Implementation of Smart Triage combined with a quality improvement program for children presenting to facilities in Kenya and Uganda: An interrupted time series analysis
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...

Comparison between the Smart Triage model and the Emergency Triage Assessment and Treatment guidelines in triaging children presenting to the emergency departments of two public hospitals in Kenya
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...

Geographical validation of the Smart Triage Model by age group
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...
