La fiche d'information sur le choléra de l'Organisation mondiale de la santé fournit des informations essentielles sur le choléra, une infection diarrhéique aiguë causée par l'ingestion d'aliments ou d'eau contaminés par la bactérie Vibrio cholerae. La maladie reste une menace mondiale pour ...la santé publique, en particulier dans les zones où l'accès à l'eau potable et à l'assainissement adéquat est insuffisant. Bien que de nombreuses personnes infectées présentent des symptômes légers ou inexistants, les cas graves peuvent entraîner une déshydratation rapide et la mort en l'absence de traitement. La prévention repose sur l'accès à une eau propre, un assainissement adéquat et de bonnes pratiques d'hygiène. Le traitement efficace consiste principalement en l'administration rapide de solutions de réhydratation orale. La fiche d'information met également en avant l'importance de la surveillance, de la préparation et des stratégies de réponse pour contrôler les épidémies.

The cholera poster provides essential information about the disease, including its symptoms, sources of infection, prevention measures, and treatment options. It describes cholera as a potentially fatal disease that spreads through contaminated food and water, particularly in emergency conditions. K...ey symptoms include severe diarrhea resembling "rice water," vomiting, leg cramps, weakness, and dehydration.
The poster emphasizes prevention strategies such as drinking only boiled or clean water, washing hands with soap, cooking food thoroughly, and maintaining hygiene when handling clothes and diapers. It also explains the importance of Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS), which can treat 80% of patients by preventing dehydration. ORS can be made at home using salt, sugar, and clean water. The poster highlights that cholera can quickly weaken a healthy person and even cause death within 24 hours if untreated.

This technical document consists of epidemiological profiles (fact-sheets) for States and districts based on information available from multiple data sources including the HIV Sentinel Surveillance (HSS) and the In...tegrated Biological and Behavioural Surveillance (IBBS). Given the need for focussed prevention efforts in low/high prevalence and vulnerable States/districts, the information presented will be useful for policy makers, program planners at national/State/ district level, researchers, and academicians in identification of areas for priority attention and also to derive meaningful conclusions for programme planning, implementation, monitoring and scale-up. This document will be a quick reference for the HIV/AIDS situation in a State/district, risk and safe behaviour of the high risk groups, their level of knowledge about STIs and HIV/AIDS, experience of violence, HIV testing and ART awareness and exposure to HIV/AIDS prevention.

Le mémoire porte sur la conception et la mise en œuvre d’une campagne de communication pour promouvoir la chimio-prévention du paludisme saisonnier (CPS) chez les enfants de 3 à 59 mois au Cameroun, une stratégie recommandée par l’OMS dans les zones de forte transmission saisonnière. L’...auteure part du constat que, malgré l’introduction de la CPS dans certaines régions camerounaises, sa mise en œuvre reste confrontée à une faible appropriation communautaire, à des résistances sociales et à un manque de communication adaptée.
L’objectif du travail est de concevoir une stratégie de communication sociale et comportementale visant à renforcer l’adhésion des communautés à cette intervention. Le mémoire s’appuie sur une analyse situationnelle approfondie, intégrant des données épidémiologiques, socioculturelles et communicationnelles. Il propose ensuite une campagne ciblée, articulée autour de messages clairs, de canaux adaptés (radios communautaires, agents de santé, leaders locaux) et de supports visuels compréhensibles.
La campagne vise à sensibiliser les parents, en particulier les mères, sur les avantages de la CPS, à corriger les fausses croyances, à encourager l’observance du traitement, et à renforcer la confiance envers les agents communautaires. Le document inclut un plan opérationnel, des outils de suivi-évaluation et une stratégie de pérennisation.
En conclusion, le mémoire souligne l’importance d’une communication contextualisée et participative pour améliorer la couverture et l’efficacité de la chimio-prévention du paludisme chez les enfants au Cameroun.

The prevalance of asthma an allergy, defined as immunologically mediated hypersensitivity, is increasing. It is estimated that over 20% of the world population suffers from IgE-mediated allergic disease, such as allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis, atopic eczema/atopic der...matitis, and anaphylaxis. Asthma, which in more than 50% of adults and in at least 80% of affected children is allergic, occurs in around 5-15% in the paediatric population. Asthma it estimated by the World Health Organization (WHO) to affect about 150 million people worldwide, placing an enormous strain on health resources in many countries, and is a major cause of hospitalizations for chronic diseases in children in the western wolrd.
Information may be derived from areas where a rapid increase in disease has occured, to from the basis for prevention strategies in areas where the prevalence of these diseases is still low. Where current expert opinion is still divided, where future research is required, or studies have provided negative results, the available information may prevent the implementation of unnecessary, restrictive, and costly avoidance strategies.

The WHO page addresses diarrhoeal diseases, one of the leading causes of death among children under five, which can be prevented through clean water, improved hygiene, and vaccinations. It emphasizes the importance of oral rehydration solutions (ORS) and zinc supplementation for treatment, as well a...s preventive measures like breastfeeding and handwashing. The WHO supports global strategies to reduce diarrhoea-related deaths through education and improved healthcare systems.
Including new recommendations for the use of ORS and zinc Supplementation for Clinic-Based Healthcare Workers.

Malaria in children presents significant clinical challenges, with variations in presentation based on the malaria parasite involved and the child's underlying health conditions. The World Health Organization reports high incidence rates, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, and emphasizes the import...ance of effective treatment strategies. First-line treatment often involves Artemether-Lumefantrine (ALu), while severe malaria requires careful management and the use of intravenous Quinine. Management protocols emphasize early diagnosis and the monitoring of severe complications to reduce mortality.

The document "Proteksyon Maladi" focuses on preventing waterborne and hygiene-related diseases through practical measures. It emphasizes the importance of personal hygiene, including washing hands with soap and clean water before eating, after using the toilet, and during food preparation. Maintaini...ng personal cleanliness is highlighted as a key step in preventing the spread of diseases.
Water safety is another critical focus, with recommendations to use treated or boiled water for drinking and cooking and to store water in clean, covered containers to prevent contamination. The document also addresses sanitation, encouraging the construction and maintenance of latrines to eliminate open defecation and promoting proper waste disposal to protect the environment and water sources.
Overall, the document serves as an educational resource, providing simple and effective strategies for communities to reduce the risk of diseases and improve public health through better hygiene, sanitation, and water safety practices.
