Effectiveness of a structured teaching program for the improvement of knowledge regarding ethics on health research among members of selected Institutional Review Committees in Nepal
Members of the Institutional Review Committees (IRCs) were interested in training to effectively carry out their responsibilities to review research proposals for ethical considerations. Thus, an independent educational program was planned to enhance their knowledge of research ethics and familiarize them with ethical research procedures and run the IRC. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the educational intervention on knowledge …
Evaluating preschool linear growth velocities
Objective: An annualised linear growth velocity (LGV) reference can identify groups of children at risk of growing poorly. As a single velocity reference for all preschool ages does not exist, we present an interim tool, derived from published, normative growth studies, for detecting growth faltering, illustrating its use in Nepali preschoolers. Design: The WHO Child Growth Velocity Standard was adapted to derive 12-month increments and conjoined…
Designing programs to improve diets for maternal and child health
Improving maternal and child nutrition in resource-poor settings requires effective use of limited resources, but priority-setting is constrained by limited information about program costs and impacts, especially for interventions designed to improve diet quality. This study utilized a mixed methods approach to identify, describe and estimate the potential costs and impacts on child dietary intake of 12 nutrition-sensitive programs in Ethiopia, N…
Stunting in Nepal
Nepal has made impressive gains in health and nutrition despite being in a state of political, economic and demographic transition. According to the Nepal Demographic Health Surveys, stunting in Nepal has fallen from 57% in 2001 to 41% in 2011, an annual decline of 1.7 percentage points. A 3.9% annual reduction is, however, required to achieve the global target of 40% fewer stunted children by 2025. The Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey conducted…
Newborn survival in Nepal
Nepal is on target to meet the Millennium Development Goals for maternal and child health despite high levels of poverty, poor infrastructure, difficult terrain and recent conflict. Each year, nearly 35,000 Nepali children die before their fifth birthday, with almost two-thirds of these deaths occurring in the first month of life, the neonatal period. As part of a multi-country analysis, we examined changes for newborn survival between 2000 and 2…
