Part 1: Rapid Respiratory Recognition and Response: Building Capacity for Primary Healthcare Providers (4R Project)

This project will trial the integration of High-Velocity Therapy (HVT) in eight primary healthcare facilities to evaluate its feasibility, safety, and effectiveness in managing pediatric respiratory distress. The study includes a novel teleconsultation feature where primary healthcare providers can receive real-time guidance from pediatric specialists during HVT administration, enhancing decision-making and adherence to clinical protocols. Key Objectives

• Evaluate Patient Outcomes: Use objective measures like respiratory rate (RR) and SF ratio (SpO₂/FiO₂) scores to monitor the effectiveness of HVT in stabilizing children with respiratory distress.


• Enhance Provider Support: Implement teleconsultation for on-demand specialist input to guide frontline providers in using HVT effectively.


• Optimize Protocols: Assess adherence to standardized protocols and identify areas for improvement to ensure safe and effective implementation in primary healthcare.


• Reduce Mortality and Deterioration: Analyze the impact of HVT on patient stabilization and outcomes before referral to hospitals.

Key session outcomes:

1. Identify the role of High Velocity Therapy (HVT) in managing pediatric respiratory distress in primary healthcare settings, including its clinical benefits and indications.
2. Discuss practical steps to adopt HVT and teleconsultation in their healthcare environments to address similar challenges.
3. Evaluate the impact of teleconsultation on enhancing provider confidence and protocol adherence, and its role in improving patient stabilization outcomes.Apply evidence-based strategies to integrate innovative therapies like HVT into resource-limited settings, ensuring safety, feasibility, and sustainability.
