This document summarizes a child survival program in Rwanda that integrated community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) with community-based integrated management of childhood illness (C-IMCI). The program aimed to reduce childhood mortality and morbidity through community case management of common illnesses like diarrhea, pneumonia, fever and malnutrition. Over 300,000 children under five were direct beneficiaries. Key interventions included oral rehydration, zinc, feeding practices, hygiene practices, prompt treatment, bed nets, outpatient therapeutic programs for severe acute malnutrition, and community kitchens. The integration of nutrition services helped treat over 8,000 acutely malnourished children and increased awareness, funding and support for malnutrition issues in Rwanda. Fact

Nyaya Health is a non-profit organization that provides healthcare in rural Nepal. It operates Bayalpata Hospital, which offers free inpatient, outpatient, emergency, and obstetric services. Nyaya Health aims to develop a scalable model of healthcare delivery through transparency, accountability, and collaboration both within its teams and with other organizations. It shares operational data through an open-access wiki and communicates among teams using low-bandwidth technologies. Nyaya Health has also collaborated with Tiyatien Health in Liberia to enhance practices in both countries. Developing an effective model presents challenges around resources, infrastructure, and local engagement.

This document summarizes strategies for strengthening health services to deliver improved nutrition. It outlines that while evidence-based interventions exist to address persistent nutrition issues like stunting and anemia, they require an equitable and high-quality delivery system. This involves developing the nutrition workforce through appropriate policies, training, supervision and resources. It also stresses the need to build community demand for better services and coordinate delivery across sectors through multi-level strengthening of health systems and partnerships with frontline workers. The goal is to systematically support service providers and empower communities to drive improved nutrition outcomes.

Care Group Operations Research in Burundi and Niger_Jennifer Weiss_4.23.13
This document summarizes operations research being conducted on Care Group models in Burundi and Niger. In Burundi, the research is comparing a traditional Care Group model to an integrated model where community health workers and health facility staff are more involved in training and supervision. Preliminary results show both models achieve similar improvements in knowledge and functionality. The integrated model shows potential for improved sustainability. In Niger, the research is assessing whether Care Group leader mothers can deliver integrated community case management of common childhood illnesses. Formative research found the community is receptive and training tools are being developed. The overall goal is to test innovative Care Group approaches that can be adopted within existing health systems.

World Federation of Public Health Associations Presentation on Citizen Voice ...
Citizen Voice and Action is a social accountability approach used by World Vision to improve relationships between communities and governments to strengthen services like health care and education. It is implemented in 411 areas in 43 countries. The approach involves community members monitoring local services and providing report cards and action plans to address issues. Studies in Uganda found it led to improved quality of care at health facilities and reduced under-five mortality and increased skilled birth attendance. Similar results were seen in Zambia with staffing and waiting time improvements. The approach can also be used to influence policies by linking community data to advocacy efforts. Emerging lessons indicate accountability works best when civil society and communities collaborate constructively with government.

This document summarizes efforts to strengthen rural sanitation programs and policies in India, Indonesia, and Tanzania between 2007-2012. It monitored key components of an enabling environment for scaling up access, including financing, institutional arrangements, product supply, and implementation approaches. Baseline and endline assessments showed most progress was made where enabling environments were strongest. Real-time monitoring helped address bottlenecks. Strengthening policies and sectors can accelerate rates of access, as demonstrated by a 3% increased rate in East Java, Indonesia. Ongoing monitoring of enabling environments is important for sustainable scaling of rural sanitation.

Cultural variations in attachment
The document discusses cultural variations in attachment theory and research. It compares individualist Western cultures like the US to more collectivist Eastern cultures like Japan. Some key points made include:
1) Attachment theory was originally developed based on Western ideals that emphasize independence, but may not apply universally across cultures.
2) Research has found that children in collectivist cultures show more signs of dependency and interdependence, which are viewed negatively in the West.
3) A meta-analysis of studies across many countries found that rates of insecure attachment varied significantly depending on cultural norms.

IAC-15.B2.5.1_paper
This document describes the design and simulation of a multiband patch antenna using a Pythagorean fractal structure. In the base antenna design, resonance is achieved at 8GHz. The first fractal iteration uses a Pythagorean triangle equation to modify the patch shape. In simulation, this first iteration achieves two resonances, at 8.2GHz and 9.2GHz, when fed by both a coaxial probe and microstrip line. While the radiation patterns are not perfectly broadside, radiation still occurs in the upper quadrant. The simple fractal structure provides a potential way to miniaturize antennas while achieving multiband performance.

PSI Diarrhea Prevention and Safe Water Approaches
Unsafe water and lack of sanitation are major global problems, contributing to over 1.5 million child deaths from diarrhea each year. Household water treatment (HWT) options like sodium hypochlorite, Aquatabs, and PUR can provide low-cost solutions, treating water for a family of 6 for less than a penny per day. Social marketing approaches that combine communications and product access have helped programs in over 30 countries treat over 60 billion liters of water, improving health behaviors and reducing diarrhea prevalence in places like Madagascar. Lessons show that focusing on key behavior drivers, partnerships, and multiple communication channels can enable HWT to effectively and affordably scale up safe water access.

The document summarizes the Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP) which aims to end preventable newborn deaths and stillbirths by 2035. The ENAP sets targets to reduce newborn mortality to 10 deaths or less per 1,000 live births and stillbirths to 10 deaths or less per 1,000 total births in every country. It outlines five strategic objectives focused on improving care around labor, birth and the first week of life. The ENAP will be launched in 2014 to mobilize global action and accountability for newborns within the post-2015 development framework.
Integrating Family Planning Into CSHGP and MCH Programs
The document discusses integrating family planning into maternal and child health programs. It provides historical context and examples of how flexible funds have supported family planning integration. Specific strategies discussed include community-based distribution of contraceptives, increasing postpartum family planning access, mobile family planning services, birth spacing messaging, and integrating abortion prevention and post-abortion care.
Mobile value added nutrition extension services and women economic empowerm...
This document summarizes a randomized controlled trial conducted in Malawi that examined the impact of mobile nutrition extension services on women's time allocation to unpaid care work and income-generating activities. The trial involved 160 women smallholder farmers, with 80 in the treatment group receiving 24 mobile messages on health, agriculture and general topics, and 80 in the control group receiving 12 messages. Analysis found no significant difference in time spent on care work between groups. However, the treatment group spent over 70% more time on income-generating activities and had significantly less sleep. This suggests a prioritization of messages related to livelihoods over health and care. The findings have implications for using mobile services to promote nutrition through both health practices and improved income.

Nutrition as part of ICCM: Evidence, Challenges and Future Directions of Re...
1) Integrated Community Case Management (ICCM) uses community health workers to treat common childhood illnesses and malnutrition where access to health facilities is limited. However, the extent to which ICCM programs actually implement nutrition interventions is unclear.
2) A review of ICCM and nutrition integration programs found that ICCM can achieve high coverage and quality of care for severe acute malnutrition, and may be cost-effective, but questions remain around motivation, policies, protocols, intervention bundles, and health systems support.
3) To address remaining evidence gaps, organizations will launch a desk review, convene a follow-up meeting, and prepare operational research plans generated through collaboration between ICCM and nutrition communities.

Every newborn-in-context-of-global-initiatives-hanifah-sengendo
This document outlines global initiatives to improve newborn survival and health in Uganda. It discusses several linked initiatives including Every Woman Every Child, A Promise Renewed, Born Too Soon, and the UN Commission on Life Saving Commodities. In Uganda, 147,000 children die each year including 33,000 within the first day of birth. Progress in reducing mortality has been slower for newborns than other groups. The document proposes the EVERY NEWBORN action plan to fit within existing initiatives and accelerate reductions in newborn deaths through country-led plans, transparency, and global support.

Improving Quality of Care in Partnership with Governments and Communities_5.8.14
The document summarizes Pathfinder International's Community and Clinical Action for Postpartum Hemorrhage Plus (CCA-PPH+) model for preventing maternal mortality from postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). The model aims to strengthen the continuum of care from community to facility level through community awareness campaigns, training community health workers and facilities. A key component is the non-pneumatic anti-shock garment (Life Wrap) used to stabilize women with PPH and shock before transfer to facilities for treatment. Evaluations found the full CCA-PPH+ model more effectively reduced PPH cases and mortality than any single intervention such as the Life Wrap alone.
Care Group Innovations
Care Group innovations are being tested and implemented by multiple organizations. Presentations will discuss integrating savings groups into Care Groups, testing "Trios" as a modification to the Care Group model, and Concern Worldwide's "Integrated" Care Group approach.

It discusses improving advocacy and policies, strengthening health and agriculture systems through training, promoting small actions through various communication channels, and monitoring progress. The steps include assessing needs, enhancing partnerships, building on existing programs, training providers, and strengthening delivery systems. Case studies from Madagascar and Ethiopia show training thousands of community volunteers and health workers in the ENA framework.
Impact of decentralization on immunization services in kenya
- The REC (Reaching Every District) approach implemented in Kenya effectively reduced the number of unvaccinated children in targeted districts by empowering districts to plan and monitor their own immunization services. This community-engaged approach promoted partnerships between districts, health workers, and communities.
- Using phone contacts to trace immunization defaulters in four western Kenya districts proved feasible. It significantly reduced dropout rates and revealed that most defaulters were not truly lost but had received vaccines elsewhere. Competing tasks were a main reason for defaulting.
- Proper planning and funding mechanisms like the HSSF could support scaling up cost-effective approaches like using phone contacts that engage communities and increase access to immunization.

Wellness and Agriculture for Life Advancement (WALLA)
This document summarizes a food security program in Malawi called Wellness and Agriculture for Life Advancement (WALA). The program aimed to reduce food insecurity for over 214,000 households. Key activities included improving maternal and child health, smallholder farming, and community capacity. The program was implemented by several organizations and involved conservation agriculture, village savings and loans, and direct food assistance. Lessons learned stressed the importance of clear targeting, planning, understanding of synergies between sectors, and monitoring mechanisms to promote integration across activities and organizations.
mhealth - hype or help?
This document discusses the potential for mobile health (mhealth) technologies to help address healthcare challenges in remote areas with limited resources. It provides examples of how SMS and other mobile technologies have been used in a pilot project in Kenya to:
1) Provide patient follow-up, adherence tracking, and reporting of new symptoms to improve information sharing and care. This saved fuel costs and staff time.
2) Enable remote care requests, drug information, and point-of-care support to enhance patient care. This led to more patients enrolling in health programs.
3) Help manage drug and supply stockouts, support group coordination, training, and CHW communication to improve healthcare logistics and operations.

Community- IMCI
This document discusses improving community health through an integrated community case management (ICCM) approach. The ICCM approach has 3 components: improving case management by health staff, strengthening the overall health system, and engaging families and communities through practices. A key part of the community component is utilizing community health workers and mobilizing communities.
Boosting Nutrition Impact via Integrated Program Strategies
The document summarizes an integrated nutrition program in Bangladesh called Jibon o Jibika that targeted 200,000 children under age 2. It showed that reducing undernutrition was more effective when all program components, such as food production, marketing, health, water and sanitation, were implemented together. Stunting, wasting, and being underweight declined more in areas where all components worked together. Dietary diversity and income also increased more in integrated areas. The document discusses proven interventions to reduce undernutrition and calls for more evidence on how best to integrate different sector approaches, prioritize interventions, and strengthen programs targeting mothers and children under age 2.

The document summarizes a community-directed intervention project in Nigeria to improve malaria control among pregnant women. Key points:
- The project trained community volunteers to provide intermittent preventive treatment (IPTp) and insecticide-treated bednets in their communities, in addition to clinic services. This increased access to malaria prevention and treatment.
- Evaluation found higher uptake of IPTp and bednets in intervention areas compared to control areas relying solely on clinics. However, stockouts of commodities and user fees reduced impact.
- Community involvement through volunteers was effective but regular support is needed. Advocacy is also key to ensure free services and continuous supply of medicines and bednets.

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.Promoting Wellbeing - Applied Social Psychology - Psychology SuperNotes

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
