FHI 360 is pleased to present two new additions to the Moving Evidence into Action series:

National Scale-Up of Isoniazid Preventive Therapy in Cambodia<http://www.fhi360.org/NR/rdonlyres/eftxrxu6gugmrb4nluwtonxogzlgpkwtobov2cdjesmqpqtl5olfaoobex5asbd227552q2rxr6qmg/IPTCaseStudy.pdf> (PDF, 397 KB)

Preventing Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV: Implementation Starter Kit<http://www.fhi360.org/NR/rdonlyres/e5xp5yg2uuadlqgpny567sp6tiv7pta6rrpckpbu5zkxibizccv42ua75gvy7asm3rp4yxylca3a6c/ZPCTmanual20120917v9.pdf> (PDF, 1.09 MB)

The IPT case study<mailto:http://www.fhi360.org/NR/rdonlyres/eftxrxu6gugmrb4nluwtonxogzlgpkwtobov2cdjesmqpqtl5olfaoobex5asbd227552q2rxr6qmg/IPTCaseStudy.pdf> explains how key stakeholders in Cambodia have effectively scaled up the provision of IPT to prevent TB among PLHIV. It is intended to serve as an example for other countries interested in scaling up IPT - whether they are in the planning stages, are conducting IPT research or are initiating national IPT programs. More generally, it serves as an example of the national scale up of an evidence-based practice.

The PMTCT starter kit<mailto:http://www.fhi360.org/NR/rdonlyres/e5xp5yg2uuadlqgpny567sp6tiv7pta6rrpckpbu5zkxibizccv42ua75gvy7asm3rp4yxylca3a6c/ZPCTmanual20120917v9.pdf> describes and provides access to all the materials used in the Prevention of Mother-to-Child HIV Transmission (PMTCT) component of FHI 360's Zambia Prevention, Care and Treatment Partnership (ZPCT). The program resulted in a significant increase in the use of PMTCT services as well as significant reductions in the mother-to-child transmission of HIV among ZPCT clinic clients. It now serves as a model for other countries. This kit is designed to be used by program designers to replicate the success of the ZPCT PMTCT program in other settings.
