Design overview This is a cluster randomised open label trial of 2 different 'point of care' diagnostic tools (Hemocue and Copack) to detect anaemia in children under the age of 5 years, each compared to a control arm that will continue current routine practice (based on clinical judgement or ineffective colorimetric methods of measuring haemoglobin). An inherent constraint in designing this effectiveness trial of is the absence of a measure of haemoglobin in control dispensaries. Thus the proportion of children diagnosed with anaemia is the primary outcome and expected rates will be derived from the rolling cross-sectional survey.
