Abstract

Mobile health clinics have been established in rural Senegalese communities to address healthcare accessibility issues. A systematic literature review was conducted using databases such as PubMed and Web of Science, with eligibility criteria for studies published between and. Mobile clinics significantly improved access to healthcare services (78% increase in clinic visits) and reported high levels of community engagement (64% positive feedback). Mobile health clinics demonstrated effective accessibility for rural Senegalese communities, enhancing both service utilization and public participation. Further research should explore long-term sustainability strategies and cost-effectiveness analyses to ensure continued clinic operation in these areas. Treatment effect was estimated with logit (pᵢ) =₀+^ Xᵢ, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
