Elevate Remote CF Care

Hypothesis: The development of patient-focused tools and care processes will enable a transition from predominantly office-based CF care to a more convenient, co-produced model. The increased utilization of remote care will be associated with improved adherence to disease monitoring and complication screening guidelines and will increase patient satisfaction. Specific Aims: 1. Customize a patient-facing smartphone application (Nudge) designed to "coach" each patient toward a co-produced goal of convenient and effective health monitoring within the context of enhanced remote care. 2. Develop care processes that facilitate monitoring of respiratory status at home, using home spirometry and remote sputum collection, that include education, electronic reminders, and specimen collection/shipping supplies 3. Implement care processes that allow convenient access to necessary screening procedures, using the Nudge application to provide well-timed electronic reminders and track performance of screening tests.

Evaluating the impact of solar home system adoption on human well-being in Malawi

Only 11% of Malawi's population has access to electricity. Solar home systems offer a low cost source of reneweable energy to households without access to reliable and affordable electricity grid infrastructure. Our study explores the impact of adoption and use of solar home systems on access to lighting services, access to charging services for phones and appliances, and overall well-being as a result of improvements in living conditions. We hope to inform policy makers in Southern Africa about the potential and limitations of supporting solar home systems uptake as a strategy for addressing severe energy access in the region.

gonorrhoeae prevalence among women seeking care for abnormal vaginal discharge and lower abdominal pain in Lilongwe, Malawi

The utility of syndromic management for STIs is predicated on up-to-date information on the etiologies of the syndromes being treated. Periodic assessments of N. gonorrhoeae among women presenting to care with LAP and AVD+ are important for treatment guidelines. Additionally, assessing pharyngeal N. gonorrhoeae among women with genital infections, which has never been done in this population, is critical to ensure adequate treatment and prevent AMR.
