Kwashiorkor Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Benefit of Antihelminthic Therapy in the Community-Based Treatment of Severe Acute Malnutrition in Malawian Children
The benefit of anti-worm therapy as part of the case management of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in the outpatient setting has not previously been studied. This study will compare recovery rates of children with SAM treated in the community with locally-produced ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) with and without prescribed albendazole as part of their case management.
