The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

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.

Hypothermia
Electrolytes imbalance
Severe hypovitaminosis
Opthalmopathies
Respiratory infections :
Hypoglycemia
Infection
Wounds and ulcers
4. Management of anaemia in
Undernourished(PEM) children
To start treatment:
• give oxygen
• measure and record pulse and respiration rates every 15 minutes
A blood transfusion is required if:
• Hb is less than 4 g/dl or if there is respiratory distress and Hb is between 4 and 6 g/dl
Give:
• whole blood 10 ml/kg body weight slowly over 3 hours
• furosemide 1 mg/kg IV at the start of the transfusion
It is particularly important that the volume of 10 ml/kg is not exceeded in
severely malnourished children. If the severely anaemic child has signs of
cardiac failure, transfuse packed cells (5-7 ml/kg) rather than whole blood.
Monitor for signs of transfusion reactions. If any of the following signs develop
during the transfusion, stop the transfusion:
• fever
• itchy rash
• dark red urine
• confusion
• shock
Note: Deficit x wt x 4.5 OR Deficit x wt x 6
5. Anemia Contd
Also monitor the respiratory rate and pulse rate
every 15 minutes. If either of
them rises, transfuse more slowly. Following the
transfusion, if the Hb remains
less than 4 g/dl or between 4 and 6 g/dl in a child
with continuing respiratory distress, DO NOT
repeat the transfusion within 4 days.
In mild or moderate
anemia, oral iron should be given for two months
to replenish iron stores
BUT this should not be started until the child has
begun to gain weight.
7. Management of shock
Shock and severe dehydration some
complication.
Shock from dehydration and sepsis are likely to
coexist in severely malnourished children. They are
difficult to differentiate on clinical signs alone.
Children with dehydration will respond to IV fluids.
Those with septic shock and no dehydration will not
respond. The amount of fluid given is determined by
the child’s response. Overhydration must be avoided.
8. Reliable points

9. Identifying dehydration signs
The posterior fontanelle
generally closes 8–12
weeks after birth;
Anterior fontanelle
closes 6 to 18 months
after birth;
10. Treatment of dehydration
Whenever possible
should be rehydrated
orally. IV infusion easily
causes overhydration
and heart failure should
only be used when

11. • give oxygen
• give sterile 10% glucose (5 ml/kg) by IV
• give IV fluid at 15 ml/kg over 1 hour. Use Ringer’s lactate with
5%
dextrose; or half-normal saline with 5% dextrose; or half-strength
Darrow’s solution with 5% dextrose; or if these are unavailable,
Ringer’s lactate
• measure and record pulse and respiration rates every 10
minutes
• give antibiotics
If there are signs of improvement (pulse and respiration
rates fall):
• repeat IV 15 ml/kg over 1 hour; then switch to oral or
nasogastric rehydration with ReSoMal, 10 ml/kg/h for up to 10
hours. (Leave IV in place in case required again);
Give ReSoMal in alternate hours with starter F-75, then
• continue feeding with starter F-75
12. Developed septic shock
Begin IV rehydration immediately 15ml/kg in 1 hr.
continously observe for overhydration. As soon as radial
pulse become palpable start orally or NG.
If signs of congestive heart failure develop or does not
improve after 1st hr, give blood transfusion(10ml/kg)
over at least 3 hrs.
If there are signs of liver failure ( purpura, jaundice,
tender hepatomegaly), give a single ose of 1 mgVit K IM.
- If sign of congestive heart failure( distension of jugular
veins, increasing resp rate or resp distress), give a
diuretic and slow rate of transfusion.No concomitant
fluid administration
If child develops abdominal distension or vomits
repeatedly give the diet slowly if problem does not
resolvr, stop feeding the child give fluid at rate of 2-
4ml/kg per hour.
Also give 2ml of 50% Mg sulphate IM.
If the child fails to improve after the first hour of
treatment

15. Management of hypothermia
Hypothermia is a reduction in the mean body
temperature. In severe malnutrition, this
complication is defined by WHO as a rectal
temperature below 35.5 °C (95.9 °F) or an
underarm temperature below 35.0° C (95.0
°F).WHO
Worst with marasmus that kwashiorkor
Several factors cause hypothermia etc
16. Methods to Treat Hypothermia
One of the first steps in initiation/resuscitative
kangaroo technique". infants or early under 5
Alternatively, the child can be well clothed,
including the head, covered with a warmed blanket
and placed under an incandescent lamp, making
sure that the lamp does not touch the child's body.
The use of hot-water bottles is not recommended.
18. Management of hypoglycemia in
undernurished children
Hypoglycaemia, is defined as a blood
glucose concentration of less than three
(mmol/l) or less than 54 (mg/dl) in
children with severe malnutrition.
Children cut of in africa is less than
2.6mmol/liter(Tropical Paediatrics)
Hypoglycaemia is a common
brain damage – since glucose is the
main fuel for the brain – Severe
lack- ultimately death.
19. Continue
The underlying causes
A. Reduced muscle wasting.
B. Impaired glucose equilibrium by converting
protein and fat reserves into glucose are impaired.
C. The immune response to infections.
D. Glucose absorption is impaired.
E. Poor feeding technique and lack or limited availability
.
The signs of hypoglycaemia
include a body temperature of less than 36.5 °C, lethargy,
limpness and loss of consciousness .
Confirmed low value on handy glucometer.
20.
21. If the hypoglycemic child is conscious and is
able to drink, then he/she should be given 50 ml of
10% glucose or 10% sucrose (one rounded teaspoon
of sugar in 3.5 tablespoons water). Then he/she
should be provided, orally, with an F-75 diet every 30
minutes for two hours.
if the child is unconscious, cannot be aroused or
is convulsing, then he/she must receive
intravenously 5 ml/kg of body weight of sterile 10%
glucose, followed by 50 ml of 10% glucose or sucrose
by nasogastric tube. If intravenous glucose cannot be
given immediately, then the nasogastric dose should
be given first.
22. When the child regains consciousness,
F-75 diet should be started , every two to three hours day
and night of The F-75(75kcal or 315kJ/100mls), It
consists of dried skimmed milk, sugar, cereal flour, oil,
mineral mix and vitamin mix, and thus is low in protein,
fat and sodium, and high in carbohydrates.
Treat infections which is an underlying cause of
hypoglycemia.
However, shortfalls, such as insufficient monitoring of
the feedings by health professionals, neglect of night
feedings5, inadequacy of the meals provided,
unfamiliarity with best practices and guidelines for the
treatment of severe malnutrition, continue to
compromise care. Further training of health-care
providers should be considered.

6-12 months 100,000IU
>12 months 200,000IU
Day 2 Repeat same dose
2 weeks later Repeat same dose
in follow-up
24. Treatment of infection
Nearly all severely malnourished children have bacterial infections when first
admitted. LRTI is especially common. Unlike well nourished children, who
respond like fever and inflammation, malnourished children with serious
infection may only be drowsy and apathetic.
Early anti microbial treatment improves nutritional response, prevent septic
shock, reduce mortality.
These are divided into
First line treatment.
Which is given empirically to all.
Co-trimoxazole BD 5 Days
Ampicillin 2 days then amoxicillin for 5 days
Gentamycin 7 days
Second line treatment
If no response, add chloramphenicol for 5 days.
If specific infection is detected like dysentery, candidiasis, malaria, intestinal
helminthiasis, then treat accordingly
Tuberculosis is also very common, ATT should be given only when TB is
daignosed.
Measles and other viral infections
All should be given measles vaccine on admission and on discharge
All must Immunised for age before discharge .Clerk for missed opportunity.
