was 448 per one lakh persons while among non smokers it was 20 per one lakh persons. Calculate
the individual relative risk and population attributable risk. Comment on the results.
iii. Screening Test
1. 100 patients suspected of having pulmonary tuberculosis in the community were subjected for a
study. The technician collected and examined single sputum smear from these patients and reported

prevalence of the disease. The sputum was positive for AFB among 160 individuals with the disease
and 40 without the disease. Calculate the various parameters of the screening test & comment.
iv. Vaccine efficacy
1.A study was carried out to assess the effectiveness of a vaccine. There were 200 children vaccinated and
150 children unvaccinated. They were kept under fortnightly surveillance. Subsequently, there was an
outbreak of the disease for which the children had been vaccinated. The disease was reported among 50
vaccinated children and 50 unvaccinated children. Calculate the efficacy of vaccination and comment?
2.An outbreak of measles has occurred in a CHC area during the month of February 2007. There were 7780
children in the vulnerable age group of whom 64 came down with measles. The measles immunization
coverage of the area as assessed by the coverage evaluation survey was 80% .Among the children
vaccinated, 36 got measles. The remaining cases of measles occurred among unvaccinated children.
Calculate the efficacy of measles vaccination?
3. An outbreak of measles occurred in a CHC area. The measles immunization coverage of the area as
assessed by the coverage evaluation survey was 80% of the 9000 eligible children. Of the 300
measles cases reported in the outbreak, 15% gave history of measles immunization. Calculate the
vaccine efficacy rate and comment.

v. Vaccine Requirement
1. In a town with a population of 50000 the Crude Birth Rate is 30 and the Infant mortality rate is 80
for the year 2016. Calculate the annual vaccine requirement of BCG, TT, OPV, DPT, Measles for
the town.

2. In an area with the population of 75,000 the birth rate is 47 per 1000
population and the infant mortality rate is 130 per 1000 live births.
Calculate the following:

 The expected number of pregnant women and infants.


 Vaccine requirements for the TT, BCG, OPV, DPT and measles

NATIONAL PROGRAM:

HOW WILL YOU CONFIRM THE DIAGNOSIS

DISCUSSION:
 What do you understand by Epidemiological Transition?
 Modifiable and Non – modifiable factors for Hypertension
 How do you record Blood Pressure in an individual?
 A patient comes to you and find the BP to be 150 / 100 mmHg. He claims that this first
time his BP has been very high. He denies any stress at the time of measuring his BP.
What advice would you give to him
 Stages of Hypertension / Classify Hypertension according to JNC – 7
 Tracking of Blood Pressure and its importance
 Concept of Rule of Halves and its importance
 What is meant by Prudent Diet?
 What is meant by DASH plan? – It is “Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension”
 How frequently should you monitor Blood Pressure?
 What are the tests that should be done to a person diagnosed with Hypertension?
Once in 3 months – Renal Parameters, Blood Sugar, HbA1c (If diagnosed with DM)
Once in a Year – X – Ray Chest/ ECG, ECHO/ Doppler (Peripheral vascular assessment)
 Complications: Hemiplegia, TIA, Hypertensive Encephalopathy, Dissecting Aneurysms,
Retinal haemorrhages, Renal Failure, Myocardial infarction, Angina Pectoris, Heart
Failure, Cardiomyopathy

Levels of Prevention in Hypertension


Primary
 Nutritional Intervention
 Life style Modifications
 Weight Reduction
 Health Education
Secondary
 Early Diagnosis and Treatment
 Optimum Blood Pressure Control
 Maintenance of Optimal Body Weight
 Diet Restriction
 Self Care

 Blood Pressure Control – (Anti – hypertensives)
 Lipid Lowering agents
 Cardio – protective drugs (Aspirin)

ADVICE & CARE:


 INTERVENTION TO THE FAMILY – Look for similar case in the family and treat
them
 INTERVENTION TO THE COMMUNITY – Look for similar case in the community
and treat them

NATIONAL PROGRAM: - objective / strategies


DISCUSSION:
 Epidemiological Triad for DM
 WHO cut – off values
NORMAL DIABETES
Fasting Blood Sugar 100 mg / dl More than 126 mg / dl
2 hour Post prandial Blood Sugar 140 mg / dl More than 200 mg / dl

 Importance of HbA1c – to find out the glycemic control over the last 3 months as the life
span of RBC is about 120 days
 What are the tests that should be done to monitor the glycemic status?
Thrice in a day Blood Sugar (if the patient is STARTED on Insulin)
Once in Fortnight
Once in 3 months – Blood Sugar, HbA1c, Renal Parameters
Once in a Year – X – Ray Chest
ECG, ECHO
Fundal Examination
Doppler (Peripheral vascular assessment)
 Complications:
Microvascular Complications
 Diabetic Retinopathy, Diabetic Neuropathy, Diabetic Nephropathy
Macrovascular Complications: MI, Angina Pectoris, Cerebro vascular accidents
Systemic Complications: Diabetic Ketoacidosis

 What is hypoglycemic awareness?


 Levels of Prevention in DM
Primary
 Nutritional Intervention
 Life style Modifications
 Weight Reduction
 Health Education
Secondary
 Early Diagnosis and Treatment
 Optimum Blood Glucose Control – FBS, 2 hr PPBS, HbA1c
 Optimum Blood Pressure Control
 Maintenance of Optimal Body Weight,
 Diet Restriction
 Self Care
 Treatment – Compliance with Oral Hypoglycemic Agents / Insulin
Compliance with medications due to co – morbid illness
Teritary
 Disability Prevention and Rehabilitation

 National Program on Prevention and Control of Non – Communicable Diseases


Components
 Health promotion for general population
 Assessment of prevalence of risk factors
 Disease prevention for the high – risk groups

Levels of prevention Which level has How could it have been
failed? prevented?

Primary Health promotion

Specific protection

Secondary Early detection &

20. National Programme: RCH programme (to reduce maternal & child morbidity & mortality),
ICDS.
Note:
 Stages of normal labour:
Stage 1: onset of pain to full cervical dilatation 10 cm (primi 20 hours; multi 5 hours)
Stage 2: dilatation of cervix to delivery of baby (primi 1-2 hrs; multi 1 hr)
Stage 3: delivery of baby to delivery of placenta (10-15min)
 Monitor first stage of labour & maintain a partograph
- Partograph is a graphic representation of progress of labour with reference to
foetal heart, cervical dilatation, descent of head, uterine contraction &
maternal condition.
- It is used to identify signs of obstructed labour, signs of prolonged labour
early so as to give timely medical attention.
