LOW BIRTH WEIGHT (ACTIONS TAKEN BY BMOH)
PROPORTION OF LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABIES IN YOUR BLOCK IS VERY HIGH, AS A BMOH HOW WILL YOU TACKLE WITH THE SITUATION ?
Neonatal Care
The document summarizes neonatal public health policies in Itajaí, Brazil. It notes that Itajaí has over 200,000 residents with around 3,000 live births per year, most in public maternity facilities. Child mortality rates were high from 2010-2013. The document outlines pillars for adequate healthcare including surveillance, care, and support. It proposes a care movement with improved prenatal, birth, and home care. Mortality rates declined from 2013 to 2014 after implementing these policies. The document stresses the need to continue these efforts to further reduce neonatal deaths.
Low birth weight

- Ventilation must be initiated within 1 minute of birth, and all efforts should be made to help the mother initiate breastfeeding within the first hour.
- Newborns requiring special care, such as those born prematurely or with low birth weight, should be identified and referred appropriately.
- All precautions must be taken to prevent infection, hypothermia, and the mother should be counseled on danger signs and the importance of follow-up visits and immunizations.
Essential Newborn Care.pdf
This document provides information on essential newborn care including the characteristics and care of healthy newborns. It describes the physical and physiological characteristics that define a healthy newborn, such as average weight, length, head circumference, respiratory rate and temperature. It outlines the objectives and components of essential newborn care, which includes immediate basic care procedures like maintaining temperature, initiating breathing, and establishing an open airway. It provides steps for immediate care at birth and details various aspects of daily routine newborn care such as breastfeeding, skin care, eye care, clothing and observation.
Dr.Ayesha.pptx
Newborn health and nutrition are important topics in Pakistan. The document discusses Pakistan's high neonatal mortality rate of 41 deaths per 1000 live births, one of the highest in the world. It emphasizes the importance of early essential newborn care, including immediate skin-to-skin contact and exclusive breastfeeding, to improve survival chances. The document provides guidance on caring for newborns, including keeping them warm, helping them breathe and begin breastfeeding, and preventing infections through clean practices. Innovations like kangaroo mother care and exclusive breastfeeding up to six months are also recommended.
ART OF NEONATAL EXAMINATION & DANGER SIGNS.ppt
The document provides guidance on examining a normal newborn infant. It defines a normal newborn and discusses important tasks in the first few hours of life, including cleaning the baby, identification marking, weighing, vitamin K administration, and examination for any issues. It also covers concerns in the initial days, like cord care, eye care, jaundice evaluation, bathing, and safe sleep position. The document recommends discharge after 72-96 hours once the infant is healthy, immunized, breastfeeding adequately, and the mother is confident caring for the baby at home.
Postnatal & neonatal care
Postnatal and neonatal care aim to ensure the health of both the mother and newborn. Postnatal care involves restoring the mother's health after delivery, preventing complications, providing basic care and services, and educating on family planning. Visits should occur within 48 hours, on days 3 and 7, at 6 weeks, and monthly until 1 year. Complications include sepsis, hemorrhage, phlebitis, and infections. Neonatal care helps newborns adapt outside the womb through essential actions at birth like cleaning, feeding, and assessments. Risks include infections, hypothermia, and birth asphyxia, which can be prevented through clean practices, warm environments, and emergency response.
Preterm Baby.pptx
The document discusses the care of preterm infants. Key points include:
- Preterm infants are born before 37 weeks of gestation.
- They require specialized care such as maintaining temperature, preventing infection, ensuring adequate nutrition and fluid intake.
- Kangaroo mother care involves skin-to-skin contact and has benefits such as improved temperature regulation, breastfeeding success and bonding.
- Nursing management focuses on supporting respiration, hydration and nutrition while promoting parent-infant attachment.
Enc lecture2
Basic care to support survival and wellbeing of newborns is called essential newborn care (ENC). ENC includes immediate care at birth, care during the first day, and up to 28 days. It is important to help initiate breastfeeding within the first hour of birth, identify and refer neonates requiring special care, take all precautions to prevent infection, hypothermia, and counsel mothers on danger signs and follow-up.
20230424 Neonatology for Obstetricians.pptx
This document provides guidance on neonatal care for obstetricians, including initial steps of newborn resuscitation, temperature regulation, cord clamping, glucose monitoring, breastfeeding support, and management of preterm infants. The key points are:
1. The initial steps of newborn resuscitation include warming, drying, stimulating breathing, positioning in sniffing position, and suction if needed.
2. Maintaining normal temperature is important as hypothermia can increase morbidities. Plastic wraps and radiant warmers can help stabilize preterm infants.
3. Delayed cord clamping for >30 seconds provides benefits for preterm and term infants like increased blood volume and lower morbid

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.REGULATION FOR COMBINATION PRODUCTS AND MEDICAL DEVICES.pptx
