Determinants of neonatal seizure among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units in the Awi Zone hospitals, 2023: A multi-center unmatched case control study.

Background: Neonatal seizure is a common medical emergency that signals severe insult to the neonatal brain. It is a major risk factor for neonatal morbidity and mortality. It has a wide worldwide variation, ranging from 5 per 1000 live births in the United States of America to 39.

Pediatric Shock: The Magnitude, Its Determinants and Short-Term Outcome on Patients. A Cross-Sectional Hospital-Based Study.

Background: Pediatric shock is a potentially fatal illness which develops after a systemic circulatory system failure in children. It appears to be a common emergency in children and produces substantial morbidity and mortality particularly if there is no early identification and therapy. The extent and causes of shock-induced death among children in Ethiopia have not been sufficiently studied.

Spinal magnetic stimulation to treat chronic back pain: a feasibility study in veterans.

Chronic low back pain represents a significant societal problem leading to increased healthcare costs and quality of life. This study was designed to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of non-invasive spinal electromagnetic simulation (SEMS) to treat nonspecific chronic low back pain (CLBP). A single-site prospective study was conducted to evaluate SEMS in reducing pain and improving disability.

"We don't trust all data coming from all facilities": factors influencing the quality of care network data quality in Ethiopia.

Background: Good quality data are a key to quality health care. In 2017, WHO has launched the Quality of Care Network (QCN) to reduce maternal, newborn and stillbirth mortality via learning and sharing networks. Guided by the principle of equity and dignity, the network members agreed to implement the programme in 2017-2021.

Influences on policy-formulation, decision-making, organisation and management for maternal, newborn and child health in Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Malawi and Uganda: The roles and legitimacy of a multi-country network.

The Network for Improving Quality of Care for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (QCN) is intended to facilitate learning, action, leadership and accountability for improving quality of care in member countries. This requires legitimacy-a network's right to exert power within national contexts. This is reflected, for example, in a government's buy-in and perceived ownership of the work of the network.
