This presentation by JSI's Nosa Orobaton, "March of Care for Newborn Umbilical Cord in Nigeria" was part of a dynamic panel moderated by JSI's Dr. Penny Dawson on February 13, 2015 at the 14th World Congress on Public Health in Kolkata, India. Four speakers summarized evidence for interventions proven to reduce newborn mortality (e.g., chlorhexidine) and shared important policy and programmatic experiences in prevention and treatment of neonatal infections. JSI's Leela Khanal and Dr. Nosa Orobaton spoke about experiences from Nepal and Nigeria in scaling up chlorhexidine use in those countries. Another speaker shared results from the COMBINE trial in Ethiopia, implemented primarily by JSI with support from SAVE/SNL, which evaluated the impact on neonatal mortality of health extension worker-led management of bacterial infections.
