Although POCUS has already been shown to improve care in LMICs, the overall quality of evidence remains low. This is largely explained by the absence of needs assessment prior to POCUS implementation and by the challenges that arise when measuring significant outcomes in small, non-academic centers in LMICs.</p> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 19:29:03 +0000 Catherine Auger-Morin, Jonathan Houle, Louise Pilote 2746 at /globalhealth Healthcare seeking pathways and delays for the diagnosis of tuberculosis and treatment initiation /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-africa-healthcare-infectious-diseases/healthcare-seeking-pathways-and-delays-diagnosis-tuberculosis-and-treatment-initiation <h2>Abstract</h2> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 21:01:18 +0000 Lavanya Huria, Bolanle Olusola-Faleye, Elaine Baruwa, Lauren Rosapep, Micah Sorum, Charity Oga-Omenka, Madhukar Pai 2753 at /globalhealth Mapping mobile health clinics in Canada: lessons and solutions to deliver equitable primary care /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-americas-health-equity-healthcare/mapping-mobile-health-clinics-canada-lessons-and-solutions-deliver-equitable-primary-care <h2>Abstract</h2> <p><strong>Introduction</strong>: The delivery of healthcare in Canada has changed with the advent of new technologies ranging from telehealth to mobile health clinics.
