Epidemiologists measure disease frequency and health status in populations using various metrics. Morbidity is measured using incidence rates which describe new cases over time. Incidence can be calculated as cumulative incidence from a stable population or incidence density using person-time. Mortality is measured using rates like crude death rate from the total population or age-adjusted rates to control for demographic factors. Rates express the probability of an event and are calculated by dividing the number of events by the population at risk over a specified time period.
The document provides guidance on critically appraising research articles. It defines critical appraisal as carefully analyzing research methodology to assess validity, results, and relevance. The process examines bias and evaluates internal/external validity. Critical appraisal is important for literature reviews, program evaluation, policymaking, and more. It involves reading the abstract, introduction, methodology, results, and discussion sections to evaluate study design, measures, sample size, analysis, conclusions, and comparison to prior research. The example shows how to appraise a cohort study by assessing exposure and outcome definitions, follow up time, measurement methods, attrition, confounding, results, and applicability.
This document discusses causation and causal inference in epidemiology. It outlines concepts of single and multiple causes of disease. The Bradford Hill criteria are presented as guidelines for making causal inferences, including strengths like temporal relationship, plausibility, consistency, and dose-response relationship. Finally, it emphasizes that no single criterion proves causation but evaluating the totality of evidence using these guidelines can help strengthen causal judgments.
The document summarizes HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia across multiple topics:
1) HIV incidence in adults is estimated at 0.06% annually, corresponding to around 7,000 new cases, though a lower estimate is 0.05% or 6,000 new cases using a different method. Incidence is highest in those aged 50-64.
2) Ethiopia has made progress toward global 90-90-90 targets, with an estimated 82% of people with HIV knowing their status, 74% on antiretroviral treatment, and 66% virally suppressed.
3) Key populations include female sex workers, prisoners, divorced/widowed urban women, and long-distance drivers.
09 Predictors of Comprehensive Knowledge of HIV AIDS Among People Aged 15 49 ...AMANUELMELAKU5
This study used data from the 2016 Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey to identify individual- and community-level predictors of comprehensive knowledge of HIV/AIDS among people aged 15-49 years in Ethiopia. The study found that at the individual level, factors such as male sex, higher education levels, media exposure, ever being tested for HIV, and employment were associated with greater comprehensive knowledge. At the community level, living in urban areas and regions with more development were associated with greater comprehensive knowledge. The study concludes that both individual characteristics and community contexts influence levels of HIV/AIDS knowledge in Ethiopia.
07 Trend in ethiopia for last 26 years.pdfAMANUELMELAKU5
After declining for decades, HIV infection rates in Ethiopia have begun to rise again in recent years. While new HIV infections declined by 81% between 1995 and 2016, the rate of decline has slowed and infections have increased by 10% since 2008. Current estimates indicate that 67% of people living with HIV know their status, and Ethiopia is on track to meet treatment targets but may fall short of the first 90% diagnosis goal by 2020. Regional disparities remain, with higher infection rates in some areas like Gambela compared to the national average. Continued efforts are needed to accelerate diagnosis and avert further increases in new infections.
Ethiopia has made progress toward achieving the 90-90-90 targets but gaps remain. As of 2019:
- 87.4% of people living with HIV knew their status nationally, though some regions fell below 90%.
- 74.7% of those diagnosed were accessing treatment.
- 91.2% of those on treatment had suppressed viral loads, meeting the third 90 target.
More work is needed to improve HIV testing, linkage to care, and treatment adherence to achieve the first two 90 targets in all regions by 2020. Investing in community health services could help close remaining gaps.
The HIV epidemic in Ethiopia remains heterogeneous, with urban areas, large cities, and areas near major transport corridors experiencing higher prevalence rates than rural areas. While national HIV prevalence has remained stable at around 1.5% according to surveys, prevalence is increasing slightly in some large urban areas. HIV incidence appears to have declined based on falling prevalence in younger age groups and ANC surveillance. AIDS-related mortality has also decreased sharply. Behavioral factors like high male circumcision rates and low rates of premarital and extramarital sex have helped keep prevalence low. However, HIV transmission within marriage represents a major source of new infections. The HIV response in Ethiopia has expanded treatment coverage significantly but prevention programs need to be strengthened,
This document discusses the concept of Kaizen, a Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement. It defines Kaizen as focusing on continually improving all aspects of life and work through small, ongoing changes.

This document summarizes the conceptual foundations and development of the Balanced Scorecard approach to performance measurement. It discusses:
1. The origins of the Balanced Scorecard in the 1990s as a way to measure intangible assets and drive improvements, building on prior work studying performance measurement.
2. The evolution of the Balanced Scorecard framework from its original focus on financial and three non-financial perspectives (customers, internal processes, learning and growth) to also link measures to strategy and become a strategic management system.
3. Key thinkers and works in the 1950s-1980s that influenced the Balanced Scorecard concept, including efforts at GE to use non-financial measures, Simon's work
Long-term organizational transformations require addressing change at the individual employee level. Successful change starts with leadership committing to the change from day one and modeling the desired behaviors. Real change happens when responsibility is pushed down through the organization to line managers and individual contributors. Leaders must confront reality, demonstrate faith in the organization's future, and craft a compelling vision to guide behavior during the transformation.
This document provides a guide for auditors to assess business process reengineering projects in federal agencies. It discusses how business process reengineering began in the private sector to improve customer service and cut costs, and how federal agencies are now pursuing it to improve performance and reduce costs. The guide outlines a framework for assessing reengineering projects covering strategic planning, process analysis and redesign, implementation, and results evaluation. It aims to help auditors determine if projects are well-managed and identify actions needed for successful reengineering.
This document discusses managing readiness for change to overcome resistance to change. It begins by noting that while there is extensive literature on managing change, many change efforts still fail due to a failure to properly create readiness for change among organizational members. The document then discusses specific reasons why people may resist change and defines readiness for change as creating awareness, acceptance and capability for change. It identifies five key elements of an effective change message to create readiness: establishing a need for change, demonstrating the appropriateness of the proposed change, gaining support from principals, developing confidence that change can be successfully implemented, and communicating benefits of change for individuals. Creating readiness through an effective change message can help address resistance and increase likelihood of successful change implementation.
The document discusses the transtheoretical model of behavior change, also known as the stages of change model. It outlines the six stages that individuals progress through when adopting healthy behaviors or quitting unhealthy ones: precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, maintenance, and termination. Key aspects of each stage are described. The model also identifies ten processes of change that help individuals progress from one stage to the next, including consciousness raising, dramatic relief, and self-reevaluation. The stages of change model has been successfully applied to understanding behavior changes in various health domains like smoking cessation and weight control.
The document provides information on ETAT (Emergency Triage Assessment & Treatment), which aims to reduce child deaths in the first 24 hours of admission to hospital. It describes the objectives of ETAT training as teaching triage of children into emergency, priority, and non-urgent categories based on airway, breathing, circulation, coma/convulsions, and dehydration (ABCD) signs. The document outlines the triage process and categories, emphasizing that any child exhibiting emergency signs should receive immediate treatment. It provides guidance on assessing priority signs and directing non-urgent cases to wait.

End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) is the level of carbon dioxide that is released at the end of an exhaled breath. ETCO2 levels reflect the adequacy with which carbon dioxide (CO2) is carried in the blood back to the lungs and exhaled.
Non-invasive methods for ETCO2 measurement include capnometry and capnography. Capnometry provides a numerical value for ETCO2. In contrast, capnography delivers a more comprehensive measurement that is displayed in both graphical (waveform) and numerical form.

2. Chapter one
Understand health policy and service delivery system
Historical development of health service in Ethiopia
The challenges through the process brought the
development and application of primary health care in
rural part.
Ethiopia is a country with:-
83% of its population living in rural areas and
About nearly 80% of the disease that affect its population are
communicable disease that can easily prevented through the change of
behavioral practices.
12/26/2022 Moges S 2
3. Ethiopia previously had a health policy that focused
on curative and urban centered health services
until the government launched its new health policy
in 1993.
During the past 15 years, the FMOH has built an
impressive frame work for improving the health for
all.
12/26/2022 Moges S 3
4. There are also strategies on:-
Free service for key maternal and child health services
The training and deployment of HWs for promotion of
institutional delivery and Emergency surgery officers at
primary hospital to manage obstetric and other
surgical procedures.
In recent time primary health service coverage
reached 92% of total population with 125 hospitals,
2999 health centers, 15668 health posts and >4000
private for profit and not for profit clinics
12/26/2022 Moges S 4
5. Health policy in Ethiopia
The first health policy in Ethiopia was developed in
1993 and it mainly focuses on prevention and control
of this communicable disease.
Prevention and promotion components of health care
were given more attention by the new health policy.
12/26/2022 Moges S 5
6. The main features of 1993 Health policy of Ethiopia include:
Decentralization
expanding the PHC system, and
encouraging partnerships
the participation of the whole community in health
activities.
12/26/2022 Moges S 6
7. The strategy of the policy has been to expand
healthcare delivery at the grass roots level through
implementation of the HSEP.
The primary aim of the HSEP approach is to bring
health service delivery to the rural community at family
level where such a big percentage of the total
population lives.
12/26/2022 7
8. Organizational structure of health service delivery
In order to provide health services for the community in the
large the population and, Ethiopia used three
tier(organizational structure) system
1.Level one is a Woreda/District health system comprised of :-
Primary hospital (to cover 60,000- 100,000 people),
Health centers (15,000-25,000 population) and
Satellite Health Posts (3,000-5,000 population)
Moges S 8
12/26/2022
9. The primary hospital, health center and health posts
form a Primary Health Care Unit (PHCU).
2.Level two is a General Hospital covering a
population of 1-1.5 million people.
3.Level three is a Specialized Hospital covering a
population of 3.5-5 million people.

11. The bottom structure of health service delivery is networked
as 1 HC with 5 satellite health post.
The five satellite health posts were mainly accountable for the
cluster health center.
They identify problems together, map the problem together,
plan the cluster health problem together, implement and
evaluate together.
This will strength the system and help the implementation of
preventive, promotive and curative health service in more
integrated and complete manner.

that the satellite health post were refer their client for
further service for their cluster health center and if the
case is also above the ability of the health center then
the case will be referred to the primary hospital.
12/26/2022 Moges S 13
15. Primary health care (PHC)
The essential health care that is universally accessible
to individuals and is acceptable to them with fulfilling
certain principles.
It gained the world’s attention after the 1978
International conference on PHC held at ALMAATA.
It focuses on disease prevention and health promotion.
It is the type of health care delivery, can be described as
“by the people, of the people and for the people”.
12/26/2022 Moges S 15
16. Ethiopia is one of the countries in the world which has
adopted PHC as a national strategy since 1976.
This strategy focuses on fair access to health services
by all people throughout the country, with special
attention on prevention and control of common
disease, self- reliance and community participation.
12/26/2022 Moges S 16
17. To achieve these principles of PHC the government of
Ethiopia started to decentralize the health service
delivery system from regional to woreda and kebeles
level since 1997 through vertical health program
approach.
Vertical health program are centralized, non-
integrated and disease specific health programs.
12/26/2022 Moges S 17
18. Principles of primary health care
Accessibility (equal distribution).
Community participation
Health promotion
Appropriate technology
Inter-sectoral collaboration.
12/26/2022 Moges S 18
19. Elements of Primary Health Care
Education on health problems and how to prevent and control
them.
Dev’t of effective food supply and proper nutrition.
Maternal and child healthcare, including family planni
Adequate and safe water supply and basic sanitation.
Immunization against major infectious diseases.
Local endemic diseases control.
Appropriate treatment of common diseases and injuries.
Provision of essential basic medication
12/26/2022 Moges S 19
20. Health service extension program (HSEP)
HSEP was a tool developed to effectively implement
primary health care unit in Ethiopia.
It is an innovative, community- based programme that
was first introduced in Ethiopia in 2003.
It is used to improve equitable access to mainly
preventive health service through community based
services by applying the five principles of primary
health care.
12/26/2022 Moges S 20
21. The principle behind this programme is to make the
community produce their health by themselves.
is so an approach by which health services will bring to
the house hold level.

harmoniously together and make effective use of
resources to achieve laid-down objectives.
12/26/2022 Moges S 23
24. Concept and principles of management
Management is simply doing things through people.
As a health workers you will involve in supporting
individuals to produce their own health, in doing these
job knowingly or unknowingly you practice
management in every daily activity.
Concept of management is issue of:-
1.Effectiveness
is how well an organization, or a person in an
organization is meeting their goal.
12/26/2022 Moges S 24
25. 2.Efficiency
is a measure of how well the health sector is using its
resource to achieve that goal
Efficiency is the question of cost effectiveness.
3.Equity
is a matter of distributing resources as well as service
for all segment of the population equally.
Equity is a question of right, because every citizen has
a full right to get health service
12/26/2022 Moges S 25
26. Principle of management
Team spirit
Division of labor
Focusing on the result not activities
12/26/2022 Moges S 26
27. Team spirit
is creating an atmosphere of mutual trust and
understanding between members of a team so that you
can develop and ensure morale of your team member.
In order to utilize resource among each individual of a
team member and get benefit of working as team, as
health extension worker you have to create a team
spirit.
12/26/2022 Moges S 27
28. Division of labor;
it is an act of distributing work, among all member of
the team in equal manner.
So the role of you as a manager requires assigning a
balanced proportion of each type of worker to the work
to be done.
12/26/2022 Moges S 28
29. Focusing on the result not activities;
is to make sure that everybody within the organization has
a clear understanding of the goals and objectives, and
makes each person aware of their own roles and
responsibilities in achieving those objectives.
Goals are the outcomes you intend to achieve.
Objectives are the specific actions and measurable
steps that you need to take to achieve a goal .
12/26/2022 Moges S 29
31. Planning; it is forecasting and thinking about things
that you want to happen in the future and then working
to achieve that.
Organizing; is an act of assigning duties, grouping
tasks(put related tasks together) and allocating
resources for the planned activities.
Leading; is an act of directing, influencing and
motivating(alesasa alekaka) team members in that
community towards the plan to be implemented.
12/26/2022 Moges S 31
32. Coordination; is an act of creating team spirit between
team members towards the set plan and activities to be
performed.
Monitoring is a regular observation and recording of
activities.
Evaluation is ensuring that the planned activities were
achieved.
12/26/2022 Moges S 32
33. How can you build a team ?
Team is two or more people who work together to
achieve a common goal.
A heath team is a group of people who share common
health goal and common objectives determine by
community need to the achievement of which each
member of the team contribute in according to his or
her competent and skills and in coordination with the
function of others.
12/26/2022 Moges S 33

achievement of the common goal.
Team comprises health promoters, model
households, community leaders respected
community members, representatives of varies
community associations.
12/26/2022 Moges S 34
35. Team building is a process of selecting and creating a
team within a community.
Stages of Team building:-
Forming
Storming
Norming
Performing
12/26/2022 Moges S 35
36. Management roles and levels
A health manager is someone who spends a substantial
proportion of their time managing areas of healthcare
provision such as:
coverage of services (planning, implementation and
evaluation)
resources (staff, budgets, drugs, equipment, buildings,
information)
external relations with partners including service users.
12/26/2022 Moges S 36
37. A manager’s effectiveness is significantly influenced
by their insight into their own work.
Health sector managers often become managers after
working in a technical role within healthcare.
12/26/2022 Moges S 37
38. Management levels
In healthcare mgt there are 3 levels of managers:-
1) Top
2) middle, and
3) frontline.
Together they are responsible for the work and
performance of the health sector.
These managers have formal authority to use health
sector resources and to make decisions appropriate to
their level.
12/26/2022 Moges S 38
39. Top-level managers
called senior management or executives
they hold titles such as Minister, Head of Regional
Health Bureau, and Director.
make decisions affecting the entirety of the health
sector.
do not direct the day-to-day activities of the sector;
rather, they set goals for the health sector and direct
others to achieve them.
12/26/2022 Moges S 39
40. Middle-level managers
are those in the levels below top managers.
are responsible for carrying out the goals set by top
management.
They also set goals at their level and perhaps for other
units they are responsible for.
can motivate and assist frontline managers to achieve
the sector objectives.
They may also communicate upwards, by offering
suggestions and feedback to top managers.
12/26/2022 Moges S 40
41. Frontline managers
are responsible for the daily management of health
activities in the community.
are frontline managers of the primary health care
services
they have a very strong influence on the sector and do
have to set goals for their own work.
are the managers that interact most with the larger
community on a daily basis.
12/26/2022 Moges S 41
42. What level of management is each of these ?
Top level:-MOH,Head of Regional HB
Midle level:-HC Director
Frontline:-HEWs,HEPs
Health Volunteer Has not managerial level.
12/26/2022 Moges S 42
43. Planning health programme
Planning is the process of defining community health
problems, identifying needs and resources, establishing
priority goals, and setting out the administrative action
needed to reach those goals.
It is also important to know why you need a health care
plan.
12/26/2022 Moges S 43
