A general framework to support cost-efficient fecal egg count method and study design choices for large-scale STH deworming programs – monitoring of therapeutic drug efficacy as a case study

2023-01-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) control programs currently lack evidence-based recommendations for cost-efficient survey designs for monitoring and evaluation. Here, we present a framework to provide evidence-based recommendations, using a case study of therapeutic drug efficacy monitoring based on the examination of helminth eggs in stool. <h4>Methods</h4> We performed an in-depth analysis of...
