Book Description
Introduction: Obstetric fistula is the presence of an opening between a woman’s genital tract and urinary tract or between the genital tract and the rectum due to untreated obstructed labor or iatrogenic causes. This disease is characterized by the leakage of the urine and/or stools through the vagina. Objective: The general objective of this need assessment is to contribute in decreasing the obstetric fistula related morbidity Nepal by providing strong information that could help in struggle against Obstetric Fistula related morbidity. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of 4 health sites in the Republic of Nepal between, November 1rst 2011 and December 16th 2011. Data were collected on the prevention, the management, the social reintegration, the training and the research related obstetric fistula. Standard assessment tool, structured questionnaire for health workers and patient’s interview were used. We have also performed a literature review on obstetric fistula in Nepal. Results: With the MMR of 281/100,000 live birth, it is estimated that there is 200 to 400 new cases of OF in Nepal each year leading to the overall 4300 prevalent cases. Our assessment shows that, obstetric fistula surgery is practiced in three sites with information verifiable on the registers and files. One fourth site is willing to be really involved in struggle against OF. None of the site is dealing with the five pillar of obstetric fistula. Two of three sites have OF surgery in permanent base while one site actually proceeds by camps. Even where surgery is practiced, there is still a need for training, nursing and surgical technical protocol related to obstetric fistula. Struggle against obstetric fistula is not really coordinated at the country and regional level. Conclusion and recommendations: We recommend elaborating a national strategy of struggle against the obstetric fistulas, to elaborate protocols for care, training tools; organize the struggle against obstetric fistula while founding on the five pillars that are the prevention, management, reintegration, training and operational research. While dealing with the national strategy, it is urgent to empower the facilities really involved in OF surgery and the one committed to start the program.

Book Description
Now in use at over 300 colleges and universities, Essentials of Global Health is the first comprehensive text designed for introductory, undergraduate global health courses at two and four year colleges, as well those enrolled in online learning and others new to the field. Essentials of Global Health is a clear, concise, and user-friendly introduction to the most critical issues in global health. It illustrates key themes with an extensive set of case studies, examples, and the latest evidence. While the book offers a global perspective, particular attention is given to the health-development link, to developing countries, and to the health needs of poor and disadvantaged people. Essentials of Global Health builds on the success of an introductory global health course taught by the author at the George Washington School of Public Health and Health Services. Essentials of Global Health is ideal suited for the the Association of American Colleges and Universities recommended course: Global Health 101. Richard Skolnik is the winner of numerous honors for teaching, has taught global health for 8 years, and has more than 30 years of experience as a global health practitioner in multilateral, university, and NGO settings. He has been actively involved in dealing with critical issues in global health at country level and at the highest levels of international health policy making. Learn more about the author. “Richard Skolnik's Essentials of Global Health is so comprehensive that it will be key reading in international health. In accessible language, he explains why good health is crucial to economic development, what indicators help track changes in global health, and requirements for good health systems. Approaches to solving world health problems must be under pinned by good ethics and human rights guidelines, he says, and local practices and cultures must not be ignored. Skolnik looks in detail at children's and women's health, and at the different challenges of tackling communicative and non-communicative disease in developing countries. He also maps out the key players in global health and looks ahead to future challenges.” —The Lancet, October 2007 The book is organized in four parts: - Principles, Measurements, and the Health-Development Link: The principles of Global Health; Health Determinants, Measurements, and Trends; and Health, Education, Poverty, and the Economy. - Cross-Cutting Global Health Themes: Human Rights, Ethics, and Global Health; An Introduction to Health Systems; and Culture and Health. - The Burden of Disease: The Environment and Health; Nutrition and Health; Women’s Health; Child Health; Infectious Diseases; Non-Communicable Diseases; and Unintentional Injuries. - Working Together to Improve Global Health: Conflicts, Natural Disasters, and Other Emergencies; Cooperating to Improve Global Health; and, Science Technology, and the Public’s Health.” Instructor Resources - Detailed Syllabus, updated each semester - Test

Book Description
The 2006 edition of UNICEF's annual report focuses on the millions of children who are most in need of access to essential education, health and protection services, but who are also the hardest to reach and often overlooked by current development programmes. These include children living in the poorest countries and most deprived communities within countries, children who face discrimination on the basis of gender, ethnicity or disability, children caught up in armed conflicts or affected by HIV/AIDS, children who lack a formal identity and who suffer from abuse and exploitation. The report examines the factors which result in their exclusion from current child development programmes and services, and highlights the policy options and actions required to address these challenges, in order to ensure all children benefit from the progress being made to achieve the Millennium Development Goals. Topics discussed include: income disparities and child survival, the marginalisation of Roma communities and their children, disability issues, children and HIV/AIDS, children living on the streets, early marriages, child labour, child protection and child rights.
