Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding
1. DR FAISAL AL HADDAD
CONSULTANT OF FAMILY MEDICINE &
OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH
Dysfunctional Uterine Bleedin
2. Background
DUB is irregular uterine bleeding that occurs in the absence of
recognizable pelvic pathology, general medical disease, or
pregnancy.
It reflects a disruption in the normal cyclic pattern of
ovulatory hormonal stimulation to the endometrial lining.
The bleeding is unpredictable in many ways. It may be
excessively heavy or light and may be prolonged, frequent, or
random.
About 1-2% of women with improperly managed anovulatory
bleeding eventually may develop endometrial cancer.
3. Signs and symptoms
DUB should be suspected in patients with
unpredictable or episodic heavy or light bleeding
despite a normal pelvic examination.
Typically, the usual moliminal symptoms that
accompany ovulatory cycles will not precede
bleeding episodes.
4. Signs and symptoms
Because DUB is considered a diagnosis of exclusion, the
presence or absence of signs and symptoms of other causes of
anovulatory bleeding must be determined.
Patients who report irregular menses since menarche may
have polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
PCOS is characterized by anovulation or oligo-ovulation and
hyperandrogenism.
These patients often present with unpredictable cycles and/or
infertility, hirsutism with or without hyperinsulinemia, and
obesity.
5. Signs and symptoms
Thyroid enlargement or manifestations of
hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism
Galactorrhea: May suggest hyperprolactinemia
Visual field deficits: Raise suspicion of
intracranial/pituitary lesion
Ecchymosis, purpura: Signs of bleeding disorder
7. Diagnosis
Imaging studies
In obese patients with a suboptimal pelvic examination or in patients with
suspected ovarian or uterine pathology, pelvic ultrasonographic evaluation may
be helpful.
Ultrasonography can be used to identify uterine fibroids, as well as endometrial
conditions, including hyperplasia, carcinoma, and polyps.
Procedures
Rule out endometrial carcinoma in all patients at high risk for the condition
Traditionally, carcinoma was ruled out by endometrial sampling via D&C.
However, endometrial sampling in the office via aspiration, curetting, or
hysteroscopy has become popular and is also relatively accurate.
8. Management
Pharmacologic treatment
Oral contraceptives: Suppress endometrial development, reestablish
predictable bleeding patterns, decrease menstrual flow, and lower the risk
of iron deficiency anemia
Estrogen: Prolonged uterine bleeding suggests the epithelial lining of the
cavity has become denuded over time; estrogen administered alone will
rapidly induce a return to normal endometrial growth
Progestins: Chronic management of DUB requires episodic or continuous
exposure to a progestin
Desmopressin: A synthetic analogue of arginine vasopressin, desmopressin
has been used as a last resort to treat abnormal uterine bleeding in patients
with documented coagulation disorders
9. Management
Hysterectomy may be necessary in patients who :
have failed or declined hormonal therapy,
have symptomatic anemia, and
are experiencing a disruption in their quality of life from
persistent, unscheduled bleeding.
Endometrial ablation is an alternative for patients who
wish to avoid hysterectomy or who are not candidates for
major surgery.
