“…The following data items were extracted: study details, HRC region, LRC region, the intervention focus (e.g., RA, pain medicine), intervention type (e.g., medical education, research), intervention recipients (e.g., anesthesiologists, residents, fellows), intervention basis, needs assessment method (e.g., standardized tools, informal assessment), evaluation of intervention, it's aspects (e.g., impact, educational) and evaluative research methodology utilized (e.g., qualitative, quantitative). A total of 1314 articles identified by the search, 134 qualified for full text assessment for eligibility, with 44 studies qualifying in the final review [20 ▪▪ ,21,22 ▪ ,23,24 ▪▪ ,25 ▪▪ ,26,27,28 ▪ ,29–63]. There were few studies published in the last 18 months (probably due to COVID travel restrictions) but four studies focused on RA were published recently.…”

Purpose of reviewPerioperative anesthesia-related mortality is significantly higher in low-resource compared to high-resource countries. Regional anesthesia techniques can provide safety, cost, and access benefits when compared to general anesthesia in these settings but is underutilized primarily due to a lack of experienced educators and training opportunities. Academic institutions and international organizations are attempting to fill this educational gap through collaborations, but these efforts need examination for best practices going forward. Recent findingsMost collaborative anesthesia interactions between high and low resource areas have occurred between North America or Europe, and Africa or Asia and a majority have involved an educational intervention. Only 7% of the studies used a recognized framework to evaluate the intervention used in their research, such as the Kirkpatrick, REAIM or CFIR method. All recent studies reviewed reported a positive impact from educational collaborations. Only 7% of interventions have had a primary focus on regional anesthesia and most were reported between 2016 and 2022. SummaryRobust reports on international collaborations providing capacity enhancing educational interventions in regional anesthesia have increased in recent years but are still rare and should be encouraged going forward. Short courses supported by high-resource countries can be effective in low-resource areas when partnerships produce curricula that are well designed.

Introduction: The need to address the problem of patient safety has been a focus of World Health Assembly (WHA) meetings of 2002, 2019 and 2021. The 2019 WHA Resolution urged the Member States to take action on patient safety. We aimed to review patient safety efforts in Tanzania from 2002 to 2022 to inform improvement efforts towards the 2030 target. Methods: A rapid literature review was conducted between January 2002 and April 2022.We searched Google, PubMed and PubMed Central in April and May 2022 using the following search terms: PubMed-"patient safety Tanzania", "blood safety in Tanzania", "safe surgery Tanzania", and "healthcare-associated infections Tanzania"; Google-"blood safety in Tanzania", injection safety in Tanzania", "infection prevention and control", "radiation safety in health facilities in Tanzania"; and PubMed Central-"injection safety in Tanzania. Results: The search identified 4160 articles, of which 4053 were removed in initial screening; 21 were duplicates, giving 86 relevant articles for full screening. Of the 86 articles, 04 were removed after the full screening, hence remaining with 82 articles. Among the 82 eligible articles, 27 are on IPC, 26 on safe surgery, 12 on blood safety, 07 on radiation safety, 06 on injection safety, and 02 on medication safety. One article was relevant to-blood safety, IPC and injection safety; and one article was relevant to-IPC and injection
