Download or read book Disease Control Priorities Third Edition Volume 2 written by Robert Black and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.

Book excerpt: A collection of eight teaching units conveying essential information about the pathophysiology clinical features diagnosis epidemiology treatment and prevention of diarrhoea in children. Addressed to medical students undergoing clinical training in paediatrics the manual aims to equip students with all the knowledge needed to assess patients plan treatment and prevent deaths through proper case management. Information which is specific to conditions in developing countries ranges from an explanation of the clinical features seen in different forms of dehydration through advice on how to communicate with mothers to a discussion of the role of feeding in the management of diarrhoea. Recommended lines of action draw their authority from published research and extensive WHO experience in programmes for the treatment and prevention of diarrhoea. The first two teaching units provide fundamental information about the epidemiology clinical types of diarrhoea causative agents modes of transmission pathophysiology and implications for treatment. Subsequent units explain how the clinical assessment of patients should be performed and interpreted discuss ways of teaching mothers to treat diarrhoea at home describe clinical measures for the treatment of dehydrated patients and discuss the special procedures to be followed during the treatment of dysentery persistent diarrhoea and diarrhoea associated with other illnesses. The remaining units cover the nutritional management of diarrhoea in children including those suffering from severe malnutrition and explain how physicians can promote prevention particularly through the education of mothers and other family members. Each unit concludes with a list of exercises. Further practical information is presented in a series of annexes which include illustrated step-by-step instructions for intravenous rehydration and nasogastric rehydration.
