The Effects of Hand and Face Washing With Soap on Active Trachoma Among Children 1-9 Years Old.

Active trachoma remains a major public health problem among children in Ethiopia. This clinical trial evaluates whether regular hand and face washing with soap reduces the prevalence of active trachoma among children aged 1-9 years in the Central Ethiopia Region. The primary outcome is the prevalence of active trachoma after the intervention, with findings expected to support evidence-based hygiene interventions for trachoma prevention and control.
