Abstract:
Transport of critically ill children is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality in developing countries due to the lack of adequate resources and skilled personnel. Transport of the sick child remains a major challenge in Nepal as well. The main objective of this article is to describe the importance of safe transport, and be a resource and guide for health care personnel during inter-facility transport of sick children in Nepal. This guideline is based on consensus statement of Nepal Pediatric Critical Care Working Group (NPCCWG) under the aegis of the Nepal Pediatric Society (NEPAS). It includes different components of transport, namely essential equipment, patient preparation, communications, medications, and transport checklist, that are required during transport of sick children, taking into consideration the current resources available in our health care facilities.

Abstract:
Background: Approximately 1.4 million or 13% of all children who die each year could be prevented with widely-available vaccines. Objective: We examined if women’s empowerment improved child immunization using data on 1,056 mothers with young children from Nepal. Methods: The study utilized the 2006 Nepal Demographic and Health Survey, a nationally-representative sample of 10,793 women from 8,707 households across Nepal. We selected all mothers with first child between the ages of 12 and 23 months at the time of interview. This resulted in a sample of 1,056 mothers. Results: Among the measures of women’s empowerment, mothers’ education was significantly associated with child immunization. The odds of being fully immunized for children of mothers with secondary education were 5.91 times the odds for children of mothers without any formal education. Other measures of women’s empowerment – women’s age at birth of first child, gap in age between spouses, women’s knowledge about sexually-transmitted diseases, their role in intra-household financial, health and mobility decisions, and their perceptions toward wife beating – were not associated with child immunization. Among control variables, mothers who received antenatal care were 3.31 times as likely to immunize their children as mothers who did not receive any antenatal care. Other such barriers to health service use such as cost of care, distance to health services, and quality of health services were not significant. Conclusions: To improve child immunization, Nepal should strengthen its antenatal care services. Additionally, over 56% of mothers in Nepal had no formal education; to improve child health in the long run, the country should focus on education of women and girls.

Abstract:
The proper use of antenatal care (ANC) visit is the first step to prevent both mother and child health. This is also one of the key components to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. The study is an attempt to assess the relation between mother’s education and utilization of ANC services in Nepal. It is completely based on data of national representative 2016 Nepal Demographic and Health Survey that covered 2,746 currently married women, aged 15-49 years who had at least one child in the last three years preceding the survey. Logistic regression was used to analyze the effect of education on the utilization of ANC services. Results showed that a higher level of maternal education increased the chance of utilizing ANC services than those with little or no education. The importance of maternal education continued even when other socioeconomic factors are taken into account. This indicates that mother’s education contribute to increase the use of proper ANC services.

Abstract:
This study explores the factors associated with neonatal mortality and maternal health care in Nepal. The subjects were 4375 births reported in the 1996 Nepal Family Health Survey. Maternal and child health care was found to have a significant association with neonatal mortality, although preceding birth interval and sex of child had stronger effects. Four aspects of maternal care were found to be highly associated with region, household ownership of assets, mother’s education and father’s education. This indicates that accessibility, affordability and availability of maternal health care are important factors to consider in future research on neonatal mortality.

Abstract:
Nepal has performed exceptionally in improving reproductive, maternal and child health outcomes over the past two decades. In this article, we discuss these achievements and outline a vision for the future of maternal, newborn and child survival in Nepal after the era of the Millennium Development Goals. On the pathway towards quality universal health care services for all, we propose strengthening of health information systems, gradual health system reforms, improvement of existing facility based services, development of integrated service delivery models, improved technical and managerial capacity at district and facility levels. Elimination of all preventable causes of maternal, newborn and child deaths in Nepal should be our collective aspirational goal.

Abstract:
Introductions: Child health indicators of under-five and infant mortality has improved in Nepal, but neonatal mortality remains high. The aim of this study is to assess neonatal care practices among mothers in rural Nepal.Methods: A household survey was conducted in the village of Daman in Makwanpur district, Nepal. All households that had an infant less than one year of age, and had been residing in Daman for greater than six months were included in the study.Results: There were 117 mothers with neonate assessed. The average age of mothers was 24 years and 39 (33.3%) were illiterate, 53 (45.3%) were home births and 36 (30.8%) births were registered. Ninety seven (82.9%) neonates cried immediately after birth, 95 (81.1%) used a new or boiled blade for umbilical cord, 20 (16.7%) applied oil to the cord stump and 71 (61%) breastfed within first hour of birth. There was a significant relationship between non-exclusive breastfeeding and sickness.Conclusions: In Daman village community awareness for umbilical cord care and breastfeeding after birth was high. For thermal regulation of the infant, more health education is required.Journal of Patan Academy of Health Sciences, Vol. 2, No. 2, 2015. page: 23-27

Abstract:
The antenatal care is an entry point for maternal and child health care service utilization through which pregnancy risk can be detected and managed and contributes to reducing both the maternal and neonatal mortality. This study is an attempt to identify the factors affecting on the utilization of antenatal care in Nepal. It is based on data of Nepal Demographic and Health Survey (2016) that covered 3,998 currently married women, aged 15-49 years who had a live birth in the 5 years preceding the survey. In this study, ANC visit is dependent variables is defined by women who attend ANC as 4 or more visits and the women who attend ANC as less than 4 times visits. Information on socio-demography characteristics and the utilization of antenatal care (ANC) visits are collected. Findings of this study show that different demographic, socio-economic factors are responsible for the utilization of antenatal care services in Nepal. Despite the need and the efforts made by the government of Nepal through different policies to improve access to antenatal care service, complete ANC utilization has been inadequate.

Abstract:
Background: Delivery of the maternal and child health services are generally affected during the time of disaster. This study aims to assess the maternal and child health service utilization in areas in Nepal affected by the 2015 earthquake.Methods: A mixed method study was carried in 29 Village Development Committees from nine earthquake-affected districts in Nepal. Quantitative data on maternal, neonatal and child health indicators before and after the earthquake were collected from the Health Management Information System. Focus group discussions and key informant interviews with different stakeholders were conducted to collect qualitative data. Quantitative data was analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2013. Qualitative data was analyzed manually using thematic analysis technique.Results: Most of the indicators were comparable before and after the earthquake. Indicators such as Bacille Calmette-Guerin vs. Measles-Rubella vaccine drop-out rate, 1st antenatal care visit, delivery by skilled birth attendant and 1st postnatal care visit within 24 hours of delivery improved after the earthquake. Though most of the health facilities were damaged, health services resumed under tents or in open spaces. Some of the common problems among pregnant women included stomachache, headache, malnutrition, diarrhea, and mental stress. Conclusions: There was not much effect in the delivery of maternal neonatal and child health services. This reflects the coordinated efforts from government as well as non-government organizations and civil societies during and after the earthquake in Nepal. Keywords: Earthquake; maternal and child health; Nepal; service delivery; service utilization.

Abstract:
Background: Nepal has made a significant progress in reducing child mortality. However, the annual rate of reduction in neonatal mortality is not satisfactory. As safeguarded by constitution of Nepal and to address neonatal mortality due to poverty and inequity, government has introduced free newborn care (FNC) package. This study aims to assess the status of FNC services in all the public hospitals.Methods: Child Health Division organized 5 workshops region-wise with the theme of newborn care services in March/April 2018 to cover all the public hospitals in the country. A template was designed comprising of duration of FNC implementation, number of newborns admitted since implementation, morbidities pattern, and number of babies served. It was circulated and all hospitals were advised to fill it and present in the review. Later, the data were compiled and analyzed.Results: Only 58 presentations out of 93 participated hospitals were included in this study. The total admitted cases were 8564 newborns. The common causes of admission were neonatal sepsis (44.5%) followed by asphyxia (14.29%) and hyperbilirubinemia (11.4%). A total of 1573 neonates received services of FNC package C, 3722 package B, 3081 received package A. The main challenges faced in implementation reported were lack of infrastructure and human resources to provide services and the reimbursement is not enough.Conclusions: Free newborn care is a new initiative taken to reduce neonatal mortality. This package is very helpful to serve sick newborns. However, the package should be revised taking into consideration the appropriate reimbursement and extra staffs to provide this service.Keywords: Free newborn care; government efforts; health services.

Abstract:
Abstract Having explored regulatory pragmatism and the relationship between legal knowledge and compliance in the context of conservation in Chapter 6, this chapter turns to two shadow cases, one involving compliance with teacher-student ratio regulations and the other involving child labor in brick kilns. Each is explored in the same border region in which the conservation case is situated. In the schools case, it was India, not Nepal, that employed a strategy consistent with regulatory pragmatism: the Right to Education Act, which gave parents a mechanism by which to exert pressure on schools. Consistent with expectations developed in the conservation case, it was also India that realized more widespread accurate legal knowledge among school administrators and higher rates of observed compliance. In the brick kilns case, neither India nor Nepal employed a strategy consistent with regulatory pragmatism to reduce child labor, and both countries saw comparatively similar legal knowledge and compliance rates.

Abstract This chapter takes a deep dive into the choice to focus on compliance along the India-Nepal border. The modern-day border area is described in detail and both qualitative and quantitative data provide evidence to support the border design; there is also information on historic border delineation. After exploring and justifying case selection, the chapter turns to key variables associated with the conservation case (compliance with wood-collection prohibitions in Chitwan and Valmiki National Parks), including compliance, accurate legal knowledge, delegated enforcement, information dissemination by local leaders, and poverty-driven non-compliance, as well as the measurement of these variables and associated hypotheses. The chapter then turns to the shadow cases, which examine compliance with teacher-student ratio and child labor regulations in the India-Nepal border area. Finally, details are provided on the data and methodology associated with data collection.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter, as with Chapter 3, provides considerable detail regarding the India-Nepal border region, but its main focus is on descriptive statistics associated with the conservation, education, and brick kilns (child labor) cases. The data provided for all cases include everything from respondent numbers and locations, to gender, land and business ownership, age, education status, income levels, etc. Case-specific data focus range widely but focus, for instance, on need for wood use, place of origin for staff at brick kilns, staff in schools, and teacher-student ratios. More data are included than is strictly necessary for the book’s argument. This was done, at least in part, as a public service, since this is an understudied region.

Abstract:
This chapter will setup a temporal contrast for twenty-first-century tendencies by reaching further into a generalized past, beginning with folklore and traditions of child a bandonment and adoption, to connect and compare them with familiar modern parallels like baby boxes and foster care, reflected more lightly in 1920s comic-strips like Frank King's Gasoline Alley (1918-1959), Elzie Segar's Thimble Theatre (1919-1938), and Harold Gray's Little Orphan Annie (1924-1968). Woven in with "real world" examples will be representations from popular narratives like Pullman's Golden Compass (1995) and Neal Shusterman's Unwind (2007). This chapter should setup recognition of ways in which participation was actually greater forsome children before industrialization peaked, revealing through contrast adominant modern motif of child containment.

Abstract:
This guidance note explains how policymakers and practitioners can more effectively integrate children with disabilities into mainstream education and give them the individualized support they need. COVID-19 has exacerbated the situation for marginalized children with disabilities who make up around 5% of the global child population but encompass over half of those excluded from schools. Drawing on case studies from the Kyrgyz Republic, the Marshall Islands, and Nepal, this publication shows how adopting a holistic stance and building multistakeholder partnerships can help ensure children with disabilities receive an inclusive, quality education.
