There were 543 children admitted representing 21% of all pae- diatric admissions. Median age was 36 months. Treatment at home was the first action taken by 57.5% of families. Case fatality rate was 5/1000 and 93% of the children who died were under 9 years. Highest risk of death was associated with delay in seeking treatment and severity of illness before admission. Omdurman Hospital in Khartoum had the best case-management performance index compared to the other hospitals. Caractéristiques cliniques et épidémiologiques du paludisme grave chez des enfants dans 4 hôpitaux au Soudan RÉSUMÉ Nous avons évalué les caractéristiques cliniques et épidémiologiques des cas de paludisme grave avant l’admission à l’hôpital, la prise en charge hospitalière et les résultats ainsi que les facteurs associés dans 4 hôpitaux de différentes zones du Soudan sur une période de 5 mois en 2000. Il y avait 543 enfants hospitalisés représentant 21 % de toutes les hospitalisations pédiatriques. L’âge médian était de 36 mois. Le traitement à domicile était la première mesure prise par 57,5 % des familles. Le taux de létalité s’élevait à 5 pour 1000 et 93 % des enfants qui sont décédés avaient moins de 9 ans. Le risque de mortalité le plus élevé était associé au retard dans le recours aux soins et à la gravité de la maladie avant l’admission à l’hôpital. L’hôpital Omdurman de Khartoum avait le meilleur index de performance pour la prise en charge des cas par rapport aux autres hôpitaux. 1Department of Community Medicine, University of Khartoum, Khartoum, Sudan (Correspondence to Z.

When conflict erupted in South Sudan in mid-December 2013, over 2.2 million South Sudanese citizens fled their homes and took refuge in neighbouring countries. The Government of Sudan has maintained an open border policy, allowing safe and unrestricted access for those fleeing conflict and conflict-related food insecurity and granting them refugee status. As of 30 September, Sudan hosts the largest number of South Sudanese refugees in the region with an estimated 859,000 refugees, with approximately 467,000 living in Sudan prior to the conflict in South Sudan.

This is mainly attributed to low access to and coverage of safe drinking water, and sanitation, environmental sanitation and low vaccination coverage; exacerbated by weak health and WASH infrastructures. The country experienced the worst flooding since 2015 creating favourable ground for emergence and aggravation of water-borne and vector-borne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, dengue fever, malaria, etc.

  • Cholera Outbreak
    ACAPS Briefing Note: Sudan Cholera Outbreak Briefing Note – 16 June 2017 Anticipated Without immediate intervention in WASH and health sectors, scope and infection is likely to spread further. While previously concentrated SUDAN scale in less densely populated states, it has now spread to the capital, Khartoum, a much more densely populated area. The onset of the Cholera outbreak rainy season this month is also likely to act as an aggravating factor. The areas most at risk are White Nile and Khartoum, while the population group most at risk are vulnerable South Sudanese Need for international Not required Low Moderate Significant Major refugees. There is also a risk that it will spread to Darfur in the assistance X rainy season, where poor infrastructure, vulnerable IDP Very low Low Moderate Significant Major populations, and ongoing conflict would heighten the Expected impact X humanitarian impact of the outbreak. Key priorities WASH: Lack of clean drinking water and poor sanitation facilities create favourable conditions for the spread of infection. Crisis overview Health: Lack of medicines, and overcrowded and understaffed health facilities are a major problem. A cholera outbreak that started in Blue Nile state in August 2016 began to spread rapidly as of April this year. Conservative estimates suggest a minimum of between 15,000- 23,000 people infected, with 280-820 deaths. It is currently affecting Gedarif, White Nile, Humanitarian Humanitarians are denied access to populations in SPLM-N Khartoum, Sennar, River Nile, North Kordofan, and Gezira states. White Nile is host to a constraints controlled areas of Sudan. Information on the health status of large South Sudanese refugee population and has had the highest number of cases so populations in these areas is largely unavailable.

  • Chapter 3: an Eco-Systemic Construct of Northern Riverain Sudan
    University of Pretoria etd – Osman, A O S (2004) CHAPTER 3: AN ECO-SYSTEMIC CONSTRUCT OF NORTHERN RIVERAIN SUDAN 3.1 SUB PROBLEM 2 The study context needs to be identified eco-systemically. This needs to be initiated by the articulation of social, political, cultural and religious descriptions and the identification of the recurring themes in the literature of the region. 3.2 HYPOTHESIS 2 It is believed that through the eco-systemically based identification of recurring themes in the literature of/on the region, essential and incidental attributes of the place and culture can be articulated. This can become a tool in interpretation of tangible/ intangible artefacts, spatial interventions, and social practice. 3.3 OUTLINE OF CHAPTER 3 This chapter is initiated by looking at the history of the region. The reasons behind the delimitation of the area of study are articulated and justified. The recurring themes are then expressed through an intensive literature review. The origins of the people are explained and elaborated. The identity of the northern riverain people is established as a political and a religious concept. The northern Sudanese riverain people are thus introduced. 3.4 THE CONTEXT: ITS HISTORY AND ITS VALIDITY AS AN AREA OF STUDY Three main civilizations lived on this land, extending along the Sudanese Nile valley from the present northern border with Egypt to the town of Sennar on the Blue Nile and Kosti on the White Nile: the Kushites, the Meroites and the Funj (refer to Table 3.1). The Kushites had their centres at Kerma and then at Napata.

NINAN I Al Gezira Al Jazirah (Madani), also spell “Gezira”, is one of the 18 states of Sudan. The state lies between the Blue Nile and the White Nile in the east-central region of the country. It has an area of 27,549 sq.km . The name comes from the Arabic word for island. Wad Madani is the capital of the state. Al Jazirah ( Gezira) is a well populated area suitable for agriculture. The area was at the southern end of Nubia and little is known about its ancient history and only limited archaeological work has been conducted in this area. It was part of the kingdom of Alodia for several centuries and with that state's collapse in the early sixteenth century became the center of the Funj Kingdom of Sennar. Alodia or Alwa was the southernmost of the three kingdoms of Christian Nubia; the other two were Nobatia and Makuria to the north. Much about this kingdom is still unknown, despite its thousand-year existence and considerable power and geographic size. Due to fewer excavations far less is known about Alodia than its northern counterparts. Most of what is known about Christian Nubia comes from either contemporary Egyptian sources and the intensive archaeological work done in Lower Nubia prior to the flooding of many sites by the Aswan High Dam.

Jacob’s, and Theis’s recovery methods were used to calculate the aquifer hydraulic properties. The chemical analyses of major constituents with aid of surfer software and Piper’s diagram were used in evaluation of groundwater chemistry and construction of hydrochemical maps. The transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity of Gezira and Cretaceous sedimentary aquifers were calculated. Based on field and laboratory observations it was found that the groundwater in lower Gezira and Cretaceous sedimentary aquifers is suitable for domestic use whereas that of upper Gezira aquifer is extremely saline and considered to have been polluted by local lithological units.

    SUDAN Situation Report Last updated: 20 Aug 2020 HIGHLIGHTS (20 Aug 2020) Humanitarian needs are rapidly increasing in Sudan, as the country faces multiple shocks, including the economic crisis, ongoing floods, violence and disease outbreaks. The Government declared an outbreak of vaccine-derived poliovirus on 9 August. Over 5.2 million children under age 5 live in the nine affected states and will require vaccination. COVID-19 transmissions also continue and over 12,500 people have contracted the virus as of 17 August 2020.
