Measles is a highly contagious viral disease that can be serious, especially in children. It remains a leading cause of death among young children globally despite availability of a safe and effective vaccine. In 2008 there were over 20 million cases of measles worldwide and 164,000 measles deaths, mostly children under 5 years old. Measles is caused by a virus that spreads through the air via coughs and sneezes or direct contact with infected secretions. Common symptoms include fever, runny nose, cough, red eyes, and a red rash. Prevention through vaccination is the most effective way to control measles and protect public health.

Measles
This document discusses measles, a highly contagious viral disease caused by the paramyxovirus. It defines three classifications of measles based on severity and presence of complications. The disease is transmitted through respiratory secretions, blood, and urine via direct contact with infected individuals. Clinical features include cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis, fever, Koplik spots, and rash. Complications can include otitis media, pneumonia, bronchitis, and convulsions. Nursing considerations for treatment involve isolation, rest, supportive care including vitamin A, and skin and eye care. Prevention focuses on controlling infection sources, interrupting transmission, protecting susceptibles through active/passive immunization, and routine measles vaccination
Measles
This document provides information about measles including:
1. Measles is caused by a paramyxovirus that is transmitted via respiratory droplets and spreads from the nasopharynx.
2. Clinical features include an incubation period of 10-12 days followed by a prodrome of fever and cough, appearance of Koplik spots in the mouth, and a maculopapular rash that starts on the face and spreads.
3. Complications can include diarrhea, otitis media, pneumonia, encephalitis, and death in rare cases. Vaccination with two doses of the MMR vaccine is recommended for prevention.

Measles is a highly infectious childhood disease caused by the measles virus. It is characterized by fever and a rash. While the disease itself is usually not fatal, it can lead to serious complications like pneumonia, encephalitis, and malnutrition. Transmission occurs via respiratory droplets. There is no specific treatment for measles, but supportive care and vitamin A supplementation can help recovery. Immunization with the measles vaccine provides lifelong protection and is the most effective preventive strategy.
Measles
Measles is an acute viral infection characterized by a maculopapular rash accompanied by high fever. It is highly contagious, spreading via respiratory droplets. The infection begins with prodromal symptoms like fever and cough, followed by appearance of the pathognomonic Koplik spots. A red rash then develops on the face and spreads to the rest of the body over several days. Treatment is supportive with rest, fluids and fever relief. Complications can include pneumonia and death, so vaccination is recommended at 12-15 months with potential earlier vaccination in outbreak situations.
Chicken pox
This document provides information about chickenpox including: describing the identification and infectious agent of chickenpox; explaining its incubation period, period of communicability, and modes of transmission; outlining susceptibility and prevention/control measures including isolation, disinfection, quarantine, and vaccination; and noting chickenpox is a common occurrence worldwide that spreads via contact with open blisters or respiratory droplets.
Mumps
Mumps is a viral infection that typically causes swelling of the parotid glands. It is caused by the mumps virus, an RNA virus spread through direct contact, airborne droplets, or contaminated fomites. Before widespread vaccination, mumps most commonly affected children ages 5-9, but now often occurs in young adults. While usually mild and self-limiting, complications can include meningitis, orchitis, deafness, and pancreatitis. Treatment is supportive and prevention relies on the mumps vaccine, usually administered as part of the MMR vaccine at 12-15 months and 4-6 years of age.
Measles
Measles is an acute viral infection characterized by a final stage with a maculopapular rash erupting successively over the neck and face, trunk, arms, and legs, and accompanied by a high fever.

The MMR vaccine provides protection against all three diseases and is an important tool for their control and elimination through vaccination programs outlined in the World Health Organization's Global Measles and Rubella Strategic Plan.
Measles
Measles is a highly contagious viral disease caused by the measles virus. It is characterized by fever, cough, runny nose, and a red blotchy rash. The measles virus lives in the mucus of the nose and throat and spreads through contact with infected droplets. Symptoms include high fever, sore eyes, small white spots inside the mouth, and a spreading rash. Complications can include ear infections, pneumonia, and encephalitis. There is no specific treatment for measles other than managing symptoms, but vaccination provides excellent lifelong immunity against the virus.
Pertusis or Whooping cough class presentation
Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis. It is characterized by severe coughing fits that can end in a "whooping" sound. It primarily affects children under 5 years old. The disease spreads through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It can be prevented through active immunization with the DPT vaccine, which is recommended in 5 doses for children up to age 6.

Small pox and chickenpox
Smallpox was a deadly disease that killed millions each year until its eradication in 1980 through a global vaccination campaign led by the WHO. It was caused by the variola virus and spread through respiratory droplets. Symptoms included a distinctive pustular rash that progressed through several stages. There was no treatment, so prevention through vaccination was critical. Edward Jenner's discovery of the cowpox vaccine in 1798 laid the foundation for eventually eliminating the disease worldwide over the following centuries through expanded vaccination efforts.
Measles
Measles is a highly infectious disease that affects children. It is caused by a virus and causes fever, runny nose, cough, and a red rash. While measles vaccination has reduced deaths, it remains a major cause of death in developing countries. The measles virus is transmitted through the air via coughing and sneezing. Complications from measles can include blindness, encephalitis, and pneumonia. Prevention relies on achieving high vaccination rates of at least 95% through routine childhood immunization.
Pertussis (whooping cough)

Measles
Measles is a highly contagious viral illness that spreads through the air. It begins with fever, runny nose, cough, red eyes, and small white spots inside the mouth. A rash develops 3-7 days later that spreads from the face to the rest of the body. While most people recover without complications, measles can sometimes cause pneumonia, brain swelling, or even death. The measles virus is preventable through vaccination with the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine.
Smallpox
Variola virus causes the acute, contagious disease smallpox. It was effectively eradicated through global vaccination efforts led by the WHO between 1966-1979. Smallpox is characterized by an initial fever and flu-like symptoms followed by a distinctive pustular rash. It spreads through respiratory droplets or direct contact with infected individuals or contaminated objects. Vaccination provided effective immunity and was a major factor in eliminating smallpox worldwide by 1980, making it the only human infectious disease to be fully eradicated.

Nigeria!
Nigeria is located in Western Africa along the Gulf of Guinea. It has 36 states and the capital is Abuja. The population is approximately 150 million with an average life expectancy of around 50 years, lowered by diseases like malaria, HIV/AIDS, and pollution from oil operations along the Niger River delta. The economy relies heavily on oil, petroleum, and mining, but Nigeria remains one of the world's 20 poorest countries. Women have little access to education and rights. Going forward, Nigeria needs to improve healthcare, boost the economy, strengthen the government, reduce poverty and pollution, and empower women.

Rubella, also known as German measles, is a contagious viral infection spread through respiratory droplets from infected individuals. It causes a distinctive red rash and swollen lymph nodes. While usually mild, rubella infection during pregnancy can cause fetal death or congenital defects known as congenital rubella syndrome. There is no specific treatment for rubella, but it is preventable through vaccination.

Chickenpox and smallpox
The document discusses chickenpox and smallpox. Chickenpox is caused by the varicella zoster virus and results in a characteristic itchy skin rash. It is highly contagious and spreads through the air via coughs or sneezes, or by contact with blisters. Smallpox was a deadly infectious disease caused by variola virus that killed hundreds of millions of people in history before being eradicated in 1980 through vaccination. It was transmitted through respiratory droplets and contact with lesions. Both diseases presented with skin rashes, though smallpox had a much higher mortality rate and often left survivors with scarring and blindness.
Vaccine preventable diseases
The document summarizes key information about several vaccine-preventable diseases including measles, rubella, mumps, diphtheria, tetanus, and chickenpox. It provides details on the infectious agents, reservoirs, modes of transmission, incubation periods, typical clinical manifestations, and potential complications for each disease. Vaccine recommendations for children and adolescents are also listed for measles, mumps, rubella, varicella, and diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis combinations.
Viral Diseases
Arboviruses are viruses spread by arthropods like mosquitoes. They are found worldwide depending on the mosquito species present. Prevention includes avoiding mosquito bites by wearing repellent and clothing, and removing standing water where mosquitoes can breed. Common arboviruses include Eastern Equine encephalitis, Western Equine encephalitis, and dengue.
Measle.pdf
Measles is a highly contagious viral disease that spreads through the air via coughs and sneezes or direct contact with infected nasal or throat secretions. It causes fever, red eyes, cough, runny nose and a red body rash. Before widespread vaccination, measles killed millions of people each year globally. The measles virus is diagnosed through clinical symptoms or laboratory tests detecting antibodies or viral RNA. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and preventing complications. Vaccination is the most effective prevention strategy through either passive immunization with immunoglobulin shortly after exposure or active immunization via the live attenuated measles vaccine, usually as part of the MMR vaccine administered between 6-15 months of age.
Small pox.pptx
Smallpox is caused by the variola virus and was once a major global killer but has been eradicated worldwide since 1980 due to an immunization campaign. It is transmitted through direct contact or inhalation of droplets from an infected person. The disease begins with flu-like symptoms and then a rash and blisters develop on the skin that can leave scars. Patients were isolated and healthcare workers wore protective equipment to prevent spread. A vaccine within 3 days of exposure could prevent or lessen the disease.
Measles
The document provides information on measles, mumps, and rubella. It discusses the causative agents, modes of transmission, clinical features, complications, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention including vaccination recommendations for each disease. Measles, mumps and rubella are acute viral illnesses that mainly affect children and can spread through respiratory droplets. They typically cause mild to moderate symptoms but measles and congenital rubella syndrome can lead to more serious complications in some cases. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent outbreaks of these contagious diseases.
MEASLES.pptx4445544444444444444444444444
This document provides information about measles. It defines measles as a highly contagious viral infection characterized by fever and rash. Measles virus is the cause and is transmitted through the air. It affects mostly unvaccinated children. Symptoms include fever, cough, runny nose and red eyes followed by a red rash. Complications can include pneumonia. Diagnosis is usually clinical but lab tests can also detect the virus. There is no specific treatment, only supportive care. Prevention is through measles vaccination, with two doses recommended.
Chickenpox -symptoms |tests |management ( medical information )
Chickenpox is a highly contagious viral infection that causes an acute fever and blistered rash, mainly in children.
The name may be derived from the French term for chick pea, chiche pois. Another theory is that the word 'chicken' was derived from a slang term for 'child'. Chickenpox is also known as varicella.

Measles (Rubeola)
Measles is a highly contagious viral infection that begins with a prodromal stage of fever, cough, coryza and conjunctivitis followed by a maculopapular rash. It spreads through respiratory droplets. Complications can include pneumonia, encephalitis and death. Treatment is supportive. Prevention is through two doses of the live attenuated MMR vaccine, recommended at 12-15 months and 4-6 years of age.
MEASLES - soon to be eradicated ..!!
Measles is an acute, highly infectious childhood disease caused by a paramyxovirus. It presents with fever, cough, coryza and a characteristic rash. While clinical features include prodrome, eruption and recovery phases, complications can include pneumonia, encephalitis and death. Transmission occurs from infected individuals and it is more prevalent in developing countries like India. Prevention through vaccination and immunoglobulins can provide up to 99% protection. WHO and India's strategies aim to eliminate measles through widespread vaccination coverage.
Epidemiology and control measures for CHICKENPOX {Varicella}
It is an acute, highly infectious disease caused by varicella-zoster(v-z) virus.
It is worldwide in distribution and occurs in both epidemic and endemic forms.
MEASLES - THEORY.ppt
Measles is a highly contagious disease that was one of the leading causes of death among children worldwide prior to widespread vaccination. While vaccination strategies using measles vaccines have controlled the disease in many areas, measles still causes over 100,000 deaths annually. Achieving and maintaining high vaccination rates of over 95% with two doses of measles vaccine is critical to eventually eliminating the disease globally. Challenges remain in reaching elimination targets due to weaknesses in immunization systems and changing epidemiology in certain populations.
Fever and rash by Dr.Uma
This document discusses diseases that present with fever and rash, focusing on measles, rubella, and hand, foot, and mouth disease. It describes the etiology, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of each condition. Measles is caused by a specific RNA virus and presents with a maculopapular rash. Rubella rash appears as pinpoint lesions and is generally milder than measles. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is common in children under 10 and caused by intestinal viruses, presenting with sores in the mouth and a non-itchy rash on the hands and feet.
Airborne diseases
General principles and epidemiology of airborne diseases. Most of the airborne diseases are vaccine preventable. Overall mortality due to airborne diseases is increased due to Covid 19. Quality of air is important in case of airborne infections.
evaluating a child with febrile rash
A pediatric patient presented with fever and a rash, which can indicate various illnesses ranging from minor to life-threatening. The differential diagnosis for febrile patients with a rash is extensive, including viral, bacterial, and other infectious etiologies. Proper evaluation and management of these patients is important as the severity of illness can vary greatly.
Epidemiology of measles.pptx. ..
- Measles is a highly infectious disease that affected many Indian children in the 1980s, but cases have significantly decreased since due to widespread immunization programs.
- The measles virus causes an acute illness characterized by fever and respiratory symptoms followed by a distinctive rash. It spreads through respiratory droplets.
- While most children recover without complications, measles can sometimes lead to pneumonia, encephalitis or death, particularly in malnourished children.
- Vaccination with the live attenuated measles vaccine is the most effective prevention strategy, providing long-term immunity after one dose at 9 months of age.
Trachoma
Trachoma is a bacterial infection of the eye that is caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. It is the leading infectious cause of blindness worldwide. The disease spreads through direct contact with infected eye or nasal secretions. Repeated infections over many years can cause scarring of the inner eyelid and the eyelashes to turn inward, rubbing against the eyeball and causing pain and blindness. The WHO recommends the SAFE strategy to treat and prevent trachoma through surgery, antibiotics, facial cleanliness and environmental improvements like access to clean water and sanitation.
Communicable diseases
This document defines communicable diseases and provides information on several specific diseases including chickenpox, measles, mumps, polio, pertussis, AIDS, dengue, tetanus, typhoid fever, cholera, and rabies. It describes the causative agents, signs and symptoms, treatment, nursing management, and prevention for each disease.
epidofmeasles-180920162327.pdf
Measles is a highly contagious viral infection that is transmitted through respiratory droplets. It causes a rash and fever and can lead to severe complications or death, especially in malnourished children. Before the widespread use of the measles vaccine in the 1960s, nearly all children contracted measles by age 10. Through vaccination campaigns and increased immunization rates, global measles deaths have declined significantly. However, ongoing efforts are still needed to achieve regional elimination goals and protect susceptible populations.
Epidemiology of measles
Measles is a highly contagious viral infection that is transmitted through respiratory droplets. It causes a rash and fever and can lead to severe complications without vaccination. Before widespread vaccination, measles killed millions of children globally each year. Two doses of the measles vaccine, usually combined in the MMR vaccine, are effective at preventing the disease and its complications. Public health efforts aim to achieve at least 90% vaccination coverage to eliminate measles through both routine immunization and supplemental catch-up campaigns.

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.share - Lions, tigers, AI and health misinformation, oh my!.pptx

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.

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
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.
