Epidemiological Profile

The objective of this cross-sectional study was to determine the type of care that can be achieved and the epidemiological profile of patients attending the 3 public dental practices in the Haut-Sassandra region, in Côte d’Ivoire. The data collection concerned socio-demographic characteristics, reason for consultation, oral hygiene, dental condition, malocclusions and the availability of equipment for the performance of procedures. The 400 patients observed (51.5% male) were aged 16.0 to 86.0 years (mean=35.5 years; SD=13.1 years). The main reasons for consultation were pain (91.5%) and aesthetics (23.5%). Oral hygiene was insufficient for 36.8% of subjects. Oral conditions were malocclusions (12.8%), caries (98.7%) and edentulous (65.7%) with only 11.8% with prosthesis. The average DMFT index was 9.3. Only extractions and resin attached prostheses were possible in all 3 health facilities. Preventive dentistry (sealent, fluoridation), dentofacial orthopedics and implantology were not available in any dental practice. The most frequently performed acts were extractions (74.5%). The results of this study highlight the need for oral health planning with service equipment and awareness among populations who shouldn’t wait until they are in pain to consult.

Abstract BackgroundIn West Africa, pig meat, known as pork, is often supplied by traditional farms in rural districts. This practice causes significant sanitary risk because of the lack of veterinary control of farms and slaughterhouses in rural districts. This study aims to describe pig breeding practices used in southern Côte d'Ivoire to establish a surveillance system for cysticercosis disease. This survey was conducted among traditional pig producers living in villages surrounding Dabou, Aboisso, and Agboville. The data collected focused on the profile of producers and the characteristics of the farms.ResultsA total of 321 pig producers were identified (Dabou 72 (22.4%), Aboisso 26 (8.1%), and Agboville 223 (69.5%)). Most of the herders were male (87.8%). The total count of animals was 3,663 heads of pigs, with mostly youngpiglets (60.2%) and sow (29.3%). The local race was predominant (80.6 %) for only 15.5% of half-caste races. Most of the farms used permanent divagation rearing (53.3%). Following examination, random samples of pigs were tracked in all the selected villages using the quota methods. Animals' blood samples and serums were analyzed using Ac-ELISA and Western Blot. Out of the selected 639 animals, 13.2 % had antibodies against cysticercosis with considerable variations from one village to another.ConclusionsThe study highlighted that, in these regions, pig farming remains essentially traditional, with free grazing of animals, which constitutes a significant sanitary risk, especially for Taenia solium.

ObjectiveTo assess and compare the quality of intrapartum and immediate postpartum care across levels of healthcare in Burkina Faso and Côte d’Ivoire using validated process indicators.DesignHealth facility-based cross-sectional study with direct observation of healthcare workers’ practices while caring for mother–newborn pairs during intrapartum and immediate postpartum periods.SettingPrimary healthcare facilities and their corresponding referral hospitals in the Central-North region in Burkina Faso and the Agneby-Tiassa-Mé region in Côte d’Ivoire.ParticipantsHealthcare providers who care for mother–newborn pairs during intrapartum and immediate postpartum periods, the labouring women and their newborns after childbirth.Main outcome measure(s)Adherence to essential best practices (EBPs) at four pause points in each birth event and the overall quality score based on the level of adherence to the set of EBPs observed for a selected pause point.ResultsA total of 532 and 627 labouring women were included in Burkina Faso and Côte d’Ivoire, respectively. Overall, the compliance with EBPs was insufficient at all the four pause points, even though it varied widely from one EBP to another. The adherence was very low with respect to hand hygiene practices: the care provider wore sterile gloves for vaginal examination in only 7.96% cases (95% CI 5.66% to 11.06%) in Burkina Faso and the care provider washed hands before examination in 6.71% cases (95% CI 3.94% to 11.20%) in Côte d’Ivoire. The adherence was very high with respect to thermal management of newborns in both countries (>90%). The overall mean quality scores were consistently higher in referral hospitals in Burkina Faso at all pause points excluding immediate post partum.ConclusionsWomen delivering in healthcare facilities do not always receive proven EBPs needed to prevent poor childbirth outcomes. There is a need for quality improvement interventions.
