How does WHO's Strategy Address Neonatal Disorders?
WHO's strategy focuses on several key areas to tackle neonatal disorders:
Antenatal Care: Ensuring that pregnant women have access to quality antenatal care to monitor and manage potential complications. Skilled Birth Attendance: Promoting the presence of skilled health professionals during childbirth to handle emergencies such as birth asphyxia and neonatal resuscitation. Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs): Strengthening NICUs to provide specialized care for preterm and low birth weight infants. Postnatal Care: Ensuring follow-up care for newborns to detect and treat conditions like infections and jaundice early. Immunization: Promoting vaccination against diseases like Hepatitis B and Tuberculosis to prevent neonatal infections.
