Neonatal infections are a leading cause of childhood mortality in low-resource settings. World Health Organization guidelines for outpatient treatment possible serious bacterial infection (PSBI) neonates and young infants when referral hospital is not feasible include intramuscular gentamicin (GEN) oral amoxicillin. GEN supplied as an aqueous solution sulphate vials or ampoules requires health care workers to be trained dose calculation selection appropriate based on the patient's weight...

To develop a patient-reported outcome measure for spasticity-related pain in children/adolescents (age 2-17 years) with cerebral palsy (CP), the 'Questionnaire on Pain caused by Spasticity (QPS).'Using semi-structured interview guide, concept elicitation interviews upper and lower limbs were conducted 21 children caregiver pairs. Data used to modify initial QPS modules six draft modules, which subsequently refined finalized four consecutive cognitive waves (12 pairs).To accommodate broad...
Abstract Background Pneumonia and possible serious bacterial infection (PSBI) are leading causes of death among under-five children.
