Training for Evidence-Based Health Care Research, Argentina

描述（由申请人提供）：杜兰公共卫生和热带医学学院的循证全球卫生中心（CEBGH）提议与阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯的临床效果和卫生政策研究所（IECS）合作，作为主要的外国合作机构，建立一个孕产妇和儿童健康研究培训项目。题为“阿根廷循证保健研究培训”的培训方案与正在进行的儿童和儿童健康研究全球网络“父母”赠款（U01 HD40477）密切相关，并将以福格蒂国际妇幼保健研究培训方案（D43 TW005492）以往取得的经验为基础。该方案的主要目标是为阿根廷保健专业人员提供循证保健研究方面的培训，这些培训与IECS以及参与GN研究项目的医院和社区网络有关。将特别强调使用随机对照试验来评价妇幼保健干预措施。该项目将通过位于洛杉矶新奥尔良杜兰大学的CEBGH进行管理。杜兰大学CEBGH将提供有指导的研究培训。硕士课程和短期培训将在阿根廷IECS教授。项目完成后，学员将积极参与GN研究活动。因此，它们将提高GN在阿根廷的项目和未来协议的研究质量和可持续性。为了到2015年实现联合国的孕产妇和儿童千年发展目标，阿根廷有10年的时间将产妇死亡率从每10万活产44人降至15人以下，并将五岁以下儿童死亡率从每1 000活产19人降至7人以下。拟议的方案将培训研究人员，他们将通过确定以证据为基础的妇幼保健干预措施，为这一努力作出贡献。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Center for Evidence-Based Global Health (CEBGH) of the Tulane School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine proposes to establish a training program in maternal and child health research, in collaboration with the Institute for Clinical Effectiveness and Health Policy (IECS) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as the Primary Foreign Collaborating Institution. The training program, entitled "Training for Evidence-Based Health Care Research, Argentina," is closely linked to the ongoing NICHD Global Network (GN) for Women's and Children's Health Research "parent" grant (U01 HD40477) and will build upon the previous experiences achieved through the Fogarty International Maternal and Child Health Research Training Program (D43 TW005492). The program's main objective is to provide training in evidence-based health care research for Argentinean health professionals, linked to IECS and the network of hospitals and communities participating in the GN research projects. The use of randomized controlled trials to evaluate maternal and child health interventions will be especially emphasized. The program will be administered through the CEBGH, located at Tulane University in New Orleans, LA. Mentored research trainings will be offered at the Tulane CEBGH. Master's programs and short-term trainings will be taught at IECS in Argentina. Upon completion of the program, trainees will be actively involved in GN research activities. They will therefore enhance the research quality and sustainability of the GN's projects and future protocols in Argentina. To attain the United Nations' maternal and child Millennium Development Goals by 2015, Argentina has 10 years to decrease the maternal mortality ratio from 44 to less than 15 per 100,000 live births and to decrease the under five mortality rate from 19 to less than seven per 1,000 live births. The proposed program will train researchers who will contribute to this effort by identifying evidence-based maternal and child health interventions.
