Gujarat, in particular, has developed its own operational response plan and implemented several strategic measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 and secure the welfare of its people. Acknowledging the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to continue in the near future, it becomes imperative to review the ongoing responses of the state administration. The objective and motivation behind this is to qualitatively review the public health management actions already undertaken, to identify the current best practices, the achievements and the challenges faced. This process of response review is knowledge enriching in itself and may help all interested stakeholders in improved handling of public health emergencies that enables long-term health security. This review used a new WHO tool developed for country intra-action reviews (IAR). The review report highlights important success factors and provides recommendations across ten important areas. The review also documents the challenges that the stakeholders faced while dealing with the outbreak and recommends critical improvements required to ramp up the health response.

  • Maternal Health 8

    Maternal Health 8

    MATERNAL HEALTH 8 Maternal and child health has remained an integral part of the Family Welfare Programme of India since the time of the First and Second Five-Year Plans (1951-56 and 1956- 61) when the Government of India took steps to strengthen maternal and child health services. As part of the Minimum Needs Programme initiated during the Fifth Five-Year Plan (1974-79), maternal health, child health, and nutrition services were integrated with family planning services. In 1992-93, the Child Survival and Safe Motherhood Programme continued the process of integration by bringing together several key child survival interventions with safe motherhood and family planning activities (Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, 1992). In 1996, safe motherhood and child health services were incorporated into the Reproductive and Child Health Programme (RCH). The National Population Policy adopted by the Government of India in 2000 reiterates the government’s commitment to safe motherhood programmes within the wider context of reproductive health (Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, 2000). Several of the national sociodemographic goals for 2010 specified by the policy pertain to safe motherhood. For 2010, the goals are that 80 percent of all deliveries should take place in institutions, 100 percent of deliveries should be attended by trained personnel, and the maternal mortality ratio should be reduced to a level below 100 per 100,000 live births. To improve the availability of and access to quality health care, especially for those residing in rural areas, the poor, women, and children, the government recently launched the National Rural Health Mission for the 2005-2012 period.

  • Impact of an Integrated Nutrition and Health Programme on Neonatal

    Impact of an Integrated Nutrition and Health Programme on Neonatal

    Impact of an integrated nutrition and health programme on neonatal mortality in rural northern India Abdullah H Baqui,a Emma K Williams,a Amanda M Rosecrans,a Praween K Agrawal,a Saifuddin Ahmed,b Gary L Darmstadt,a Vishwajeet Kumar,a Usha Kiran,c Dharmendra Panwar,c Ramesh C Ahuja,d Vinod K Srivastava,d Robert E Black a & Manthuram Santosham a Objective To assess the impact of the newborn health component of a large-scale community-based integrated nutrition and health programme. Methods Using a quasi-experimental design, we evaluated a programme facilitated by a nongovernmental organization that was implemented by the Indian government within existing infrastructure in two rural districts of Uttar Pradesh, northern India. Mothers who had given birth in the 2 years preceding the surveys were interviewed during the baseline (n = 14 952) and endline (n = 13 826) surveys. The primary outcome measure was reduction of neonatal mortality. Findings In the intervention district, the frequency of home visits by community-based workers increased during both antenatal (from 16% to 56%) and postnatal (from 3% to 39%) periods, as did frequency of maternal and newborn care practices. In the comparison district, no improvement in home visits was observed and the only notable behaviour change was that women had saved money for emergency medical treatment. Neonatal mortality rates remained unchanged in both districts when only an antenatal visit was received. However, neonates who received a postnatal home visit within 28 days of birth had 34% lower neonatal mortality (35.7 deaths per 1000 live births, 95% confidence interval, CI: 29.2–42.1) than those who received no postnatal visit (53.8 deaths per 1000 live births, 95% CI: 48.9–58.8), after adjusting for sociodemographic variables.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The situation of the hereditary hemoglobinopathies including sickle cell disease (SCD) is very grim in India as well as in Central Gujarat. So to study the regional diversity in hemoglobin variants prompted us to look at the clinical profile of patients presenting with this condition. METHODS: This was a cross sectional study involving a total of 41 patients with sickle cell diseases over a period of two years attending tertiary care government hospital in Vadodara, Central Gujarat. The data was entered in Microsoft excel sheet and analysis was done using Epi Info software. RESULTS & CONCLUSION: Among the 41 study participants having SCD, we found that 23 were males and 18 were females. The mean age of patients was 22.4 years. The common presenting symptoms include arthralgia, bodypain, abdominal pain, breathlessness, fatigue and edema. The mean BMI of the patients of SCD was 20.36 kg/m2 and their average duration of hospital stay was 6.3 days. Almost all (40) patients were discharged and one patient died due to severe complications of vasoocclusive crisis.
