Project Title: Dynamic Electronic Decision tree to Manage Sick Children
Project Description: DYNAMIC project aims improve the quality of care for children (0-12 years) in low resource settings by implementing a novel point of care-electronic clinical algorithm (ePOCT), connected to biosensors and rapid tests that helps guide and train health workers in management of sick children. ePOCT+ is a technological innovation designed to create lasting, system-wide contributions, including health worker training, reduction of antibiotic prescriptions and the systemization of data collection, management and use. It also revolutionizes... DYNAMIC project aims improve the quality of care for children (0-12 years) in low resource settings by implementing a novel point of care-electronic clinical algorithm (ePOCT), connected to biosensors and rapid tests that helps guide and train health workers in management of sick children. ePOCT+ is a technological innovation designed to create lasting, system-wide contributions, including health worker training, reduction of antibiotic prescriptions and the systemization of data collection, management and use. It also revolutionizes the clinical response to environmental changes: using machine-learning to tailor algorithms in real time, improving reactivity to outbreaks and generating reporting that allows health authorities to plan informed and targeted interventions.
