Ansermino J, Pillay Y, Tagoola A, Zhang C, Dunsmuir D, Kamau S, et al.
PLOS Digit Health . 2025 Mar; 4(3):e0000466. PMID: 40063663
Sepsis occurs predominantly in low-middle-income countries. Sub-optimal triage contributes to poor early case recognition and outcomes from sepsis. Improved recognition and quality of care can lead to improved outcomes. We...

PLOS Glob Public Health . 2025 Jan; 5(1):e0003097. PMID: 39775211
Pneumonia is the leading cause of death in children globally. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) pneumonia diagnosis relies on accurate assessment of respiratory rate, which can be unreliable when...

Kamau S, Kigo J, Mwaniki P, Dunsmuir D, Pillay Y, Zhang C, et al.
PLOS Digit Health . 2024 Aug; 3(8):e0000408. PMID: 39088404
Several triage systems have been developed, but little is known about their performance in low-resource settings. Evaluating and comparing novel triage systems to existing triage scales provides essential information about...

Zhang C, Wiens M, Dunsmuir D, Pillay Y, Huxford C, Kimutai D, et al.
PLOS Digit Health . 2024 Jul; 3(7):e0000311. PMID: 38949998
Infectious diseases in neonates account for half of the under-five mortality in low- and middle-income countries. Data-driven algorithms such as clinical prediction models can be used to efficiently detect critically...

Kigo J, Kamau S, Mawji A, Mwaniki P, Dunsmuir D, Pillay Y, et al.
PLOS Digit Health . 2024 Jun; 3(6):e0000293. PMID: 38905166
Models for digital triage of sick children at emergency departments of hospitals in resource poor settings have been developed. However, prior to their adoption, external validation should be performed to...

Wiens M, Nguyen V, Bone J, Kumbakumba E, Businge S, Tagoola A, et al.
PLOS Glob Public Health . 2024 Apr; 4(4):e0003050. PMID: 38683787
In many low-income countries, over five percent of hospitalized children die following hospital discharge. The lack of available tools to identify those at risk of post-discharge mortality has limited the...

Glob Health Sci Pract . 2023 Aug; 11(4). PMID: 37640488
Background: In low- and middle-income countries, health workers use pulse oximeters for intermittent spot measurements of oxygen saturation (SpO2). However, the accuracy and reliability of pulse oximeters for spot measurements...
