Globally, about 314 million people are visually impaired while 45 million of them are blind with 87% of the visually impaired living in the developing countries. The global target of WHO in Vision 2020 which is the “right to sight initiative” is ultimately to reduce blindness prevalence to less than 0.5% in all countries or less than 1% in any community. This study was aimed to find out the prevalence of glaucoma in Nigeria from 1998-2006. The National Eye Centre Kaduna, Nigeria, a collaborating centre of WHO in the prevention of blindness on patients who presented to the hospital with the condition from 1998-2006 was used for the study. The instruments used during the course of this research work for data collection were the primary source which was directly from ward register, primary health care clinic and registers from consulting clinics obtained from the medical record department. A total of 7573 patients were used for the purpose of the study. Out of this total, 4876 patients were male representing 63% while 2789 patients were female representing 37%. Age distribution showed that the prevalence of Glaucoma is higher between ages 40 years and above with 3202 patients representing 43% followed by age 3140 with 2792 patients representing 37%. The yearly distribution of glaucoma was 330 patients in 1998 representing 4% and 1680 patients representing 23% in 2006 indicating an increase in the prevalence of Glaucoma.","PeriodicalId":247354,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Epidemiology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130669572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several socio-cultural and economic factors interplay in the decision for place of delivery. Objective: To know the pattern of deliveries and related factors for appropriate advocacy and interventions. Material and Methods: Community based crosssectional study was conducted in 2007-08 in a Rural Block of District Jhajjar, Haryana. Assuming 50% institutional deliveries, at 95% confidence level with 10% allowable error; the calculated sample size was 400 deliveries. Sampling frames of all eligible women, who delivered within last 12 months, were prepared separately for all five sectors in the study block. 80 mothers were selected randomly from each sector. Absentees after three visits were replaced by next mothers in the frame. Required data were collected on pretested semi-structured schedules from study mothers by house-to-house visits and analyzed using SPSS (version10.0). Results: 227(56.7%) mothers had institutional deliveries. Among home deliveries 173(43.3%), attending personnel were: 30(17%) untrained dais, 103(59%) trained dais; 19% health personnel and 5% others. Illiteracy, poverty, no accompanying person, lower castes, inadequate antenatal check-ups, previous home delivery etc. were significantly associated with home deliveries. 50% mothers considered that institutional deliveries were not necessary. Discussion: Addressing socioeconomic constraints, creating awareness regarding importance of institutional deliveries, identifying and motivating mothers, who are likely to have home deliveries, for institutional deliveries through quality antenatal services appeared vital for ensuring deliveries in institutions.","PeriodicalId":247354,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Epidemiology","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116524795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Study Design: Cross-sectional. Setting: Govt. Senior Secondary Schools of Block Lakhanmajra. Participants: 1265 school children (6-15 years). Methodology: Out of 16 Govt. Senior Secondary Schools, 4 were randomly chosen. Students aged 6-15 years studying in class 1 to 10 were included in the study. Visual Acuity (VA) test was performed using Snellen's E chart. The finding of clinical examination was recorded on a pretested Performa and were analysed. Statistical Analysis: percentages, Chisquare test and Fisher's exact test. Result: Out of 1265, 172 children (13.6 %) were found to have defective vision (\"d6/9). Myopia affected only one eye in 22(1.74%) students while both eyes were affected in 131(10.36%) students. Hyperopia affected one eye only in 2(0.16%) students while in 17(1.34%) students both eyes were affected. The prevalence of myopia, hyperopia & astigmatism was more in girls (23.7%) as compared to boys (12.2%). The prevalence of myopia & astigmatism was more in higher age groups and the prevalence of hyperopia was more in lower age groups. Conclusion: Refractive errors can have a long term impact on the learning abilities of school children and visual screening by trained teachers can play an important role in early detection and prevention of further complications.","PeriodicalId":247354,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Epidemiology","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133293988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
