Local health workers armed with phones and tapes in fight against child wasting

NCT ID NCT06441305

Summary

This study is testing a community program to help more severely malnourished children get treatment in Kenya. Local health workers will be equipped with smartphones and simple tools to train families to screen their own children for dangerous weight loss. The goal is to see if this approach helps identify sick children earlier and gets them into treatment programs faster.
