The overall aim of ComPAS stage 1 was to design a simplified, MUAC-based dosage protocol and statistically assess its theoretical performance providing adequate energy to children recovering from acute malnutrition. During stage 1, the study undertook foundational research, compiling and analysing data obtained from programmes run by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF-France) in South Sudan during 2010, Action Against Hunger (AAH-USA) in Pakistan during 2012, and International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Chad (2013 & 2014), Kenya (2012, 2013, & 2014), and Yemen (2014). This protocol was later tested in a cluster-randomized controlled trial in Kenya and South Sudan (ComPAS stage 2). This dataset contains information compiled from the various sources during stage 1. Variables include: patient weight and height, presence of oedema, Mid-upper arm circumference, age, country, an indication of whether they are on outpatient therapeutic or supplementary feeding program. We assessed rate of weight and MUAC gain and estimate energy requirements according to MUAC category (MUAC <115mm and MUAC 115mm-<125mm).
Additional Information
The dataset is managed by the study team and is not held in this digital repository. This record is provided as a point of contact for correspondence and to record the dataset existence. Requests for access to the data can be made through this site. The full dataset cannot be made open access due to the presence of information that may potentially result in participant identification. However, a redacted version will be provided to interested parties, subject to completion of a request form, review by the study team (representatives of International Rescue Committee, Action Against Hunger-USA and Medecins Sans Frontieres-France) and signing of a Data Transfer Agreement.
