Effects of Multiple Interventions on Under-Five Diarrhea

Effects of Maternal Handwashing Education and Household Water Chlorination on Diarrheal Disease Among Under-Five Children in Central Ethiopia Using RCT

Diarrhea is the leading cause of death, especially in developed nations. Though there are effective interventions, diarrhea remains the leading cause of death among children in Ethiopia

Diarrheal disease is the major cause of child morbidity and mortality in low-income countries, including Ethiopia. Diarrhea is more common in areas with a lack of water sanitation and hygiene. Even though there are available effective interventions, diarrhea remains the major cause of child morbidity and mortality in Ethiopia. Therefore, the aim of this study is to give up-to-date information on multiple interventions that reduce diarrheal disease.
