The #RANI project includes an #mHealth intervention (#mRANI) which aims to increase self-efficacy for iron supplement adherence for #anemia prevention and #bystander intervention. We are working towards #publishing a study protocol for #mRANI, stay tuned for more #updates!
#Cognitivemaps & card sorting found that #fatigue was characterized differently from other medical treatment-related items; additionally, #perceptions around fatigue’s importance to health were low. Women from focus groups reported that fatigue was a part of their #daily life.
The #study results conclude by stating that #fatigue is currently not an adequate cue to seek treatment for anemia; this could possibly be due to the normalization of fatigue as a part of women’s daily life.
Participants of the #perceptualmapping & #cardsorting compared #images of anemia-related items and concepts, while participants in group discussions were asked about their daily life, #aspirations & concerns among women, perceptions of #anemia, & community #iron supplementation.
#theRANIproject members, including #HagereYilma, recently authored a paper that investigated the relationship between fatigue, the main symptom of anemia, and whether it cues women and others to obtain iron-folic acid supplements! Check it out below!
