This practice is not always based on scientific evidence. IS have a modest effectiveness in preventing both recurrent wheezing, viral and bronchiolitis in children.\u0000The aim of the study is to monitor the use of IS with careful analysis of the risk / benefit factor of the treatment, through accuracy of diagnosis, the therapeutic appropriateness and the safe use of these medications.\u0000Methods: In this epidemiological / observational (case-study) and active observational project, the prescribing data for children (0-14 yrs) were collected and processed by Family Pediatricians (FPs). The activities have been divided into four sections:\u00001) Elaboration of the prescriptive data (year 2015-retrospective)\u00002) Training / information events for FPs and families on the correct use of IS (year 2016)\u00003) Elaboration of the prescriptive data of the same FPs after the training year (year 2017-prospective)\u00004) Comparison of the prescriptive data of IS in the age group of 0 - 14 years in the years 2015 and 2017 (before and after the training phase)\u0000Results: After the training phase: the prevalence of use of IS decreased from 20.71% to 15.15% ; the percentage of the appropriate prescriptions increased from 30.65% to 58.02% ; the percentage of the inappropriate prescriptions decreased from 68.67 % to 38.66%; the prevalence of inappropriate prescriptions decreased : a) in the 0-4 yrs from 70.24% to 39.30%; b) in the 5-10 yrs from 66.31% to 35.95%, and c) in the 11-14 yrs from 69.80% to 35.04%; the percentage of inappropriate expenditure decreased from 67.31% to 37.63%; the percentages of inappropriate prescriptions decreased for Beclomethasone from 71.47% to 38.29%, for Budesonide from 69.82% to 43.29%, for Fluticasone from 53.84% to 19.01% and for Flunisolide from 70.45% to 56.93% ; the total number of pieces prescribed decreased from 4.338 to 3.148.\u0000Conclusions: We have highlighted that through training courses for Family Pediatricians and a correct information to families a significant improvement in the use of Inhaled Steroids can be achieved. ","PeriodicalId":91713,"journal":{"name":"International journal of pediatrics and child health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46505941","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}

Kadam","doi":"10.12974/2311-8687.2016.04.02.3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.12974/2311-8687.2016.04.02.3","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Socioeconomic factors play an important role in predicting the health of people of a nation. Inequity in income and distribution of materials and services, and social exclusion make a nation hollow from within. Benefits of national facilities and supply do not reach many communities of uneducated and low-profile population. Recognition of social determinants of children’s health, and acting upon the issues through legislation and policies would promise to build a healthy nation with people of standard health.\u0000Method: Information has been collected from the literature available on social determinants and child health, and key challenging areas have been identified for opportunities of intervention.\u0000Result: Persistent poverty and lack of education pose significant negative impact in segregation and marginalization in society, schools and workplaces. Children of such underprivileged class are either deprived of food, education and parents’ care, or leave home for sheltering on street in quest of facilities for meeting their daily needs. In such inadequate circumstances, these children often become victims of violence, crime and abuse. Girls are trafficked and sold for prostitution. Though such children develop a strong survival spirit, their health is seriously affected by extremes of societal and environmental conditions.\u0000Conclusion: Improvement in income and education can control intergenerational inequity in life-course and professional achievements. Integration of social pediatrics for measuring the impact of social determinants, which is already prevalent in many developed countries, would be important to lower the extent of illness. This present report describes societal factors affecting children’s health in India, government policies conceived and their success-to-date in curbing the figures of child morbidity and mortality. ","PeriodicalId":91713,"journal":{"name":"International journal of pediatrics and child health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66337270","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}

The chi-square test was used to determine associated factors with mortality (p<0.05). Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier curves with primary outcome being death during hospital stay. Log rank test and Wilcoxon test were then applied to these curves. A multivariate analysis using the Cox Model was performed.\u0000Results: Overall mortality rate was 40.80%, 60.71% of which was attributed to early mortality and 39.29% to late mortality. Associated factors were gestational age (HR: 0.85; IC 95%: 0.18-0.90; p<0.0001), prenatal steroids (HR: 1.46; IC 95% 1.09-1.95; p< 0.011), neonatal resuscitation (HR: 1.50; IC 95% 1.06-2.13; p<0.021), early sepsis (HR: 1.52; IC 95%: 1.01-2.28; p<0.043), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) (HR: 8.47; IC 95%: 3.50-20.46; p<0.0001) and CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) (HR: 0.25; IC 95%: 0.18-0.34; p<0.0001). Factors associated with neonatal survival were gestational age, neonatal resuscitation, early sepsis, RDS and CPAP.\u0000Conclusion: Mortality in VLBW infants has declined considerably in this Peruvian hospital in the 2002-2011 period. The risk factor with the highest association to mortality in this population was RDS.","PeriodicalId":91713,"journal":{"name":"International journal of pediatrics and child health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66337324","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}
