Schwartz, MD ([email protected]) Research Letter Introduction: Measures to limit the spread of COVID-19, such as movement restrictions, are anticipated to worsen outcomes for chronic conditions such as hypertension (HTN), in part due to decreased access to medicines. However, the actual impact of lockdowns on access to medicines and HTN control has not been reported. Between March 25 and June 30, 2020, the Government of Uganda instituted a nationwide lockdown. Health facilities remained open, however motor vehicle transportation was largely banned. In Ugandan public health facili- ties, HTN services are offered widely, however the availability of HTN medicines is generally low and inconsistent. In contrast, antiretrovirals for people with HIV (PWH) are free and consist- ently available at HIV clinics.

  • Health Budget Framework Paper FY 2018/19
    Health Budget Framework Paper FY 2018/19 Sector: Health Foreword The Health Sector Budget Frame Paper (BFP) was developed within the context of the Sector Wide Approach (SWAP) premised on the Programme Based Budgeting (PBB) principles. The Sector Budget Working Group in consultation with respective programmes and sub-programmes identified the sector outcomes, outputs and planned activities for )LQDQFLDO<HDU )< DQGWKHPHGLXPWHUP The structure of the BFP for FY 2018/19 is therefore, in accordance with the Sector Programmes that link financial resources and other inputs to sector outputs and outcomes in a precise and coherent manner. The PBB provides a useful tool to improve how the sector makes decisions on allocating its resources, and helps to identify opportunities to improve the efficiency of public spending on health. PBB links outcome, output and activity performance indicators and targets with budget allocations over the medium term. This creates opportunities for efficiency-enhancing measures and redeployment of cost savings to meet priority needs. The priority actions within Programmes and the intra Programme allocations are in pursuance of an input mix that leads to the attainment of the Sector goals. Priority actions and resource allocations for the sector are guided by jointly agreed undertakings in the Health Joint Review Mission and the Sector Budget Working Group within the realm of the National Development Plan (NDP) and the Health Sector Development Plan (HSDP). Despite, the limited resource envelope to the sector notwithstanding, particular attention will be paid to areas that harness efficiency gains that will lead to improved service delivery and these include: 1. Prioritizing health promotion, prevention and early intervention with focus on improving hygiene and sanitation, integrated community case management of common conditions through the Community Health Extension Workers (CHEWS) and the introduction of the community health extension workers¶strategy.

  • Profile of Congenital Heart Disease and Access to Definitive Care Among
    Aliku et al. Journal of Congenital Cardiology (2021) 5:9 Journal of https://doi.org/10.1186/s40949-021-00064-0 Congenital Cardiology RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Profile of congenital heart disease and access to definitive care among children seen at Gulu Regional Referral Hospital in Northern Uganda: a four-year experience Twalib Aliku1*, Andrea Beaton2, Sulaiman Lubega1, Alyssa Dewyer3, Amy Scheel4, Jenipher Kamarembo5, Rose Akech5, Craig Sable2 and Peter Lwabi1 Abstract Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the profile of Congenital Heart Disease [CHD] and access to definitive surgical or catheter-based care among children attending a regional referral hospital in Northern Uganda. Methods: This was a retrospective chart review of all children aged less than 17 years attending Gulu Regional Referral Hospital Cardiac clinic from November 2013 to July 2017. Results: A total of 295 children were diagnosed with CHD during the study period. The median age at initial diagnosis was 12 months [IQR: 4–48]. Females comprised 59.3% [n = 175] of cases. Diagnosis in the neonatal period accounted for only 7.5 % [n = 22] of cases. The commonest CHD seen was ventricular septal defect [VSD] in 19.7 % [n = 58] of cases, followed by atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) in 17.3 % [n = 51] and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in 15.9 % [n = 47]. The commonest cyanotic CHD seen was tetralogy of Fallot [TOF] in 5.1 % [n = 15], followed by double outlet right ventricle [DORV] in 4.1 % [n = 12] and truncus arteriosus in 3.4% [n = 10]. Dextro-transposition of the great arteries [D-TGA] was seen in 1.3 % [n = 4].
