnostic. Clinical diagnoses will be made using gold standard microscopy by trained technician, and the efficacy of the investigational device will be compared to these diagnoses. Feedback of technicians will also be gathered during practical demonstrations, to inform a development and translation roadmap.
