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.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
2. WHAT ARE EMERGENCIES/CRISIS
• These are sources of risk and therefore have
the probability of causing an undesired event.
• Types of crisis that may be encountered
include:-political and social unrest, Personal tragedy, Threats to personal
safety, Injury or serious illness,Harassment,Natural disasters, crime and
industrial accidents.
3. RISK CONTROL ACTIVITIES
• These are steps that are taken to change the
level of risk involved with the hazard. These
include:-
design,construction,maintenance,operations,p
ublic awareness, and developing of local
response teams.
4. Emergency response plan
• -Actions an employer puts down in writing to that defines
actions that must be taken to tackle emergencies when
they arise. It is company specific and it must cover areas
wherever the company has assets, or wherever an
emergency could have an impact. The facility must address
areas even if they are not on company property.
• Emergency responders:
-workers who perform rescue duties/evacuation during
emergencies
- Employer provides training and proper equipment so that
these responders carry out their duties safety.
5. PURPOSE
-Emergency action plan provide guideline to
workplaces during emergency.
- Improve the handling of a crisis, reduce costs
and injuries, and prevent a chain reaction of
crises.
- -Crises are always unexpected. It is important
to decides how accessible your organization
will be in case of emergencies
6. THE SCOPE OF AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
ERP’S must contain the following:
-facility description and site plan;
-impact maps;
Emergency procedures;
Resources list;
-incident command systems;
-Emergency planning;
-Hazard identification;
-Training and
- documentation
7. FACILITY DESCRIPTION AND SITE PLAN
• This shows the possible extent of an
emergency
• Detailed information:
• -Public,private;commercial ; industrial;
geological ;roads etc.
9. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
• Only authorised persons are competent to
perform the duties involved in safely
controlling an incident such as:
-stopping the source
-activating foam systems;
-Shorting down pumps;
-using portable fire extinguishers ; and
-Rescue
* Do not attempt to perform emergency response duties unless you are trained and
authorized!
10. NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES
• Who to notify:
-Emergency responders;
-Agencies(police,fire,medical,environmental;
-Supervisors;
-Management etc
.Details on what type of incidents to report, when to
report them, who is to make the report and how
the notifications are to be made should be included
in the plan.
11. NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES cont’d
• ALARM/COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AND HOW ALARMS
WILL BE ACTIVATED
- In a situation requiring evacuation, the first step is to let
all occupational know they must leave the building
- Occupants must know which alarm means to evacuate
- Once the alarm has gone off, everyone(except key
personal assigned to special operations) must leave the
facility and not return until an “All Clear” signal is given
- The all clear is usually given by whoever is designated in
the plan.
12. RESOURCES
• Contains the details and locations of the
equipment,supplies,tools,vendors, and
contractors, that are available for an
emergency response
14. EMERGENCY PLANNING
• This has to do with:
• Building competence in the responders and
employees for various types of
emergencies.e.g fire or explosions, medical,
natural disaster,bussiness interruptions
15. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATIONS
1. EMERGENCIES THE EMPLOYER MAY REASONABLY
EXPECT IN THE WORKPLACE
- Material safety data sheets.
-Do Potential risks(Vulnerability Analysis)
• First determine what emergencies are most likely to occur in
the facility and
• What level of harm they might cause-could result from
natural causes
• Prioritize those emergencies with the highest risk. Although
the emergency action plan will address all the emergencies in
some way,
• In the plan focus on the most likely event.
16. TRAINING
• Fight or Flight....
- Different people react in different ways, some may
have the instinct to call for help ,others may rush in
to attempt to rescue or put out a fire
- -regardless of the type of emergency, proper training
will help emergency responders protect themselves
and others.
- -without proper training emergency responders can
place themselves at risk and actually worsen the
situation.
17. EMERGENCY ESCAPE PROCEDURES AND ROUTES
-Escape routes must meet the following criteria:
.There are enough exists
.Exits are not blocked
.Exits are clearly marked with( many emergency situations involve smoke and
fire that make it difficult to see)
.The routes to the exits must be wide enough to accommodate the number of
occupants normally in the building
.Exit leads to a public thoroughfare( not to a closed area like a courtyard)
.Escape route do not lead through any area that may cause more danger to
the evacuees(such as an area where hazardous materials are stored)
.secondary routes are available incase the primary routes are blocked.
18. 5.PROCEDURES FOR ASSISTING WORKERS AND VISITORS WITH
DISABILITY
-The plan must address how workers, guest and
visitors with disabilities will be assisted out of the
building and who will help them
-staff and other occupants must be moved to a safe
area.
.The safe area must be far enough from the building
so as to not hamper emergency operations and
also provide safety for those evacuated.
.Emergency shelter may be needed in some
situations.
19. 6.PROCEDURES TO ACCOUNT FOR ALL
EMPLOYEES AFTER An evacuation
• .Once workers are safely out of the building, there
must be a way to account for the occupants of the
building.
• .The plan must be designate where people will gather
to be accounted for, and who will take attendance.
• .it is important that workers know not to leave the
area until they have been accounted for!
• It is vital that the employer knows how many visitors
and guests are in the building and account for them.
20. 7.PROCEDURES FOR THOSE WHO REMAIN BEHIND TO
OPERATE CRITICAL OPERATIONS
-Procedures for staff who do not immediately evacuate.
.In some cases some staff may need to perform particular tasks before getting
out of the workplace such as :
.shutting down heating ventilation and air conditioning(HVAC) systems to stop
the spread of smoke, fire and/or contaminants.
.shutting down key processes such as critical systems in hospitals,
experiments in the laboratory or chlorine processes in waste water
treatment.
.backing up information systems
.Acting as floor captains to make sure that everyone lives.
.Giving first aid
.
21. 8.NAMES OF KEY PERSONNEL
• List of Key Personnel
.If workers are to perform any duties other than
evacuation during an emergency, the names
of these individuals must be listed in the plan
and they must be trained in the duties
22. 9.RESCUE AND MEDICAL PROCEDURES
- In an emergency there is always the potential that workers and responders may be injured.
The employer should find out which medical facilities are closest to them.
- It is crucial that that the emergency medical services(EMS) be able to get to the facility in a
seasonable amount of time.
- Contact names and numbers must be listed in the plan and kept current.
- In certain cases, it may be necessary to have emergency medical and rescue services on site
for example.
. Employers in remote areas
.high security situations or
.employers with high hazard operations
.employers providing emergency medical care on site must be sure to keep all supplies stocked
and easy to get to in an emergency
.procedures for special situations, such as precautions involving certain chemicals and
equipment.
23. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Decontamination:
- Workers may become contaminated either during
an emergency or during evacuation processes if
the employer uses certain hazardous materials
such as corrosives ,toxics or radioactive agents)
.Procedures to decontaminate workers and usually
they must be decontaminated before emergency
medical services will take them to a medical
facility.
24. SHELTERING IN -PLACE
• In some situations evacuation is not always the proper response or only a certain
section of a facility is evacuated “Shelter in-place” may be necessary in:
- Correctional facilities
- Health care facilities
- During certain chemicals releases or high winds
- Sheltering in-place may require staff to take actions such as
. Shutting down the HVAC systems.
.Blocking air/smoke/ contaminants from coming inside the “safe areas using towels,
blankets, duct tape etc
.Moving to a basement or shelter area
.shorting up glass doors and windows
.Procedures to shelter in-place need to be in writing. Staff who have to perform ant of
the action listed above must be trained and have an opprtunity to prctice the
required procedures.
25. DOCUMENTATION
• Serves three purposes
- As a learning tool;
-As a planning tool;
-To protect the company in case of future litigation
-Required documentations:
-Incident action plan
-press releases
-Personal log
-Notification logs
-Incident maps;
-And
-Detailed plans that are provided to government
26. CONCLUSION:
• Address workers’ needs following an emergency and resuming operations
• Evaluate and modify the plan as needed after drills and/or a real event.
• Display the final plan conspicuously for all to see and be familiar with
•“ A little caution
saves dangerous
situation”
