Improving nighttime care access for sick children in Haiti
This program tries to improve how quickly children with sudden (acute) illnesses can get help during nighttime hours in Haiti. It involves connecting families to the study team by phone and, in some cases, through a household visit.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is 10 years old or younger and has a sudden, new illness
- You can contact the TMDS study team about the illness during their open hours (including nighttime hours, if offered)
- You agree to either phone contact without signed paperwork, or written consent at home
- If a household visit happens, your child (age 7 or older) can agree to join (assent)
- There is no option to join without your consent
