This poster was presented at the Third Global Symposium on Health Systems Research in Cape Town and discusses the formative research findings of the Pneumonia Diagnostics Project. The project aimed to to identify the most accurate, acceptable, scalable and user-friendly diagnostic tools to measure respiratory rate and oxygen saturation for the diagnosis of pneumonia in children by community health workers and first-level health facility workers in Cambodia, Ethiopia, South Sudan and Uganda.
