During this epidemic of COVID-19, children are in need of much concentration and profound love of the senior family members. Although the measures taken by the organizations are necessary to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, they may be causing widespread mental health issues, including depression and loneliness. Therefore, it is imperative that parents have to spend the lion-share of time with children while listening to them cordially. Parents can participate in sports with them to help them stay fit so that they can enjoy commemorating moments. However, in this additional time, the parents can also make them habituated to practice the rules of health, so does social distancing.
Introduction: Approximately 9.2 million refugees live in Asia, with most originating from Afghanistan and Myanmar, and half of them are women, girls, and children. Humanitarian crises disrupt the existing health-care system, limiting access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. This review explores the SRH status of Afghan and Rohingya refugee women of reproductive age in Asia and their needs and experiences in accessing these services and commodities. Materials and Methods: We used the PRISMA checklist and searched for qualitative and quantitative peer-reviewed studies from five online bibliographic databases, SCOPUS, EMBASE (Ovid), MEDLINE (Ovid), CINAHL, and PROQUEST, from January 2000 to April 2021. Content analysis was undertaken following the minimum initial service package objectives. Results: Fifteen studies were included in this review from four countries: Bangladesh (5), Pakistan (5), Iran (4), and Malaysia (1). Approximately 50.91% of Rohingya and 54% of Afghan refugee women used contraceptives. About 56.6% of Afghan refugee mothers experienced pregnancy-related complications, one-third received antenatal care, and low birth weight was 2.6 times higher among infants born to Afghan refugee mothers than to Pakistani-born mothers. One out of five Rohingya women received delivery-related care. Approximately 72% of Rohingya and 79.8% of Afghan refugee women had experienced gender-based violence, and 56.5% of Rohingya women engaged in unwanted sexual intercourse with their husbands. Conclusion: Social norms, stigma, cultural values, distrust of providers, inadequate staff, and prohibition by family members limit their access to SRH services and influence their needs, knowledge, and perceptions regarding SRH.
Background: In a remote district city of Bangladesh, inguinal hernias were repaired by Maloney (Darning) method.Efficacy of Darning repair was compared in this study.Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of doing Maloney ( Darn ) repair for adult inguinal hernias by specialist surgeons at remote districts . Age of the patients in ourstudy were above 20 years.Study Design: A descriptive retrospective study.Materials and Methods:In our study we included 2000 patient of inguinal hernia surgery repairs from May 2012 through June 2017. In the patients of the study group we repaired inguinal hernia by Maloney ( Darning) technique. Number of patients were 2000 ( male 1990 [99.5%] female 10 [.5%] with a mean age of 45.7 years. There were 1002(50.1%) hernias on the right side, 890(44.5%) were on the left side and 108(5.4%) were bilateral. Among the hernias 1419 ( 70.9%) were indirect, 575 (28.7%) were direct and 4 (0.2%) were of both direct and indirect (Pantoolon type), 2 (0.1%) were of femoral hernia. All were of primary hernias, recurrent hernias and hernias in patients with apparently weak musculature were repaired by Lychtenistein method with prolein mesh and were not included in this stpudy. 60 (3%) patients had feature of incarceration and 20 (1%) patients presented with obstruction. Among the obstructed hernias 8 (.4%) had strangulation and in 2 (.1%) resection and anastomosis were required for gangrenous ileum. In rest of the cases of strangulation circulation returned after incising the constricting ring and hot mob compression. We used IV antibiotic for 24 hours stated with induction of anaesthesia followed by oral for next 6 days. We used Injection Ceftrixone followed by Cefixime and in some patients Flucloxacillin.Statistics Analysis Used: Simple frequencies, proportion and cross tabulation.Results: Average duration of surgery was 70 minutes. There was no perioperative mortality. 90 (4.5%) patients developed mild subcutaneous wound infection, haematoma occurred in 160 ( 8% ) patients and seroma found in 300 ( 15% ) patients. All haematoma and seroma subsided gradually. Only 1 patient needed secondary closure for infected wound gap. The average duration of hospitalization was 3 days. All patients in study group are still in contact with me. Three patients (0.15%) had recurrences. All the recurrent cases reported within 6 months of their operations. Among the three age of 2 patients was above 60 and one patient of age above 70 had Maloney hernia repair for obstructed hernia.Conclusion:In remote places where prolene mesh is not available or is costly we can repair inguinal hernia by Maloney operation with very simple antibiotics with good results in comparison with other methods.J Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, June 2018, Vol.10(1); 6-10
