Multan, Pakistan
IMNCI
A Strategy for
Outpatient Case Management
of Children
under five years of age
Step 1
General Danger Signs
Check for General Danger Signs in all Children
General Danger Signs indicate severe disease
Presence of any one of the General Danger Signs
means that the child needs to be
referred / admitted to the emergency
Check for General Danger Signs
• Unable to drink or breastfeed
• Vomiting everything
• Lethargic or unconscious
• Convulsions
• General Danger Signs indicate severity of illness
• Not diagnostic but suggests acuity of situation
Step 2
Assess for
Cough or Difficult Breathing
Ask the mother: Does the Child have Cough
Step 3
Assess for
Diarrhoea
Ask the mother: Does the Child have Diarrhea
Step 4
Assess for
Sore Throat
Ask the mother: Does the Child have Sore Throat
Step 5
Assess for
Ear Problem
Ask the mother: Does the Child have Ear Problem
Step 6
Assess for
Fever
Ask the mother: Does the Child have Fever
Step 7
Assess for
Malnutrition
Assess all children for Malnutrition
What is Malnutrition ?
Nutritional status
Nutritional status is determined by balance of
Nutritional Intake and Nutritional Expenditure
NUTRITIONAL INTAKE NUTRITIONAL EXPENDITURE
NUTRITIONAL STATUS
What is Malnutrition ?
• Malnutrition is a Pathological State resulting from Deficiency of One or More
Essential Nutrients
• Protein – Calorie Malnutrition (PCM / PEM)
• Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM)
• Specific Micronutrient deficiency
- Vit A deficiency immunodeficiency
- Vit D deficiency Rickets
- Iron deficiency anemia
- Iodine deficiency goitre
Clinical Types of Malnutrition
Previous terminology
(clinical picture)
• Marasmus
• Kwashiorkor
• Marasmic Kwashiorkor
New terminology
(Weight, Height, MUAC measurements)
• Low weight
• Stunting
• Wasting
• MAM (moderate acute malnutrition)
• SAM (severe acute malnutrition)
Growth Charts (Weight for Age)
Growth Charts (Weight for Length / Height)
Weight for Height Reference Tables
Normal Anthropometric Measurements
• Weight – more than – 2 z-score
(> 80 % of mean or expected for age)
• Length / Height – more than – 2 z-score
(> 80 % of mean or expected for age)
• Mid arm circumference (MUAC) – 125 mm to 160 mm
(at 6 months to 5 years of age)
Clinical types of Malnutrition
• Underweight child – Weight for Age less than – 2 z-score
(< 80 % of mean or expected for age)
• Wasting – Low Weight for Height (indicates acute malnutrition)
• Stunting – Low Height for Age (indicates chronic malnutrition)
Stunting and Wasting
Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM)
(Presence of any of the following)
• Weight for Height < -2 z-score (< 80 %)
• MUAC < 125 mm
Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM)
(Presence of any of the following)
• Weight for Height < -3 z-score (< 70 %)
• MUAC < 115 mm
• Edema
Severe Acute Malnutrition
• Age = 11 months
• Length = 70 cm
• Weight = 5.5 kg ( - 4 SD)
Epidemiology

RECURRENT INFECTIONS
Patho-physiology of
Malnutrition
Reductive adaptation
•Smaller size
•Thinness
•Smaller organs
•Reduced immunity
Physiological Effects of
Malnutrition
• Cardiovascular - ↓ cardiac output and stroke volume
• GI - ↓ absorption of nutrients
• Renal - ↓ glomerular filtration
• Immune - ↓ immunoglobulins, ↓ cell-mediated immunity
• Liver - ↓ glycogen, Hypoglycemia
• Endocrine - ↓ insulin levels
• Cellular function - ↑ permeability of cell membranes
• Temperature regulation - ↓ BMR, Hypothermia
• Skin, muscles, glands – atrophy, muscle fatigue
Acute Complications
• Acute infections – Diarrhea, pneumonia,
• Hypoglycemia
• Hypothermia
• Dehydration
• Electrolyte deficiency – K+
Chronic Complications
• Chronic infection e.g T.B
• Malabsorption / Chronic diarrhea
• Anemia
• Vitamin Deficiencies
• Growth retardation
• Learning disorders ( low IQ)
Management of Malnutrition
WHO IMNCI Assessment and Management
Assess and Classify Malnutrition
• Edema feet
• Weight for Height / Length (determine z-score as per chart or table)
• MUAC (age > 6 months)
• Medical complications (extensive infections, severe dehydration,
severe anemia, hypothermia / high fever, hypoglycemia, lethargy,
convulsions, severe vomiting
• Anorexia
No Acute Malnutrition
• Wt for Ht > - 2 z-score (> 80 % )
• MUAC > 125 mm
• Compliment the mother
• Give Feeding advice
• Micronutrients if needed
MAM - Moderate Acute Malnutrition
• Wt for Ht between – 3 and – 2 z-score (70 - 80 % )
• MUAC = 115 - 125 mm
• Assess the Child Feeding
• Give Feeding advice
• Micronutrients
SAM - Severe Acute Malnutrition
• Wt for Ht less than – 3 z-score (less than 70 % )
• MUAC = less than 115 mm
• Edema (nutritional cause)
• No Medical Complications
• No Anorexia - Able to feed adequately
• Assess the Child Feeding
• Give Feeding advice
• Micronutrients
• Give Therapeutic Feeds (RUTF)
Severe Acute Malnutrition with complications
• SAM + Medical complications (acute illness / poor appetite /
severe edema)
• Admit / Refer for Inpatient care
• Admit in Stabilization Centre (SC)
• Manage according to Guidelines
• Phase I (Stabilization)
• Phase II (Rehabilitation)
Principles in Management of Malnutrition
• Treat Acute complications - hypothermia, hypoglycemia, dehydration,
diarrhea, infection
• Adequate diet which the child can digest (150 – 200 calories / kg / day)
• Micronutrients ( Vitamin A )
• Growth monitoring (assess weight daily or weekly)
• Follow-up (monthly to prevent relapse)
Time frame for the management of
a child with severe malnutrition
Stabilization Rehabilitation
Days 1-2 Days 3-7 Weeks 2-6
1. Hypoglycaemia
2. Hypothermia
3. Dehydration
4. Electrolytes
5. Infection
6. Micronutrients no iron with iron
7. Initiate feeding
8. Catch up growth
9. Sensory stimulation
10. Prepare for follow-up

• Powdered milk
• Vitamin and mineral mix (special formula)
Recovery from SAM
• WEIGHT GAIN should be 5 – 10 gm / kg / day
• Child is considered to be recovered when
– 1 SD weight for length / height
(90 % of expected weight for length / height)
has been achieved

Prevention of Malnutrition
PREVENTION OF MALNUTRITION
• Nutrition education
• Adequate feeding and diet
• Growth monitoring
• Protection against infections
Adequate feeding and diet
• Breast feeding for 2 Yrs
• Weaning at 4 – 6 months
• Adequate diet for children
• Feeding during illness
Growth Monitoring
• Weigh the baby/ child every month upto five years of age
• Plot the weight on the Growth chart
• Ensure that the weight is increasing normally
Protection against Infections
• Vaccination
• Handwashing
• Use Masks
• Social distancing
• Breastfeeding
• Adequate Nutrition
• Micronutrients
• Safe water
• Clean food
