STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS SPECIFIC HEALTH PROBLEMS Communicable Disease Prevention and Control

Communicable Diseases Chronic Communicable Tuberculosis Leprosy (LCP) Vector-borne Communicable Diseases Malaria (MCP) Schistosomiasis (SCP) Filariasis (FCP) H-Fever (Dengue)

1. National Tuberculosis Control Program (NTBCP) Tuberculosis is a highly infectious, chronic respiratory disease caused by TB Bacilli. It is one of the 10 leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the Philippines, which is also known as Kochs Disease. Objective of the Program: To control TB by reducing the annual risk of infection (prevalence and mortality rates) Key Policies: Prevention BCG vaccination under the EPI Program Annual identification of at least 45% of its prevalence Public health education re: PTB mode of transmission, methods of control, and importance of early diagnosis Provide outreach services for home supervision of patients in Multi-Drug Therapy and also for preventive treatment of contacts Case Finding Direct sputum microscopy for identified TB symptomatics X-ray exam of TB symptomatics who are (-) after 2 or more sputum exam Establishment of passive and active collection points for sputum samples of all identified TB symptomatics, as well as validation centers to ensure the standard and quality of sputum exam Case finding and treatment services shall be made available in the BHS/RHUs Treatment All TB cases must be treated for free, on ambulatory and domiciliary (home) basis, except those with acute complications and emergencies All sputum positive and cavitary cases shall be given priority for short course chemotherapy or SCC for 6 mos. Standard Regimen or SR for a year or intermittent SCC for 6 mos. shall be given to all infiltrative but sputum negative.

SR: isoniazid and streptomycin sulfate SCC: Combo pack, Multi Drug Therapy

DOTS (Direct Observed Treatment Short Course) Regimen Regimen I 2RIPE / 4RI Regimen II 2RIPES/ 1RIPE / 5RIE Regimen III 2RIP / 4RI Type of TB Patient New pulmonary smear (+) cases New seriously ill pulmonary smear (-) cases w/ extensive lung lesions New severely ill extra-pulmo TB New pulmonary smear (+) case New seriously ill pulmonary smear (-) cases w/ extensive lung lesions New severely ill extra-pulmo TB New smear(-) but with minimal pulmonary TB on radiography as confirmed by a medical officer New extra-pulmo TB (not serious)

Health for More in 94 had Malakas na Baga, Malinaw na Mata as its strategy National Focus: TB Control Month laboratory and drug supplies were available to local governments in 1994 aimed to accelerate case finding and treatment Strategies done: Ensure that every microscopy and treatment center has the ff: Exnal microscope Microscopist trained within the last 3 years A 90% agreement rate in microscopy reading between the microscopist and validator Available NTP manual of procedures Drugs for at least 6 months supply Reagents, sputum cups for at least 6 months Utilization of an itinerant team composing of at least 2 microscopists, nurse, midwife, and a medical officer who will stay for 2 3 days in far flung communities to identify TB and start treatment

Self-administered dose 1. Lamprene 50 mg 2. Dapsone 100 mg Take OD, daily at home

Leprosy Patients must be taught ways to prevent secondary injury caused by burns and rough sharp objects Emphasize importance of sustained therapy, correct dosage, effects of drugs and the need for medical check-up from time to time Provide mental and emotional support to the families of leprosy patients Refer patients as needed

Rehabilitation: Imbibe patients participation in occupational activities Family and community health (PD 304) o non-segregation of leprosy patients o counseling and guidance

Local reaction, fever and systemic symptoms can result as part of the normal immune response Giving doses of vaccine at less than the recommended 4 weeks interval may lessen the antibody response. Lengthening the interval between doses of vaccines leads to higher antibody levels No extra doses must be given to children who missed a dose of DPT/HB/OPV/TT Strictly follow the principle of never, ever reconstituting the freeze dried vaccines in anything other than the diluents supplied with them Repeat BCG vaccination if the child does not develop a scar after the 1 st injection Use one syringe one needle per child during vaccination

Immunization Guidelines Dont be burden by the remarks of the mothers on the inconveniences of receiving 3-4 vaccines on the same day. Continue giving immunization according to the # of doses even if the interval exceeded by weeks, months or years. No contraindication in giving immunization moderate fever, cough and colds, diarrhea and malnutrition; not unless the child is assessed by the physician to be serious enough needing hospitalization. No BCG to child born positive to clinical AIDS. No food 30 min. after OPV; if the child vomits after receiving OPV, give additional drop. Contraindication of Vaccination

Acute Illness that needs hospitalization Fever of 38.5 degree Celsius and above Hypersensitivity to any of the vaccines Target Eligible population: 3 % (0.03 03 3/100) for children 5 % (0.035 03 3.5/100) for pregnant mothers Computation

EPIDEMIOLOGY Study of frequency of disease Study of distribution of disease or physiologic condition among human pop & the factors affecting such distribution. Distribution means the frequency of diseases & physiologic condition in terms of who gets sick where & when.

Basic Concepts: 1. Epidemiologic Triad: Agent- Host- env't 2. Transmission of CD: Common vehicle, source- serial- transfer- propagated from host to host 3. Incubation period: Entry of pathogens w/ enough infections load , up to appearance of the 1 st s/sx

Short term- fluctuations - Time of day - Days of the week b. Cyclic pattern- regular pattern Seasonal cyclicity annual cyclicity Secular cyclicity every other year typhoid, measles Patterns of Disease Occurrence: Epidemic A situation when there is a high incidence of new cases of a specific dse in excess of the expected. When the proportion of the susceptible are high compared to the proportion of the immunes. Ex. 20-30 diseases that you dont know Current number of cases exceeds the usual expectancy. Endemic Habitual presence of a disease in a given geographic location accounting for the low number of both immunes & susceptible. Causative factor is constantly available or present to the area Ex. Malaria, constant Sporadic Disease occurs every now & then affecting only a small number of people relative to the total pop Intermittent Page 3
