Section 1
General Principles for Management
of Sick Children
Section Objectives
• State the causes of under 5 mortality in Nepal
• Describe the linkage of CB-IMNCI with FB-IMNCI
Programme
• Describe the management process of sick children
referred to hospital
• Describe various concepts of effective communication
skills and counseling
• Demonstrate effective communication skills while
counseling
• Describe the infection prevention measures involved in
care of newborn and children
Under five mortality
• Every year more than 10 million children die in
developing countries before they reach their fifth
birthday.
• In Nepal, the under-five mortality rate is 39 per
1000 live births. (NDHS 2016)
• Majority of these deaths occur within the
neonatal period.
• The neonatal mortality rate is 21 per 1000 live
births and infant mortality rate is 32 per 1000 live
births.
Under five mortality
• Though Nepal met its Millennium Development
Goal target of reducing under-5 mortality to 54
deaths per 1,000 live births by 2015, it has a long
way to go to meet the Sustainable Development
Goal target of reducing under-five mortality to 28
deaths per 1,000 live births.
• More challenging is the goal of reducing neonatal
mortality rate below 12 per 1000 live births.
Under five mortality
• The most common causes of infant and
child mortality in developing countries
including Nepal are perinatal conditions,
pneumonia, diarrhoea, malaria, measles and
malnutrition
• Many of these deaths may be prevented by
early referral of sick children to health facility
and providing appropriate treatment.

Safe transport of sick children
Introduction
• Important part of overall care of a child
• Constraints
– Facilities are scarce and not easily available
– Families have poor resources
– Organized transport services are not available. At times the
baby may have to be transported on foot or on bullock
cart.
– No health provider is available to accompany the baby
– Facilities are not fully geared up to receive sick neonates
– Communication systems are non-existent or inefficient
Preparation before transport
1. Assess and stabilize
Utmost important
If unstable, deteriorate on way
a. Temperature
b. Airway- position neck, suction secretions,
check for chest movements
c. Breathing- Tactile stimulation, BMV
Preparation before transport
1. Assess and stabilise
d. Circulation- Fluid boluses, dopamine if
needed
e. Fluids- Maintenance, replace ongoing loss
f. Medications- Antibiotics, anticonvulsants, Vit
K in newborn
g. Feeding
Breastfeeding, cup or gavages
If not able to feed, then only give IVF
Preparation before transport
2. Write a note
a. Details of baby’s condition
b. Need for referral
c. Treatment given to the baby
3. Encourage mother to accompany
4. Arrange a provider to accompany
Doctor/ nurse/ health worker
5. Communication
a. Explain the condition, prognosis, reasons for
referral
b. Explain where to go and indicate whom to
contact
c. Inform the referral facility beforehand if possible
Care during transport
1. Stabilise prior to transfer
2. Maintenance of warm chain
a) KMC
b) Properly covered in cloth
c) Transport incubator
3. Prevention of hypoglycemia
a) Breastfed if able to suck
b) Spoon fed/ NG tube if not able to suck
c) If not able to feed, intravenous fluid
Care during transport
4. Maintenance of airway and breathing
a. Keep the neck of the baby in slight extension
b. Do not cover baby’s mouth and nose
c. Wipe secretions from nose and mouth with
cotton or cloth covered finger
d. Check breathing- Watch breathing,, tactile
stimulation or BMV
5. Educate parents about danger sign while
transport

Communication skills and
counselling
Introduction
• Techniques you can use to show the mother
or family that you care and respect them and
that you want to help
• Also involve body language, every gesture or
action you make should be culturally
appropriate.

health problems and can make good decisions about care
2. Not being judgmental
Never blame a mother/caregiver for the baby’s problem, cultural
practices, or past decisions she has made.
3. Speaking clearly and using words the mother understands
Communication should be understood by both the health worker
and the mother.
If possible, speak with the woman in the language with which she
is most comfortable.

Infection Prevention
Introduction
• Leading cause of death in neonates and
children
• Every hospital should have written policies of
infection prevention
• Prevention of infection is more cost effective
than treating infection
Sources of infection
• Touching
– Touching an object that is dirty or contaminated
spreads germs and contaminates the hands.
• Blood and body secretion
– By a mother to her baby during pregnancy, birth,
or with breastfeeding.
– By contact with blood or amniotic fluid from an
infected person.
Sources of infection
• Air
– Infectious germs coughed into the air by an
infected person and passed to others who breathe
in the air.
• Food and water
– Contaminated food and water (bottle feeding)
Common precautions
• Follow universal precautions
• Consider every person as potentially infectious
• Wash hand and wear gloves before every
procedure
• Wear protective clothing
• Use aseptic technique
• Protect yourself from blood and other body
fluids during deliveries and procedures
Common precautions
• Practice safe waste disposal
• Prevent injuries with sharps
• Use clean clothes
• Keep the newborn unit/patient care room clean
• Isolate babies with infection to prevent
nosocomial infections
• Keep separate spirit and povidone iodine swab
containers, stethoscope, measuring tape and
thermometer for each baby
Common precautions
• Change IV set daily (as per feasibility)
• Use syringe, suction catheter once only
• Feeding tubes can be left alone as long as baby
can keep (maximum upto 7 days)
• Do not keep fomites on the baby cot
• Change the solution in suction bottles and sterile
water in oxygen chamber every day and sterilize
the bottle daily by dipping in 2% gluteraldehyde
for 4-6 hrs
Common precautions
• Do not use a single dextrose/saline bottle for >24
hours.
• There should be a separate IV fluid bottle for
each baby.
• Label the bottle with date and time of opening.
• Use syrup within 1 week of opening.
• Antibiotics vials to be changed after 24 hours.
• Use separate IV set for giving antibiotics.
Requirements for infection prevention
• Running water supply
• Soap
• Elbow or foot operated taps
• Strict hand washing practice
• Adequate amount of disposables such as;
sterile gloves, needle and syringe
Requirements for infection prevention
• Disinfectant/antiseptic solutions.
• Instrument decontamination with 0.5%
chlorine solution (virex) for 10 minutes
• Strict adherence to asepsis routines and good
housekeeping.
• Rational use of antibiotics.
Handwashing
Introduction
• 2 minutes before entering the unit
• 20 seconds before and after touching babies
Indications
• Before and after caring/touching for newborn and
before any treatment procedure. (You can use hand
sanitizer if below indications are not present. Follow
the same steps as handwashing)
• Whenever hands (or any other skin area) are
contaminated with blood or other body fluids
• After removing gloves, because they may have holes
• After changing soiled napkins or clothing
• Keep nails short and do not apply nail polish
Handwashing
Palm to palm right palm over left and vice versa
Palm to palm, finger interlaced Back of fingers to opposing finger interlocked
Rotational rubbing of Rt thumb Rotational rubbing of tips of
clasped in left palm right fingers and thumb over left palm and vice versa
Handwashing
• See Checklist 1.3( Page 8 of participants
workbook)
Wearing sterile gloves
Indication
• Receiving baby at delivery
• Cutting cord and applying 4% chlorhexidine gel
• Eye care
• Invasive procedure
– Blood sampling
– Venous cannulation
– Urethral catheterization for urine collection
– Starting IV lines and giving IV/IM injections
– Giving skin, umbilical or eye care when infected
Wearing sterile gloves
Wearing sterile gloves
• See checklist 1.4( Page 9 of participants
workbook)
Other infection prevention measures
• Skin preparation
• Safe disposal of waste
• Terminal Disinfection
• Methods of cleaning different equipment
( Table 1.2)

Session 1 FBIMNCI.pptx

  • 1. Section 1 General Principles for Management of Sick Children
  • 2. Section Objectives • State the causes of under 5 mortality in Nepal • Describe the linkage of CB-IMNCI with FB-IMNCI Programme • Describe the management process of sick children referred to hospital • Describe various concepts of effective communication skills and counseling • Demonstrate effective communication skills while counseling • Describe the infection prevention measures involved in care of newborn and children
  • 3. Under five mortality • Every year more than 10 million children die in developing countries before they reach their fifth birthday. • In Nepal, the under-five mortality rate is 39 per 1000 live births. (NDHS 2016) • Majority of these deaths occur within the neonatal period. • The neonatal mortality rate is 21 per 1000 live births and infant mortality rate is 32 per 1000 live births.
  • 4. Under five mortality • Though Nepal met its Millennium Development Goal target of reducing under-5 mortality to 54 deaths per 1,000 live births by 2015, it has a long way to go to meet the Sustainable Development Goal target of reducing under-five mortality to 28 deaths per 1,000 live births. • More challenging is the goal of reducing neonatal mortality rate below 12 per 1000 live births.
  • 5. Under five mortality • The most common causes of infant and child mortality in developing countries including Nepal are perinatal conditions, pneumonia, diarrhoea, malaria, measles and malnutrition • Many of these deaths may be prevented by early referral of sick children to health facility and providing appropriate treatment.
  • 6. Child mortality in Nepal • Causes of under five mortality Prematurity 30% Sepsisand other infectious conditions of the newborn 7% Birthasphyxia and birthtrauma 11% Congenital anomalies 4% Acutelower respiratory infections 15% Diarrhoealdiseases 6% Other communicable, peri natal and nutritional conditions 8% Otherdiseases (Meningitis, injuries ,pertusis, measles, non-communicable diseases) 19%

  • 16. Safe transport of sick children
  • 17. Introduction • Important part of overall care of a child • Constraints – Facilities are scarce and not easily available – Families have poor resources – Organized transport services are not available. At times the baby may have to be transported on foot or on bullock cart. – No health provider is available to accompany the baby – Facilities are not fully geared up to receive sick neonates – Communication systems are non-existent or inefficient
  • 18. Preparation before transport 1. Assess and stabilize Utmost important If unstable, deteriorate on way a. Temperature b. Airway- position neck, suction secretions, check for chest movements c. Breathing- Tactile stimulation, BMV
  • 19. Preparation before transport 1. Assess and stabilise d. Circulation- Fluid boluses, dopamine if needed e. Fluids- Maintenance, replace ongoing loss f. Medications- Antibiotics, anticonvulsants, Vit K in newborn g. Feeding Breastfeeding, cup or gavages If not able to feed, then only give IVF

Respecting the mother’s right to make decisions about her own health care and that of her baby It is your responsibility to give the woman all the information she needs to make a decision, not to make the decision for her 8. Listening to what the mother has to say Give her enough time to tell you what she thinks is important.
  • 32. Types of information to be provided during hospitalization • Communication begins right at the time of admission of the child to the hospital till the time child is discharged or referred to higher center and during follow up visit. • Information must be provided • The reasons for admission • Initial diagnosis of the patient at the time of admission • Outline management plan
