Rheumatic Heart Disease Community Streptococcal Treatment Program "RESET"

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the impact of a pragmatic RHD primary prevention program in Uganda. The secondary Objective are as follow: 1. To improve guideline-based care for sore throat through frontline healthcare provider education on clinical decision rules and guideline-based primary prevention. 2. To increase health seeking behavior for sore throat thorough a multifaceted community awareness campaign.

Clinical Trial Description

Our intervention is designed as a service-oriented plan to be implemented through the primary healthcare structure and facilities of both the national health and private system. Additional support will come from the education system, with participation from schools, teachers, patients, patient families, and the public. Our intervention will focus on two of the more easily rectified impediments to primary prevention, namely (1) poor uptake of guideline-based treatments for Group A Streptococcal (GAS) pharyngitis and (2) low levels of public awareness of the importance of sore throat care and treatment. ;
