Brief Summary:
The IRAM Chad impact evaluation will be based on a cluster randomized controlled trial to study the impact of the integrated and multisectoral services package PASIM aimed at reducing the incidence and prevalence of wasting through integrated interventions including among other things strengthening the activity of community care groups food supplementation water treatment and screening for wasting conducted by families
Detailed Description:
The general objective of the integrated and multisectoral services package PASIM is to reduce the incidence and prevalence of wasting through integrated interventions including among other things strengthening the activity of community care groups The members of the care groups conduct home visits to children aged 6-23 months or up to 59 months when the children are under treatment for wasting or have been discharged in the previous 6 months to deliver messages for behavioral change related to complementary feeding health and hygiene deliver nutritional supplement and water purification inputs improve screening coverage training and supervision of families to take the Mid-Upper Arm Circumference measurements referral of malnourished cases and verify adherence to treatment of malnourished cases in the health district of Mongo Guéra province Chad Central Africa
The evaluation of the impact of PASIM will be based on a cluster randomized controlled trial consisting of 100 villages or clusters of villages The selected evaluation model will be that of a comparison of control groups n50 no implementation of the intervention and intervention n50 through the follow-up of 3 cohorts
1 Longitudinal in-home follow-up of a semi-open cohort of 1750 children aged 6 months at enrollment included continuously for 7 months and all followed through to the end of the study which will last 9 months in total
2 Longitudinal follow-up of all children aged 6-23 months enrolled for wasting treatment based on health system records
3 Longitudinal follow-up at home for 6 months of a closed cohort of 700 children aged 6-23 months at inclusion discharged from a treatment for acute malnutrition
The primary impact results are as follows
The longitudinal prevalence of wasting at the end of the study Cohort 1
The recovery rate Cohort 2
The incidence of relapse during the 11 months of the intervention Cohort 3
Secondary impact results include but are not limited to
The incidence of wasting during the 11 months of the intervention Cohort 1
The screening coverage cohorts 1 and 3
The proportion of wasting cases enrolled in a treatment program cohorts 1 and 3
The adherence to treatment cohort 2 during the 11 months of the intervention
