Improving possible serious bacterial infection (PSBI) management in young infants when referral is not feasible: lessons from embedded implementation research in Ethiopia and Kenya
Pragmatic embedded implementation research effectively supports the identification of barriers and mapping to strategies designed to increase effective coverage of PSBI management when referral is not feasible during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite differences in context, cross-cutting strategies identified could inform broader scale-up in the region, including during future health system shocks.
