The findings from the recent randomized controlled trial of The Cholera Hospital Based Intervention for 7 Days (CHoBI7) demonstrated that this intervention was effective in significantly reducing symptomatic cholera infections in intervention households, and had significant sustained impacts on hand washing with soap behaviors and improved water quality 12 months post intervention. Next steps to transition to scale were: (1) Develop and evaluate scalable approaches to integrate the CHoBI7 intervention into the services provided for hospitalized diarrhea patients at health facilities in Bangladesh; and (2) Evaluate the ability of the CHoBI7 intervention to lead to a sustained uptake of the promoted hand washing with soap and water treatment behaviors and significant reductions in diarrheal disease over time.
