New push to treat parasitic worms in toddlers
NCT ID NCT06698510
Summary
This study aims to find the best way to give a child-friendly deworming medicine to preschool-aged children in parts of Africa where schistosomiasis (a parasitic worm infection) is common. It will test different community distribution methods, like health campaigns, to see which ones reach the most children and are easiest to run. The goal is to improve control of the disease in young children who are often missed by current treatment programs.
