Evaluation of an Electronic Entomological Surveillance Planning Tool: a mixed method, before and after study in Maputo, Mozambique
Objectives
To promote adoption of an Entomological Surveillance Planning Tool (ESPT) designed by the University of California San Francisco (UCSF), an interactive digital toolkit (eSPT) was developed by a team of researchers and software developers.
This evaluation seeks to understand the eSPT’s impact on knowledge acquisition and explore technology acceptability among target users from Maputo (Mozambique), informing future adoption of interactive digital planning tools in vector control.
National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) Mozambique, Mozambique
A mixed-methods design was employed, combining pre- and post-intervention surveys with qualitative measures to assess the impact of the eSPT on knowledge, self-efficacy and work practices related to entomological surveillance planning. Qualitative methods were used to explore the acceptability and utility of the eSPT.
