The last step in the bottleneck, causes & strategies analysis is to estimate the LiSt impact. In this exercise, EQUIST takes the change in effective coverage of each intervention resulting from the scenario you have built, and runs it through LiST to estimate the lives that could have been averted. The results from this analysis …
In this section you will identify the priority bottlenecks to implementing the intervention(s) you have selected in the intervention step above (EQUIST will automatically bring the interventions you selected from the above analysis into the bottleneck analysis step). In the bottleneck analysis, EQUIST will automatically calculate the severity of bottlenecks based on the indicators used to …
Next, you will need to identify the priority interventions with which to address the epidemiological issues you have selected above. EQUIST includes over 60 interventions. The interventions are grouped in nine “packages” further grouped into three service delivery modes: family care practices, preventive services, and curative services. Based on your previously defined epidemiological priorities, EQUIST …
In this step, you will identify the epidemiological priorities for your scenario, taking into consideration your overall objective as well as specific country’s context. You may want to use what you learned in the situation analysis to identify the key epidemiological priorities for your country context. For example, if diarrhea and pneumonia are contributing to …
Identifying Driver of Inequity & Target Population In this step, you will want to identify the main driver of inequality for the analysis from the following: Province/district Areas of residence Wealth quintiles To determine your driver of inequity, refer back to your frontiers analysis. Where differences in survival and stunting most pronounced between different wealth quintiles, …
In the scenario analysis, you have the option to assess to model and compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of alternative strategies (or scenarios) in terms of prioritisation of different target populations, selection of different groups of preventive and curative interventions and identification of different strategies to address bottlenecks for effective coverage of these interventions. It …
