Hospitalization Screening Protocol for Children

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
At the time of hospitalization, by national policy, all children were offered testing for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) according to the Tanzania national guidelines for provider-initiated testing and counseling (PITC) [7 ]. All participants also underwent measurements of glucose, creatinine, hemoglobin, and urine dipstick testing as standard procedures of hospitalization at BMC and STH. Serum creatinine levels were measured using a Cobas Integra 400 Plus Analyzer (Roche Diagnostic Limited, Switzerland). An estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the bedside Schwartz equation as recommended by international guidelines [8 ]. Random blood glucose was measured using a finger stick sample (Ascensia Glucometer, Bayer Healthcare, Germany). A urine dipstick was used to test for proteinuria and hematuria (Multistix 10SG, Siemens, USA).

At the time of hospitalization, by hospital policy, all medical inpatients were offered voluntary counseling and testing for HIV and underwent measurement of glucose, creatinine, and urine dipstick testing. Serum creatinine levels were measured using a Cobas Integra 400 Plus Analyzer (Roche Diagnostic Limited, Basel, Switzerland). An estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation (without ethnic factor) as recommended by international guidelines.16 Random blood glucose was measured using a finger stick sample (Ascensia Glucometer, Bayer Healthcare, Germany). A urine dipstick was used to test for proteinuria, hematuria, and pyuria (Multistix 10SG, Siemens, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
