Ubwo bazaba barangije kugikora, biteganyijwe ko kizageragerezwa mu Rwanda, nk'igihugu kimaze guteza imbere gahunda z'ikingira ku ndwara nyinshi.
Ni igikorwa cyatewe inkunga n'Inama y'Ubushakashatsi ku buvuzi, izwi nka 'Medical Research Council' yatanze arenga miliyoni 1,1 z'Amapawundi y'u Bwongereza (arenga miliyari 1,8 Frw) kugira ngo bikorwe.
Iki gikoresho nticyinjizwa mu mubiri kuko gipima amacandwe. Gishobora kwerekana niba umuntu afite ubwirinzi bw'indwara ya Tétanos kikanareba niba yarahawe izindi nkingo z'indwara zitandukanye mu minota itarenze 15.
Ni igikoresho byitezwe ko kizafasha kubona inkingo no kongerera ubudahangarwa abo muri ibyo bice cyane cyane bidafite ubushobozi bwo gukusanya amakuru ajyanye n'uburyo indwara zikwirakwira hifashishijwe ubushakashatsi.
Mu gihe iki gikoresho kizaba kirangiye gukorwa n'abo bashakashatsi, biteganyijwe ko kizapimirwa mu Rwanda, harebwa niba gikora mu buzima bwa nyabwo, hanarebwa kandi uko abaturage bazacyakira.
Bizakorwa ku bufatanye n'Ikigo cy'Igihugu gishinzwe Ubuzima, RBC n'Ikigo Nyafurika cy'Icyitegererezo mu bijyanye no gukonjesha imiti, inkingo n'ibiribwa (Africa Center of Exellence for Sustainable Cooling and Cold Chain/ACES).
Ni igikorwa Kaminuza ya Birmingham kandi izafatanya n'Ikigo cyita ku bushakashatsi ku buzima bw'umuryango (Center for Family Health Research)
Iki gikoresho nikimara kugeragerezwa mu Rwanda, kizahita kijyanwa mu bindi bihugu bikiri mu nzira y'amajyambere, kijye cyifashishwa mu gupima ubudahangarwa abaturage bafite ku ndwara runaka bitume binakora igenamigambi rya nyaryo ku bijyanye n'ikingira.
Umuyobozi ushinzwe ibijyanye no gutanga serivisi z'ubuvuzi muri Kaminuza ya Birmingham, Dr Christopher Green yavuze ko 'amakuru azavanwamo azatuma umuntu ku giti cye afata icyemezo cy'ibikwiriye gukorwa ndetse binatange andi ajyanye n'abaturage bakingiwe izo ndwara, n'ifatwa ry'ibyemezo bitandukanye bijyanye no kurwanya indwara.'
Tétanos ni indwara ikomeye, kuko buri mwana ihitana abarenga ibihumbi 293 mu Isi. Ifata urwugano rw'ubwonko, igaterwa na bacterie izwi nka 'clostridium tetani'.
Imibare igaragaza ko iyi ndwara yihariye 7% by'imfu z'abana bakivuga mu Isi, igafata abana bamaze nk'iminsi 10 bavutse, bigatangirira ku kwandurira mu mukondo w'umwana.
Dr Jennifer Heaney uri kugira uruhare muri ubu bushakashatsi bwo gukora iki gikoresho, agaragaza ko inkingo za Tétanos ziba zifatanye n'izindi zirinda izindi ndwara.
Agaragaza ko kuba umuntu yaracikanywe n'urukingo rwaTétanos bivuze ko hari n'izindi nkingo atahawe kandi zigira uruhare mu kumurinda indwara zikomeye.
