“…Data from 10 studies that reported on general patient populations were considered for analysis of the primary outcome, but only six studies could be used for this analysis because two did not report specific diagnostic categories and the other two did so using International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD‐10) disease categories (Appendix S3.2). We found that among the general patient population, the majority of blood products were used for the following diagnostic categories: pediatric malaria (20%), sickle cell anemia (18%), obstetric hemorrhage (16%), and other causes of bleeding (16%), as shown in Fig.…”

“…and Appendix S3.2. The six studies used to determine the primary outcome were conducted in only 5 of the 49 countries across SSA, in which 37,195 products were transfused to 33,229 patients (Appendices S3.1 and S3.2). Seven of the 10 general studies also reported on blood use by the different wards, including pediatrics, which used the majority (47%) of blood products (Table ).…”

“…Among the 10 studies on general patient populations, transfusions of WB, RBCs, FFP, and PLTs were 31.7% (46,653 of 147,310), 58.5% (86,236 of 147,310), 7.2% (10,662 of 147,310) and 2.6% (3,759 of 147,310), respectively (Table ).…”

“…All the 37 eligible studies reported use of blood and blood products but with slight variations in the scope and quality. Regarding the scope, eight studies reported use of blood products among hospitalized general patient populations, while two studies used national blood transfusion databases . These 10 studies were used for the primary outcome calculation.…”

“…This review analyzes 37 studies that reported on the use of blood products in SSA, from which six studies reporting on a general hospitalized patient population were used to estimate current blood use in the region. The results suggest that pediatric malaria, sickle cell anemia (SCA), obstetric hemorrhage, and other causes of bleeding are the most common indications for which blood is transfused in SSA.…”

Objective: To evaluate the follow-up of pregnancy in patients with caesarean deliveries, the time taken to perform the procedure and the postoperative prognosis.Material and methods: This was a retrospective, descriptive and analytical study conducted over a period of two years at the Maternity Hospital of the health district. Data were collected from clinical records, delivery room and operating theatre registers. The variables studied were the epidemiological characteristics of the patients, the follow-up of the pregnancy, the indications for caesarean section and the maternal and neonatal outcome. The data were entered and analysed using SPHINX software.Results: During this period we performed 274 caesarean sections out of a total number of 7025 deliveries, i.e. a caesarean section rate of 3.9%. The epidemiological profile of the patients was that of a young woman, with an average age of 27.4 years. The majority were married (98.1%). The socio-economic level was low (97.8%) and they were primiparous (33.2%). As regards pregnancy follow-up, 34.3%) had had 3 antenatal consultations and 31.7% had had 4 antenatal consultations. Hypertension was observed in 25.9% of pregnancies. The standard blood test was performed in 25.2% of patients. For obstetrical ultrasound, 52.2% of patients had undergone at least one ultrasound examination. The majority of patients (80%) had their first caesarean section and 14% had their second. These were emergency caesareans in 82.1%. They were mandatory indications in 49%, of prudence in 30% and of necessity in 21%. The extraction time was less than 30 minutes in 41 cases and between 30 and 60 minutes in 132 cases. Post-operative complications were dominated by vasculo-renal syndromes. Perinatal mortality was 28.6‰. The contraceptive rate after caesarean section was 98.1% during this period. Conclusion:The management of deliveries in rural areas is often difficult, prenatal consultations are often of poor quality, the management of caesarean sections performed with rather long delays.

Introduction: Heart failure is a complex syndrome and very frequently observed and secondary to the outcome of many advanced heart diseases. It is made up of a set of symptoms that reflect the tissue and visceral consequences of heart failure. The objective was to determine the hospital prevalence and to describe the management of heart failure in the medical department of Tombouctou hospital in Mali. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection, carried out over 24 months and involving the analysis of 266 records of patients hospitalized for heart failure. Results: The frequency of heart failure was 17.6% with a female predominance. The average age was 48 years with extremes of 16 and 90 years. Cardiovascular risk factors were dominated by high blood pressure with 38%. Global heart failure was the mode of discovery in 72.2% of cases. The etiologies were dominated by hypertensive dilated cardiomyopathy in 36.8% and peripartum cardiomyopathy in 32% of cases. The majority of our patients benefited from diuretic treatment, i.e. 95.9% frequency; with a favorable evolution in 96.2% of cases. We recorded 10 deaths, i.e. a lethality of 3.7%. We report some difficulties encountered during our security study because Tombouctou is a war zone and the lack of a technical platform for biology such as (BNP or NT-proBNP). Conclusion: Heart failure is a real public health problem. Its prevalence is increasing due to the aging of the population and especially the poor management of arterial hypertension in our context.
