  1. Initiatives for Strengthening Newborn Care

  2. EPIDEMIOLOGY • In India 26 million babies born every year & 9,40,000 babies dies before 1 month. • Neonatal period is of 28 days with current (2010) Neonatal mortality rate is 33/1000 live birth. • Neonatal mortality contributes to two third of all infant death (47/1000 live birth) & half of all under 5 death. • IMR in India steadily declined 58/1000 in 2004 to 47/1000 in 2010 but NMR declined from 37 in 2004 to 33 in 2010. • About 40% of neonatal deaths occur on the first day of life, almost half within three days and nearly three-fourth in the first week.

  3. Five year trends in in overall infant mortality rate & neonatal mortality

  4. Causes of neonatal & child mortality in India (nationally representative mortality survey lancet Million death study NOV2010)

  5. Distribution of newborn death in the first 4 weeks (ICMR STUDY)

  6. Wealth index & Neonatal mortality ( NFHS 3 ,2005-06)

  7. Comparison of wealth index with Neonatal & Post neonatal mortality

  8. Neo-natal mortality rates and percentage share of Neo-natal deaths to Infant deaths by residence, India and bigger States (SRS 2010 )

  9. Neonatal, Post neonatal & infant mortality rates , NFHS - 3 ,NFHS-2 and NFHS-1 India

  10. National goals for neonatal , infant & under 5 mortality

  11. Programme Milestone: • NPP programme launched in 1951 & the earliest child health initiative consisted of immunisation with Small Pox & BCG. • The EPI is started in 1978 to protect against six vaccine preventable diseases. • In 1980 primary health operationalize in Alma Ata declaration. the goal for Health for All by 2000 articulated , MCH goal to bring down IMR <60/1000 live birth, PMR 35 /1000 live birth. • The first NHP formulated in 1983. Universal immunisation programme (UIP ) launched in 1985-86 • CSSM launched in 1992. • RCH -1 in 1997. • RCH -2 in 2005.

  12. CSSM Program • Newborn health is recognised as priority in 1990. • Essential newborn care(ENC) introduced as a part of CSSM in 1992 at conclusion of UIP. • ENC Package: Resuscitation of asphyxiated newborn. Prevention of hypothermia & infection. Exclusive Breastfeeding. Referral of sick newborn.

  13. RCH PHASE 1 • On the recommendation of ICPD , RCH -1 launched in 1997. • RCH -1 programme integrate the SM & CS component of CSSM, but separate FP program & added RTI /STD intervention. The services are client centred, demand driven ,high quality & based on need of the community. • ENC is continued to be part of programme. • During implementation Govt of India approached NNF to operationalize district for newborn care.

  14. RCH PHASE 2 (2005-10) • RCH -2 launched in 2005. • Goal : to reduce NMR < 20 BY 2010. • CHILD HEALTH COMPONENT: Home Based Newborn Care: for the use of ASHA. In UP it is integrate with IMNCI for the training of ASHAs & ANM & named it comprehensive child survival programme. Pre service IMNCI: it is included in curriculums of medical college of country. IMNCI: it is the intervention under RCH-2 , to prevent & manage commonest childhood illness.

  15. RCH PHASE 2 (2005-10) CONTD.... • F-IMNCI: it is facility base care with IMNCI package, to empower the skill of health personnel. It focus on providing appropriate inpatient M/M of major causes of Neonatal & childhood mortality. • Sick new born care unit: to provide specialised services to sick new born. • As of JAN 2010 : 267 SNCU, 1,772 NBSU, 5892 NBCC are operational in the country.

  17. Continuum of care for Maternal & Newborn survival

  18. Objective of HBNC • Essential newborn care & prevention of complication.. • Early detection & special care of preterm & low birth weight newborn. • Early detection of illnesses in newborn babies & provision of appropriate care & referral. • Support of family to adopt healthy practices & build confidence & of the mother to safeguard her newborn.

Capacity building & support • ASHA is expected to acquire the skill listed in module 6& 7. • There will 4 rounds of training of 5 days each, all round expected to complete within 1 year ,there is gap of 10-12 week b/w each round. • Support : Rs 250 Paid for 6 home visit (3,7,14,21,28 &42), payment given on 45 days for following if : • Birth wt is recorded. • Ensuring birth registration • Both mother & child are safe till 42 days • Newborn is immunised for BCG, FIRST DOSE OF OPV & DPT COMPLETED & entered in the card .

  21. Skill needed by ASHA in provision of HBNC Detect sign symptoms of sepsis & prompt referral. Recognise postpartum complication. Use the check list for first visit to newborn. Immediate newborn care in case of home delivary • Mobilize the women for full ANC package. • Birth planning & preparedness. • Newborn care through series of home visit include skill for measuring weight, temperature, exclusive breastfeeding, warmth, hand washing promotion providing skin , eye & cord care.

Terminology • Newborn care corner (NBCC): is mandatory for all the health facility where delivery is conducted. • Newborn stabilization unit (NBSU): close to maternity ward where sick & LBW newborn kept for short period. All FRUs/CHC need to have a NBSU in addition to NBCC. • Special newborn care unit (SCNU): is a neonatal unit which provide special care to sick newborn. (all care except assisted ventilation & major surgery) • Any facility with more than 3000 delivery / year should have SNCU.

  25. Expected services provided at newborn facility:

  26. Expected services provided at newborn facility contd..:

  27. Cost of setting newborn care facility :

  28. Indication for admission to NBSU • Apnoea or gasping • Respiratory distress ( rate >70/min with severe retraction/ grant) • Hypothermia <35.4 c • Hyperthermia >37.5c • Central cyanosis • Shock (CFT >3 second) • Significant bleeding

  29. Criteria for admission to SNCU HYPOTERMIA Central cynosis Shock (CFT>3 Sec) Coma, convulsion, encephalopathy Abdominal distension Diarrhoea / dysentery Bleeding Major malformation • Birth weight <1800gm or gestation <34 weeks • Large baby(4.0kg) • Perinatal asphyxia • Apnoea or gasping • Refusal to feed • Respiratory distress (rate >60/min) • Severe jaundice

  30. Setting, Human resources & training for newborn care services

  31. Nawjaatshishusurakshakaryakaram is equips the staff with appropriate knowledge & skill to provide essential newborn care. NSSK addresses newborn resuscitation , prevention of hypothermia, infection & early initiation of breast feeding

  32. Facility based IMNCI(F-IMNCI) • it is recommended that All NBSU staff at FRUs is trained in F-IMNCI which includes “Facility base care of new born. • Is skill based training based on participatory approach combining classroom session with hand on clinical session.

  33. Facility Based Newborn Care : • All doctors & nurses posted in SNCU need to undergo a more intensive training programme , including observership at a recognised centre.

  34. Facility for newborn care in a district having one district hospital with more than 3000 delivery per year, 5 FRUs & twenty 24x 7 PHCs.
