Introduction
• Every year more than 10 million children die in developing
countries before they reach their fifth birthday.
• 7 in 10 of these deaths are due to five preventable and treatable
conditions.
Pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria, measles and malnutrition – and
often to a combination of these conditions.
• 3 out of 4 of these children suffer from one of these five
conditions.3
4
• Almost 19,000 children under 5 yrs of age, died everyday across the
world. 50% of it occurs in just five countries i.e. India, Nigeria,
Congo, Pakistan and China.
• In India, there are nearly 16.55 lakhs child deaths during 2011 and
we rank top among the countries with highest child mortality.
• India IMR-42/1000 live births. (46 – Rural, 28 - Urban) in 2012,which was 47 in 2010.
World IMR-35/1000 live births
• India PMR=32,NMR=33,U5MR=59 per 1000 live births.
• In INDIA- M.P. has the highest IMR followed byASSAM,ORISSA and UP.
MP=56,ASSAM=55,ORISSA and UP=53/1000 live births. 5
• Projections based on the 1996 analysis indicate that common childhood illnesses will continue to be major contributors to child deaths through the year 2020 unless greater efforts are made to control them.
• This assumption makes a strong case for introducing new strategies to significantly reduce child mortality and improve child health and development.
• WHO and UNICEF recognized the need to strengthen child-health activities in the country and decided to launch IMCI.
• The generic IMCI guidelines were adapted and the Indian version was named Integrated Management of Neonatal and Childhood Illness (IMNCI)-main intervention under RCH-II/NRHM ,that focuses on preventive,promotive and curative aspects of program.

Why Newborn in India1st Hour 1st Day 1st Week 1st Month
Reasons for the delay in assessment and accessibility of newborn to reach healthcare setting:
1.Starting of a problem
2. Delay in recognizing problem
3.Home based treatment
4.Delay in selecting health facility
5.Treatment from traditional advisors and village doctors
6.Delay in selecting formal health facility causing delay in treatment and increased cost
7.Increased chances of death of newborn.

What is IMNCI ?
• IMNCI is an integrated approach to child health that focuses on the
well-being of the whole child. IMNCI aims to reduce death, illness
and disability, and to promote improved growth and development
among children under five years of age.
• IMNCI includes both preventive and curative elements that are
implemented by families and communities as well as by health
facilities.
•The strategy includes three main components:
Improving case management skills of health-care staff
Improving overall health systems
Improving family and community health practices.

2 months to 5 years of age.)

Evidence-based, syndromic approach to case management includes rational, effective
and affordable use of drugs and diagnostic tools.
An evidence-based syndromic approach can be used to determine the:
• Health problem(s) the child may have.
• Severity of the child’s condition, and
• Actions that can be taken to care for the child (e.g. refer the child immediately,
manage with available resources, or manage at home).
In addition, IMNCI promotes:
•Adjustment of interventions to the capacity of the health system, and
•Active involvement of family members and the community in the health care process.
11
Guidelines for IMNCI
IMCI Process:
12
Principles of integrated care
• All sick young infants up to 2 months of age must be assessed for
“possible bacterial infection / jaundice”. Then they must be
routinely assessed for the major symptom “diarrhoea”.
• All sick children age 2 months up to 5 years must be examined for
“general danger signs” which indicate the need for immediate
referral or admission to a hospital. They must then be routinely
assessed for major symptoms: cough or difficult breathing,
diarrhoea, fever and ear problems.
• All sick young infants and children 2 months up to 5 years must
also be routinely assessed for nutritional and immunization status,
feeding problems, and other potential problems.13
Principles of integrated care
(Contd. .)
A combination of individual signs leads to a child's classification(s)
rather than diagnosis.
- needs urgent hospital referral or admission
( classifies as and colour coded pink)
- needs specific medical Rx or advice
(classified as and colour coded yellow)
- can be managed at home
(classified as and colour coded green)
14
Principles of integrated care
(Contd. .)
• IMNCI use a limited number of essential drugs and encourage
active participation of caretakers in the treatment.
• IMNCI address most, but not all, of the major reasons a sick child
is brought to a clinic.
• One of essential component of IMNCI is the counselling of
caretakers about home care,feeding,fluids and when to return to
health facility. 15
Goals of IMNCI
• Standardized case management of sick newborns and children
• Focus on the most common causes of mortality
• Nutrition assessment and counselling for all sick infants and children
• Home care for newborns to
– promote exclusive breastfeeding
– prevent hypothermia
– improve illness recognition & timely care seeking
16
Elements of case management
process
• Assess - Child by checking for danger signs by history and
examination.
• Classify - Child's illness by color coded triage system.
• Identify - Specific treatments.
• Treatments- Instructions of oral drugs, feeding & fluids.
• Counsel - Mother about breast feeding & about her own health as
well as to follow further instructions on further child care.
• Follow up care - Reassess the child for new problems.17
The CASE MANAGEMENT PROCESS Is Used To
Assess And Classify Two Age Groups
Management Of The Young Infant Age Up To 2
Months Is Presented On Two Charts
Assess and classify the sick young infant age up to 2 months.
Treat the young infant and counsel the mother.

with added component of:
1. Asphyxia Management and

included under IMNCI
• Majority of the health facilities (24x7 PHCs, FRUs, CHCs and District
hospitals) do not have trained paediatricians to provide specialized care to the
referred sick newborns and children, the F-IMNCI training will therefore help in
skill building of the medical officers and staff nurses posted in these health
facilities to provide this care.67

• Improvements to the health system : Logistics/Manpower/ Referral mechanisms
• Improvement of Family and Community Practices

Implementation Of IMNCI In Uttar
Pradesh
• Uttar Pradesh runs a Comprehensive Child Survival Project(CCSP) where the
IMNCI training module has been expanded to include birth preparedness and
essential care at birth.
• IMR =53(2013) as compared to 57(2011)
• NMR=42(2013) as compared to 47(2011)
• U5MR=90(2013) as compared to 92(2011)
• MMR= 359(2012).
• Involvement of CCSP has really brought down the mortality rates, still the
expansion is required to meet the target.
74
Components of CCSP
four components:
1. IMNCI
2. ANC(ante-natal care)
3. HBNBC(home based new born care)
4. BCC(behavior change communication)
