While copious gains have been reported under DHFF, there are also notable failures to improve health service provision. This study aims to explore the experience of implementing the DHFF program in the rural areas of the Kigoma District Council. An exploratory qualitative study was conducted in Primary Health Care (PHC) facilities of the Kigoma District Council. A purposive sampling technique was used to draw 21 Key Informants including leaders of health facilities and members of the Health Facility Governing Committees (HFGC). Key Informant Interviews (KII) were used to solicit information from the study participants. Content analysis technique was used to analyze data collected from study participants. Our findings present enablers and barriers in the implementation of DHFF. Successful implementation of DHFF was enabled by the availability of formal training and supportive supervision, adherence to DHFF guidelines, availability of planning guidelines at the health facility, functionality of the HFGC, and adherence to the procurement process. A low sense of ownership of the program, delays and insufficient fund disbursement, shortage of health workers, and inadequate knowledge of DHFF program implementation emerged as the barriers that impeded successful program implementation. Evaluating the implementation experience of the DHFF program requires policymakers at the national level to devise a mechanism for the timely disbursement of funds, reinforcing capacity building to increase the autonomy of health facilities in their daily operations. Furthermore, structural and operational barriers warrant further operational and implementation research.","PeriodicalId":131455,"journal":{"name":"The Pan African Medical Journal","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135444870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its annual incidence globally is between 0.5 to 1 case per one million individuals. It has a 0.03% prevalence rate in the general population. It commonly occurs in the left atrium, but can also be located in the other heart chambers. Its clinical presentations are variable, non-specific, and can mimic various cardiovascular and systemic diseases, posing a diagnostic dilemma. Thus, a high index of suspicion with appropriate use of radiologic and laboratory diagnostic tools is essential for its accurate diagnosis and management. The diagnosis and management of a rare case of left atrial myxoma in a middle-aged African woman who presented with heart failure-like symptoms, features of acute pulmonary edema, and syncope is presented in this literature. The diagnosis was suspected following echocardiography. The tumor was surgically excised, and the diagnosis was confirmed histopathologically.

We present the case of a 36-year-old female who was admitted due to acute respiratory distress. A cardiac ultrasound revealed a severe pericardial effusion with tamponade signs. Subsequently, percutaneous pericardiocentesis was performed, resulting in a swift clinical improvement. Laboratory examinations confirmed severe hypothyroidism associated with Hashimoto's disease. Despite undergoing hormone replacement therapy, histological analysis of the pericardium revealed a chronic inflammation process. A follow-up cardiac ultrasound conducted six months later indicated the presence of a well-tolerated chronic pericardial effusion. In conclusion, clinicians should consider hypothyroidism as a potential cause when cardiac tamponade is observed, particularly in the absence of tachycardia. The prognosis is generally favorable with hormone replacement therapy, but regular ultrasound monitoring should be maintained until the patient achieves a euthyroid state.","PeriodicalId":131455,"journal":{"name":"The Pan African Medical Journal","volume":"126 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135009403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
