PATH's
Technologies for Health (HealthTech) Project has the goal to improve child
survival and maternal health through practical, affordable, appropriate
technologies. PATH collaborates with organisations to develop, advance
or adapt technologies that address PHC needs in resource-poor countries.
PATH
has some documents available on laboratory technology, like the "Anemia
Detection in Health Services Guidelines for Program Managers" or
health
technology directions Volume 11, No.1 and Volume 12, No.1. Visit their website or contact PATH directly via mail or
e-mail for more information.
The Rapid Diagnostic Tests web site www.rapid-diagnostics.org
is managed by PATH. The site is useful for public health program
managers and decision makers who seek information on rapid diagnostic tests. The
web site provides in-depth information on rapid diagnostic tests and
tests for specific diseases, i.e. Hepatitis B, HIV, Malaria and
Syphilis.
