Abstract:
Background: Uganda is a low-income country with blended, tiered government health care facilities and private/non-governmental (NGO)/mission hospitals. The population is 84% rural; 100% of referral hospitals and majority of specialist physicians are urban. Summary of background data: This project compared various levels of government hospitals with private/NGO hospitals to determine adequacy to deliver emergency and essential surgical care (EESC) and anesthesia. Methods: Using the WHO Situational Analysis Tool, a representative selection of 38 hospitals (25% of Ugandan hospitals) was assessed

Abstract:
Abstract Services for people with haemophilia in Uganda are poor, resulting in a very low number of confirmed diagnoses. Over the past year, the Haemophilia Foundation of Uganda (HFU) has engaged in a concerted and coordinated media campaign focusing on radio, television and social media promoting the message that haemophilia results in painful shortened lives but is a treatable condition if appropriate services are in place. At the end of 2015, this awareness campaign culminated in a patient-screening day, along with a patient information camp. In advance of the patient testing day, a team fr

Abstract:
Introduction: Road traffic injuries (RTIs) are an important contributor to the morbidity and mortality of developing countries. In Uganda, motorcycle taxis, known as boda bodas, are responsible for a growing proportion of RTIs. This study seeks to evaluate and comment on traffic safety trends from the past decade. Methods: Traffic reports from the Ugandan police force (2009 to 2017) were analyzed for RTI characteristics. Furthermore, one month of casualty ward data in 2015 and 2018 was collected from the Mulago National Referral Hospital and reviewed for casualty demographics and trauma type.

The purpose of this study was to determine the nurses’ knowledge and practices regarding risk factors, prevention, and management of pressure ulcers at a teaching hospital in Uganda. The study employed a descriptive cross-sectional design. Fifty-six Ugandan registered practicing nurses were sampled. A composite self-administered questionnaire and an observation checklist were utilized. The nurses had limited knowledge about critical parameters of pressure ulcers.

Building supply chain coordination frameworks is a popular practice in the private sector in many developed countries. Despite this fact, in developing countries such as Uganda, the public health sector has hardly adopted this practice. Although the existing frameworks offer a good platform for measuring and improving the understanding of concepts underlying coordination dimensions at the micro-environment, they have limited capacity to analyse coordination interactions within the health sector, especially in developing countries like Uganda.

Abstract:
The study aimed at finding out whether there is a relationship between intergroup conflicts and organizational Performance, using the case of Kiboga hospital. The study contributes to the body of existing literature by laying down strategies for managing and reducing intergroup conflicts. The study employed a cross-sectional research design along with a quantitative approach. The study population was 95 of which a sample size of 76 respondents was selected using Krejcie and Morgan table. Data was collected by the use of a questionnaire which was self-administered. Data were analyzed by the use of Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) through descriptive statistics and correlation analysis. Results revealed that respondents consented that intergroup conflicts affect performance with an average mean of 4.154 and a standard deviation of 1.092. A correlation coefficient of 0.903 which is significant at 0.01, revealed that there is a significant relationship between intergroup conflicts and performance which lead to the rejection of a null hypothesis. The study concluded that moderate levels of conflicts improve performance since they stimulate thinking and creativity in decision making towards goal achievement. However, extreme levels of conflict reduce performance in terms of patient care for our case of investigation. The study recommended strategies management can employ to manage extreme levels of conflicts to improve patient care.

Abstract:
This chapter introduces the three case study areas of Ankole, Buganda, and Buhaya, located today in Uganda and Tanzania, and explains the reasoning behind their selection. Most famously, it was within these neighbouring societies that HIV became a rural as well as an urban phenomenon, and also where the mechanisms of one of the world's most successful AIDS control programmes were developed. These societies were also remarkable for their unusual experience of demographic change during the twentieth century. The chapter examines the major theories which have attempted to explain changes in sexual behaviour and attitudes, fertility, and mortality in Africa, and considers the contributions made by this study to these debates. It also discusses the sources and methodology utilised in this book, focusing particularly on the use of oral evidence, family reconstitution, and hospital maternity records.

According to WHO, “The Ebola virus can cause several viral haemorrhagic fever (VHF) outbreaks in humans with a case fatality rate of up to 90%.” On top of these physical health issues, the Ebola virus infected patients are also subjected to many psychological problems. Recently, the ebola virus had its outbreak in Uganda on May 2011. In such places, the resources are scarce and the access to hospitals is limited. Hence, there is a need for point-of-care device for the diagnosis of Ebola virus. Currently, an expensive Immunofluorescence method is used to address this need. In this paper, the au
