A narrow focus on measurable inputs, originating from priorities set at global and national levels, influence frontline care practices with negative consequences for quality of care and patient outcomes. Greater emphasis on improving routine process of care can enhance the effectiveness of the PMDT model of care. Practice theory provides a robust analytical framework to critically interrogate health systems and healthcare provision.

Delayed TB diagnosis and treatment perpetuate the high burden of TB-related morbidity and mortality in resource-constrained settings. We explored the potential of COVID-19 to further compromise TB care engagement in Zambia. From April to May 2020, we purposefully selected 17 adults newly diagnosed with TB from three public health facilities in Lusaka, Zambia, for in-depth phone interviews. We conducted thematic analyses using a hybrid approach. The majority of participants were highly concerned about the impact of lockdowns on their financial security. Most were not worried about being diagnosed with COVID-19 when seeking care for their illness because they felt unwell prior to the outbreak; however, they were very worried about contracting COVID-19 during clinic visits. COVID-19 was perceived as a greater threat than TB as it is highly transmittable and there is no treatment for it, which provoked fear of social isolation and of death among participants in case they contracted it. Nonetheless, participants reported willingness to continue with TB medication and the clinic visits required to improve their health. The COVID-19 pandemic did not appear to deter care-seeking for TB by patients. However, messaging on TB in the era of COVID-19 must encourage timely care-seeking by informing people of infection control measures taken at health facilities.

Peri-urban health facilities providing HIV and TB care in Zambia. To evaluate 1) the impact of Xpert MTB/RIF on time-to-diagnosis, treatment initiation, and outcomes among adult people living with HIV (PLHIV) on antiretroviral therapy (ART); and 2) the diagnostic performance of Xpert and Determine™ TB-LAM Ag assays. Quasi-experimental study design with the first cohort evaluated per standard-of-care (SOC; first sputum tested using smear microscopy) and the second cohort per an algorithm using Xpert as initial test (intervention phase; IP). Xpert testing was provided onsite in Chongwe District, while samples were transported 5-10 km in Kafue District. TB was confirmed using mycobacterial culture. Among 1350 PLHIV enrolled, 156 (15.4%) had confirmed TB. Time from TB evaluation to diagnosis ( = 0.018), and from evaluation to treatment initiation ( = 0.03) was significantly shorter for IP than for SOC. There was no difference in all-cause mortality (7.0% vs. 8.6%). TB-LAM Ag showed higher sensitivity with lower CD4 cell count 81.8% at CD4 < 50 cells/mm vs. 31.7% overall. Xpert improved time to diagnosis and treatment initiation, but there was no difference in all-cause mortality. High sensitivity of Determine TB-LAM Ag at lower CD4 count supports increased use in settings providing care to PLHIV, particularly with advanced HIV disease. Xpert improved time to diagnosis and treatment initiation, but there was no difference in all-cause mortality. High sensitivity of Determine TB-LAM Ag at lower CD4 count supports increased use in settings providing care to PLHIV, particularly with advanced HIV disease.Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for insulin-dependent diabetes that associates end-stage diabetic nephropathy, since it achieves not only a clear improvement in the quality of life, but also provides a long-term survival advantage over isolated kidney transplant. However, pancreas transplantation still has the highest rate of surgical complications among organ transplants. More than 70% of early graft losses are attributed to technical failures, that is, to a non-immunological cause. The so-called technical failures include graft thrombosis, bleeding, infection, pancreatitis, anastomotic leak and pancreatic fistula. Pancreatic graft thrombosis leads these technical complications as the most frequent cause of early graft loss. Currently most recipients receive postoperative anticoagulation with the aim of reducing the rate of thrombosis. Hemoperitoneum in the early postoperative period is a frequent cause of relaparotomy, but it is not usually associated with graft loss. The incidence of hemoperitoneum is clearly related to the use of anticoagulation in the postoperative period. Post-transplant pancreatitis is another cause of early postoperative complications, less frequent than the previous. In this review, we analyze the most common surgical complications that determine pancreatic graft losses.To summarize the long-term complications after pancreas transplantation that affect graft function, a literature search was carried out on the long-term complications of pancreatic transplantation, namely, complications from postoperative 3rd mo onwards, in terms of loss of graft function, late infection and vascular complications as pseudoaneurysms. https://www.selleckchem.com/ The most relevant reviews and studies were selected to obtain the current evidence on these topics. The definition of graft failure varies among different studies, so it is difficult to evaluate, a standardized definition is of utmost importance to know the magnitude of the problem in all worldwide series. Chronic rejection is the main cause of long-term graft failure, occurring in 10% of patients. From the 3rd mo of transplantation onwards, the main risk factor for late infections is immunosuppression, and patients have opportunistic infections like Cytomegalovirus, hepatitis B and C viruses, Epstein-Barr virus and varicella-zoster virus; opportunistic bacteria, reactivation of latent infections as tuberculosis or fungal infections.
