'Accelerating Case Detection of Tuberculosis in Ghana' Project
‘Accelerating case detection of tuberculosis in Ghana’ Project Progress Report no. 15 September 2017 27 systems installed ….. In July and early August, 2 fixed systems were installed in Western region (Prestea hospital and Ahmadiyya hospital, Daboase) and 3 containerized systems were installed in Tamale Central hospital (Northern region) and Twifo Praso and Abura Dunkwa in Central region. The installation of a fixed system in Half Assini has been postponed because the hospital could not yet complete their X-ray room. For more information see the overview on page 2. Ahmadiyya hospital Daboase Twifo Praso hospital room installation container installation We are expecting shipment 8 with 4 containerized and 3 fixed systems to arrive around 19th of September and hope to install these systems in October. TB-Screening vans for National Tuberculosis Control Program Early September 2 TB-screening vans arrived at Temporal Central Medical Stores of Ghana Health Service at Spintex road. Engineers from Oldelft and Universal Delft will assemble the X-ray equipment in the vans before the end of the month September. Page 1 of 2 Capacity Building: training for radiographers On 19th and 20th July 15 radiographers from beneficiary hospitals were trained at Universal Delft’s Training Centre in North-Dzorwulu. Main subject was in-depth application training. Other topics addressed, were radiation safety, infection control, CAD4TB and project-information. There was enough time for on-hands training as there is demonstration equipment available at the venue. -
Use of Proscribed Chloroquine Is Associated with an Increased Risk Of
Asare et al. Malaria Journal 2014, 13:246 http://www.malariajournal.com/content/13/1/246 RESEARCH Open Access Use of proscribed chloroquine is associated with an increased risk of pfcrt T76 mutation in some parts of Ghana Kwame K Asare1, Johnson N Boampong1*, Richmond Afoakwah1, Elvis O Ameyaw1, Rakesh Sehgal2 and Neils B Quashie3 Abstract Background: After years of disuse of chloroquine (CQ) as first-line anti-malarial drug in Ghana, reports from molecular studies conducted in parts of the country indicate varying prevalence of T76 mutation in the pfcrt gene. This situation has several health implications, one being that mutations that confer resistance to CQ have been reported to show substantial cross-resistance to other anti-malarial drugs. It is important to identify some of the factors contributing to the continuous presence of CQ resistance markers in the country. This study determined the prevalence of T76 mutation in pfcrt gene of Plasmodium falciparum isolates collected from selected areas of the Central region of Ghana and correlated with the level of CQ use in these areas. Methods: Plasmodium falciparum DNA was extracted from collected blood-blot filter paper samples in the study sites. The prevalence of T76 point mutation in pfcrt gene was assessed using nested PCR followed by RFLP. CQ from pharmacy and chemical shops was obtained using mystery buying method. The extent of CQ use by the participants was determined by measuring the level of the drug in their urine samples using the Saker-Solomon method. Results: Of the 214 P. falciparum isolates analysed, 71.9% were found to have T76 mutation of pfcrt gene. -

Small and Medium Forest Enterprises in Ghana
Small and Medium Forest Enterprises in Ghana Small and medium forest enterprises (SMFEs) serve as the main or additional source of income for more than three million Ghanaians and can be broadly categorised into wood forest products, non-wood forest products and forest services. Many of these SMFEs are informal, untaxed and largely invisible within state forest planning and management. Pressure on the forest resource within Ghana is growing, due to both domestic and international demand for forest products and services. The need to improve the sustainability and livelihood contribution of SMFEs has become a policy priority, both in the search for a legal timber export trade within the Voluntary Small and Medium Partnership Agreement (VPA) linked to the European Union Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (EU FLEGT) Action Plan, and in the quest to develop a national Forest Enterprises strategy for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD). This sourcebook aims to shed new light on the multiple SMFE sub-sectors that in Ghana operate within Ghana and the challenges they face. Chapter one presents some characteristics of SMFEs in Ghana. Chapter two presents information on what goes into establishing a small business and the obligations for small businesses and Ghana Government’s initiatives on small enterprises. Chapter three presents profiles of the key SMFE subsectors in Ghana including: akpeteshie (local gin), bamboo and rattan household goods, black pepper, bushmeat, chainsaw lumber, charcoal, chewsticks, cola, community-based ecotourism, essential oils, ginger, honey, medicinal products, mortar and pestles, mushrooms, shea butter, snails, tertiary wood processing and wood carving. -

Accessibility to Health Care: a Survey-Based
Amogh Sivarapatna Department of Biomedical Engineering Advisor: Robert Swap, Ph.D. Department of Environmental Sciences One ophthalmologist for every 500,000 people in Ghana Translates to 45 eye doctors for a population of 26 million Those who are blind in Africa have a four times higher mortality rate From World Health Organization Around 7.1 of the world's 38 million blind people live in sub- Saharan Africa (Lewallen et al., 2001) 80% of blindness is preventable Cataracts are the most common cause of blindness in the developing world, followed by trachoma Preventative education can significantly reduce cases Often times, only a 20 minute surgical procedure can restore sight WHO Data Determine barriers that individual patients face in receiving eye health care in rural communities outside Accra Why are patients in extreme poverty not able to access medical care? Major issues of concern: Financial Education related Awareness Location Transportation Survey-based approach to identify barriers (n = 140) 20 random patients (> age 20) interviewed during each Unite for Sight outreach effort Use of translator Interview questions: “Is this your first time getting your eyes checked?” “What barriers or obstacles did you face in receiving eye health care?” “What would you consider as the major obstacle you faced in receiving eye health care?” Outreach effort in Kpone, Ghana Strong correlation between the rurality of the village (distance from the capital) and the patient’s ability to receive care Lack of finances and awareness presented to be the two most frequent obstacles encountered In one hospital (Juaso Hospital - Asante Akim South District), 76% of patients from a random sample of 55 reported that it was their first time getting their eyes checked. -
