Diarrhoea, acute respiratory infections (ARIs), and malnutrition are leading causes of under-5 mortality. Diarrhoea is assessed based on dehydration level and treated according to WHO plans A, B or C. Persistent diarrhoea or dysentery may require antibiotics. ARIs are classified by fast breathing, chest indrawing, or stridor and treated with antibiotics. Malnutrition is assessed by weight-for-age and may indicate feeding problems requiring counselling or severe malnutrition requiring urgent care. Infections and malnutrition frequently interact, requiring treatment of both.
DIARRHOEA IS LEADING CAUSE OF MORTALITY IN INDIA AS WELL AS GLOBALLY .THIS IS NICE PPT BASED ON WHO GUIDELINES,DIARRHOEA IS EASY TO TREAT BUT STILL IT IS IS 2ND MOST COMMON CAUSE OF CHILDHOOD MORTALITY AFTER PNEUMONIA
Diarrhoea is passage of three or more loose stools or watery stools in a 24-hour period.
The main cause of death from acute diarrhoea is dehydration, which results from the loss of fluid and electrolytes in diarrhoeal stools.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

4. DIARRHOEA
Clinical Assessment
• All children with diarrhoea should be assessed to
determine
– The duration of diarrhoea,
– If blood is present in the stool and
– If dehydration is present.
• A number of clinical signs are used to determine the level
of dehydration
– Infant’s general condition
– Sunken eyes
– Elasticity of skin
5. DIARRHOEA
FLUID DEFICIT CLINICAL SIGNS TREATMENT

• Skin pinch goes back
immediately.
6. DIARRHOEA
WHO Treatment Plan C
• Severe dehydration require immediate IV
infusion, nasogastric or oral fluid replacement according
to WHO treatment guidelines
• Give 100 ml/kg IV fluids.
Age 30 ml/kg 70 ml/kg
Infant 100 ml/kg In 6 hrs First hour Next 5 hrs
Older
100 ml/kg In 3 hrs First 30 mins Next 2.5 hrs
children
7. DIARRHOEA
• Ringer's lactate solution is the preferred commercially
available solution.
• If IV infusion is not possible, urgent referral to the
hospital for IV treatment is recommended.
• When referral takes more than 30 minutes, fluids should
be given by nasogastric tube.
• If none of these are possible and the child can drink, ORS
must be given by mouth.
8. DIARRHOEA
WHO Treatment Plan B
• Some dehydration
• The approximate amount of ORS required is 75 ml/kg;
during first four hours, the mother slowly gives the
recommended amount of ORS by spoonfuls or sips.
• After four hours, the child is reassessed and reclassified
for dehydration, and feeding should begin
• If dehydration persists- the same amount of ORS may be
repeated for another 4 hours.
If the child is breastfed, breast-feeding should continue
9. DIARRHOEA
WHO Treatment Plan A
• Plan A focuses on the three rules of home treatment:
– Give extra fluids,
– Continue feeding, and
– Advise the caretaker when to return to the health
facility
if the child develops blood in the stool, drinks
poorly, becomes sicker, or is not better in 48 hours
10. DIARRHOEA
PERSISTENT DIARRHOEA
(diarrhoea that lasts more than 14 days)
• Encourage the mother to continue breastfeeding.
• At least half of the child's energy intake should come
from foods other than milk or milk products.
• Food needs to be given in frequent, small meals, at least
six times a day.
• All children with persistent diarrhoea should receive
supplementary multivitamins and minerals
(copper, iron, magnesium, zinc) each day for two weeks.
11. DIARRHOEA
DYSENTERY
(bloody diarrhoea)
• The four key elements of dysentery treatment are:
– Antibiotics
– Fluids
– Feeding
– Follow-up
12. DIARRHOEA
• Selection of an antibiotic is based on sensitivity patterns
of strains of Shigella isolated in the area (nalidixic acid is
the drug of choice in many areas).
• Recommended duration of treatment is five days. If after
two days (during follow-up) there is no
improvement, the antibiotic should be stopped and a
different one used.
Indication of Antibiotics in Diarrhoea
• Malnourished or premature infant
• Blood in stool
• Associated non-GI infection e.g. pneumonia
14. DIARRHOEA
RICE BASED ORS
• Tastes better and provides more calories than the glucose-
based ORS
• Culturally acceptable,
• Reduces stool volume (by about 40 %)
• Shortens the duration of diarrhea in both cholera and other
severe diarrheal diseases.
• Starches other than rice, including wheat flour and
maize, have also been shown to reduce stool volume in
patients with cholera.
• Reduce diarrhea by adding more substrate to the gut lumen
without increasing osmolality, thus providing additional
glucose molecules for glucose-mediated absorption.
15. DIARRHOEA
ZINC THERAPY
• 10 mg/day orally for 14 days in
children <6 months of age
• 20 mg/day orally for 14 days in
children ≥6 months of age
• It is used as adjunct therapy (in all
cases of diarrhoea) that decreases
the duration and severity of the
episode and the likelihood of
subsequent infections on the 2-3
months following treatment.

18. ARIs
• Respiratory infections can occur in any part of the
respiratory tract such as the
nose, throat, larynx, trachea, air passages or lungs.
• A child with cough or difficult breathing may have
pneumonia or another severe respiratory infection.
• Both bacteria and viruses can cause pneumonia.
• In developing countries, pneumonia is often due to
bacteria. The most common are
Streptococcus pneumoniae and Hemophilus influenzae
Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs
19. ARIs
• Children with bacterial pneumonia may die from
hypoxia (too little oxygen) or sepsis (generalized
infection).
• you can identify almost all cases of pneumonia by
checking for these two clinical signs:
– fast breathing and
– chest indrawing
Chest indrawing is a sign of severe pneumonia
20. ARIs
• Clinical Assessment
• Three key clinical signs are used to assess a sick child
with cough or difficult breathing:
– Respiratory rate
– Lower chest wall indrawing
– Stridor
Respiratory rate, distinguishes children who have
pneumonia from those who do not
21. ARIs
• Lower chest wall indrawing, which indicates severe
pneumonia (it is defined as the inward movement of the
bony structure of the chest wall with inspiration)
• Chest indrawing should only be considered present if it is
consistently present in a calm child
22. ARIs
• Stridor , which indicates those with severe pneumonia
who require hospital admission. (Stridor is a harsh noise
made when the child breathes in ).
• A child who has stridor when calm has a dangerous
condition.
23. ARIs
• Child’s Age Cut-off Rate for Fast Breathing
Cut Off BR
Age Of The Child (Breaths Per Minute
Or More)
0 To 2 Months 60
2 Months To 12 Months 50
12 Months To 5 Years 40
24. ARIs
SEVERE PNEUMONIA
– Chest indrawing or
– Stridor in calm child
• Give first dose of IV or intramuscular chloramphenicol (40
mg/kg).
• Options for an intramuscular antibiotic for pre-referral
use include ampicillin plus gentamicin combination, OR
ceftriaxone.
25. ARIs
PNEUMONIA
– Fast breathing
• Give appropriate antibiotic for five days. The treatment
of non-severe pneumonia can utilise a five-day course of
either oral cotrimoxazole or amoxicillin.
• These two oral antibiotics are usually effective treatment
for Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus
influenzae.
26. ARIs
• The advantages of cotrimoxazole are that it is used twice
a day, is affordable and compliance is good.
• Amoxicillin is almost twice as expensive as cotrimoxazole
and standard dosages are usually given three times a
day.
• Soothe the throat and relieve the cough with a safe
remedy.
27. ARIs
NO PNEUMONIA
– Cough or cold
– No signs of pneumonia
• Soothe the throat and relieve the cough with a safe
remedy.
30. MALNUTRITION
All sick young infants seen in outpatient health facilities
should be assessed for weight and adequate feeding, as
well as for breast-feeding technique
Breastfeeding: Signs of Good
Attachment
– Chin touching breast;
– Mouth wide open;
– Lower lip turned outward; and
– More areola visible above than
below the mouth.
31. MALNUTRITION
• Determine weight for age. Weight for age
compares the young infant's weight with the
infants of the same age in the reference
population .
• The VERY LOW WEIGHT FOR AGE identifies
children whose weight is –3 standard
deviations below the mean weight of infants LW
in the reference population (Z score <-3).
• The LOW WEIGHT FOR AGE identifies VLW
children whose weight is –2 standard
deviations below the mean weight of infants
in the reference population (Z score <-2).
32. MALNUTRITION
SEVERE MALNUTRITION
(Visible severe wasting or Oedema of both feet)
– Not able to feed or
– No attachment at all or
– Not suckling at all or
– Possible Serious bacterial infection
33. MALNUTRITION
• Vitamin A is given to a child with measles or severe
malnutrition.
• Vitamin A helps resist the measles virus infection in the
eye as well as in the layer of cells that line the
lung, gut, mouth and throat.
• It may also help the immune system to prevent other
infections.
• Treat the underlying causes (e.g. Infections –
Diarrhoea, Respiratory Infections, Malaria etc. ;
Infestations)
34. MALNUTRITION
LOW WEIGHT
• Feeding problem
• Not well attached to breast or
• Not suckling effectively or
• Less than 8 breastfeeds in 24 hours or
• Receiving other foods or drinks or
• Thrush (ulcers or white patches in mouth)
• Breast or nipple problems
35. MALNUTRITION
NO FEEDING PROBLEM
• Not low weight for age and no other signs of inadequate
feeding
• Assess the child’s feeding and counsel the mother
accordingly on feeding.
At leasthalf of the child's energy intake should come from foods other than milk or milkproducts.
Normal saline does not correct acidosis or replace potassium losses, but can be used. Plain glucose or dextrose solutions are not acceptable for the treatment of severedehydration.
Bacillary dysentery, caused by Shigella, a bacterium. In Western Europe and the USA it is the most common type of dysentery among people who have not recently been to the tropics.Amoebic dysentery (amoebiasis) This is caused by Entamoebahistolytica, a type of amoeba, and is more common in the tropics. An amoeba is a protozoan (single-celled) organism that constantly changes shape
Any chest indrawing, even if it is not severe, is an indicator of severe pneumonia in a child age 2 months up to 5 years.; and
Any chest indrawing, even if it is not severe, is an indicator of severe pneumonia in a child age 2 months up to 5 years.; and
Both antibiotics are relatively inexpensive, widely available, and are on the essential drug list of the Ministry of Health.
