Чрезвычайные ситуации возникают по целому ряду причин: природные бедствия, такие как землетрясения и наводнения; вооруженные конфликты и гражданские войны; техно...енные катастрофы, включая радиационные аварии. Вне зависимости от природы пускового фактора результатом часто является череда человеческих страданий. Речь может идти о крупномасштабных вынужденных перемещениях населения, дефиците пищевых продуктов, вспышках болезней, нарушении прав и достоинства человека и смертях.
Путем публикации данных материалов ВОЗ ставит перед собой цель обеспечения того, чтобы в условиях чрезвычайной ситуации не упускались возможности для реформирования системы охраны психического здоровья.

This interim guideline lays out some basic principles of optimal nutritional care for adults and paediatric patients during treatment and convalescence in Ebola treatment units, community care centres or to other centres where Ebola patients are receiving care and support. It h...ighlights the key clinical problems in patients affected by Ebola virus disease (EVD) that may interfere with their nutritional status and overall clinical support in the context of the current Ebola crisis, and summarizes their nutritional needs. It does not provide specific advice on fluid management in cases of vomiting, diarrhoea and dehydration or parenteral nutrition

The EMA review was started by the Agency’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) to support decision-making by health authorities. This first interim report includes information on seven experimental medicines intended for the treatment of people infecte...d with the Ebola virus:
    BCX4430 (Biocryst);
    Brincidofovir (Chimerix);
    Favipiravir (Fujifilm Corporation/Toyama);
    TKM-100802 (Tekmira);
    AVI-7537 (Sarepta);
    ZMapp (Leafbio Inc.);
    Anti-Ebola F(ab’)2 (Fab’entech).
The amount of information available for the seven treatments is highly variable. For some compounds there is no data from use in human subjects available. A small number of treatments have been administered to patients in the current Ebola outbreak as compassionate use. Finally, there are also medicines included in this review that have already been studied in humans, albeit for the treatment of other viral diseases.
