NCT ID: NCT06312592 Not yet recruiting - Mental Health Issue Clinical Trials

GBV Prevention, Mitigation, and Response in Colombia

Start date: March 11, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

As of August 2021, Colombia hosts the vast majority of Venezuelan refugees and migrants (UNHCR, 2022). For vulnerable refugees and migrants in Colombia, and especially for women, gender-based violence (GBV) is present during transit and continues in their new homes where xenophobia, lack of accessible and adequate services, lack of safe economic opportunities, and lack of information on access to services, further increase risk. Lack of livelihood opportunities also affect vulnerable refugees and migrants, especially women, with barriers to employment including lack of information; precarious working conditions with lower payments and longer working days with increasing risks of labor exploitation; xenophobia and discrimination; limited access to formal labor markets; lack of access to financial services, among others. To address these issues, the investigators are conducting a pilot randomized-controlled trial (RCT) of HIAS' Entrepreneurship School with Gender Lens (ESGL), a methodology that targets GBV survivors and women at-risk to help them develop business ideas, access needed support for the prevention of and response to GBV, exploitation and trafficking, and improve participants' overall self-reliance. The pilot RCT will be conducted within four cities in Colombia; approximately 80 eligible participants will be enrolled in each city and randomized to a treatment or control arm in a 2:1 ratio. Survey questionnaires will be administered to participants at baseline, eight months following baseline (endline), and 3-4 months after endline. Outcomes of interest include household self-reliance, mental health, empowerment, decision-making, and GBV risk and knowledge.

NCT ID: NCT06309875 Not yet recruiting - Heart Failure Clinical Trials

Effect of the PLAN CUIDARTE on the Caregiving Competence of People With Heart Failure

PLANCUIDARTE
Start date: March 25, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2021 cardiovascular diseases (CVD) will be a public health problem, among them heart failure (HF), since this is a chronic disease, patients should be competent in their care. Despite the above, according to research conducted in Colombia, 59.7% of people with chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) have a level of care competence considered not optimal; patients report not having sufficient knowledge of the disease or experience feelings of lack of tools for the management of symptoms and the challenges of post-hospitalization. The objective of the research is to determine the effect of the PLAN CUIDARTE on the caregiving competence of people with HF Methodology: Pre-posttest randomized clinical trial, with blinding of the participants, where the intervention "PLAN CUIDARTE" is applied and the initial and subsequent caregiving competence is evaluated in the comparison group and in the intervention group for pretest - posttest and between-group comparisons.

NCT ID: NCT06268691 Completed - Dengue Clinical Trials

Sustainable Reduction of Dengue in Colombia: Vector Breeding Site Intervention With an Insecticidal Coating

Start date: February 4, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Effective control of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in breeding sites with high reproductive rates could have a major impact on reducing arbovirosis in endemic communities. The application of a safe, effective, low cost and sustained insecticide coating (IC) could be an affordable response to dengue for local health services. Therefore, a cluster randomised trial for the application of a new vector control tool (insecticidal coating of water containers) was conducted in the metropolitan area of Cúcuta, Colombia. The IC is an aqueous solution containing polymeric microcapsules of insecticides and insect growth regulators (pyriproxyfen-PPF (0.063%) and alphacypermertrin-ACM (0.07%) in suspension, without interaction between them, development by INESFLY®, Spain. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the control of the main breeding sites of Aedes mosquitoes, through the application of insecticide coating, in clusters of dwellings, could reduce dengue transmission in a sustainable way, compared to untreated clusters, in Cúcuta, Colombia. Whether the control of the main breeding sites of Aedes mosquitoes through the application of insecticide coating, in clusters of dwellings, could reduce the Aedes Indices in a sustainable way, compared to untreated clusters. The initial preparation phases: i) socialization ii) A safety evaluation to determine the health risks of IC in domestic water containers; iii) The determination of the effects and efficacy of IC on Aedes aegypti. The Baseline study to characterise the study clusters from entomological, epidemiological and socio-economic approaches was carried out in 2019-2020. The IC application phase in the intervention arm was carried out between Nov-2021 and Jan-2022, with the respective monitoring of the safety of IC use. This was followed by entomological monitoring. Finally, the 9-month post-intervention evaluation. Epidemiological data were obtained from the National Public Health Surveillance System - SIVIGILA. The study was conducted in 20 clusters of 2000 dwellings each, where 10 clusters were randomly assigned to the control arm and 10 clusters to the intervention arm. In order to determine the effect of IC application in household tanks, the dengue incidence and entomological indices are compared in the study clusters. The data are analysed under the difference in difference approach. Additionally, the acceptance of IC in the intervened communities and local health services is determined.
