Although POCUS has already been shown to improve care in LMICs, the overall quality of evidence remains low. This is largely explained by the absence of needs assessment prior to POCUS implementation and by the challenges that arise when measuring significant outcomes in small, non-academic centers in LMICs.</p> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 19:29:03 +0000 Catherine Auger-Morin, Jonathan Houle, Louise Pilote 2746 at /globalhealth /globalhealth/article/global-health-night-2021-global-health-equity-non-communicable-diseases/how-policy-incoherence-problematised-global-level-and-what-are-implications-ncd-prevention <h2>Abstract</h2> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 21:23:18 +0000 Alua Kulenova, Anne Marie Thow, Raphael Lencucha 2755 at /globalhealth
