Enhancing childhood cancer outcomes in southwestern Uganda: Addressing diagnostic and treatment delays, and describing a patient cohort at the Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital
REFNo: HS7579ES
The overarching objective is to improve timely diagnosis and treatment, and outcomes for childhood cancer patients in southwestern Uganda by characterizing childhood cancer patients seen at the Paediatric Cancer unit (PCU) in MRRH, assessing the diagnostic pathways and delays, capturing experiences of caretakers and key stakeholders, and developing a context-specific referral algorithm supported by quality paediatric cancer data.
The specific objectives include:
1. To characterize the cohort of childhood cancer patients presenting to the PCU (including sociodemographic, symptom progression, clinical presentation at PCU, cancer types, diagnostics, treatments, and outcomes) using a validated database.
2. To describe the patient journey and delays at each stage of the three delays model (detailed in the figure 1) with a focus on:
a. Quantifying the average time intervals (delays) from symptom onset to confirmed diagnosis and treatment initiation of common childhood cancers, and to describe the implications of these delays on the outcomes of the patient cohort.
b. Describing the healthcare pathways and determining factors associated with duration of delays for common childhood cancers.
c. Exploring the lived experiences of caretakers of children diagnosed with cancer, from initial symptom recognition to diagnosis and treatment initiation.
d. Exploring the perceptions of key stakeholders (including healthcare providers at all levels of the healthcare system and key community informants) on childhood cancer and on its diagnosis and treatment initiation delays.
3. To collaboratively develop and refine context-specific referral decision algorithms for childhood cancers to improve early identification and referral efficiency.

2. To examine community perceptions on the impacts of climate variability on rangelands ecosystem productivity in the Awoja catchment area.
3. To examine the effectiveness of existing community based copying strategies to mitigate negative impacts of climate variability on rangeland ecosystem productivity in Awoja catchment area.
4. To design and test selected ecosystem based adaptation-EbA techniques in maintaining rangeland ecosystem productivity under climate variability scenario in Awoja catchment area.
