The SCAPE-CH study collected patient-reported experiences of cancer care (PREMs), which are essential for assessing the quality of health services and determining whether the health system is meeting the needs of patients (responsive care). Of the 16,963 patients invited to participate in the survey among the 21 participating cancer centers in October 2023, 7,844 completed and returned the questionnaire (46% participation rate). The results indicate a high overall level of satisfaction with the care received. Key strengths include diagnostic examinations, inpatient hospital care, and information provided about treatment options and treatments received. However, the findings also highlight areas for improvement in several key domains: support and involvement of carers, information and support regarding long-term side effects, and post-treatment support. Additionally, communication about financial assistance and social resources could be improved to better meet patients’ needs.

This project examines clinical skill gaps among healthcare workers in Rwandan primary care settings using data from a digital Clinical Decision Support Algorithm (CDSA) for pediatric care. Analyzing 20,204 consultations across 16 health centers, we identified patterns of measurement omissions and inaccuracies, leading us to observe 188 consultations and conduct interviews to understand causes. Key gaps in basic and complex measurements were found, highlighting the need for targeted training to improve CDSA data quality and enhance patient care. This research informs strategies for effective CDSA use in low-resource settings.

This is a double-blind, randomized, phase 1 study exploring safety and immunogenicity of a new vaccine technology; a gold nanoparticle/peptide vaccine designed to induce SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8 T cells.

This dataset is the product of a Bachelor thesis done for the Documentation and Data Unit (UDD) at Unisanté.
