S’inscrivant dans le prolongement du Guide de gestion des abris d’évacuation, validant un mécanisme officiel de gestion jusqu’à une période de l’urgence ne dépassant pas les soixante-douze heures (72), ce document initie une tentative d’harmoniser les leçons apprises et bonnes pratiq...ues, ventilées en fonction de diverses scénarios et d’indications précises dans la phase de réponse après les soixante-douze heures (72) de gestion de l’urgence et en offrant un portefeuille d’outils mis en œuvre de 2010 à 2014 .

What is already known?
    Critical illness is common throughout the world and COVID-19 has caused a global surge of critically ill patients.
    There are large gaps in the quality of care for critically ill patients, especially in low-staffed and low-resourced settings, and mortal...ity rates are high.
    Essential Emergency and Critical Care (EECC) is the effective lifesaving care of low-cost and low-complexity that all critically ill patients should receive in all wards in all hospitals in the world.
What are the new findings?
    The clinical processes that comprise EECC and the essential care of critically ill patients with COVID-19 have been specified in a large consensus among clinical experts worldwide.
    The resource requirements for hospitals to be ready to provide this care has been described.
What do the new findings imply?
    The findings can be used across medical specialties in hospitals worldwide to prioritise and implement essential care for reducing preventable deaths.
    Inclusion of the EEEC processes could increase the impact of pandemic preparedness and response programmes and policies for health systems strengthening.

                                                                En la reunión de alto nivel de las Naciones Unidas del 2018 se fijó el objetivo de tratar al menos a 40 millones de personas con tuberculosis (TB) entre el 2018 y el 2022; sin embargo, en el 2021 ese objetivo solo se había cumplido en un 66%. Las pruebas diagnósticas son fundamentales para logra...r el objetivo, pero constituyen un eslabón débil en la continuidad de la atención. Las pruebas de diagnóstico rápido recomendadas por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (PDRO) son sumamente precisas, acortan el tiempo hasta el inicio del tratamiento, influyen en resultados importantes para el paciente y son costo-eficaces. Aunque el objetivo para el año 2025 es que todos los pacientes notificados se hagan inicialmente una PDRO, en el 2021 tan solo el 38% se hizo una PDRO como prueba inicial, y se determinó que el acceso a las pruebas diagnósticas era un problema crítico. Una de las principales consecuencias del uso insuficiente de las PDRO es la gran brecha en la detección de la farmacorresistencia. La presente Norma de la OMS: Acceso universal a las pruebas de diagnóstico rápido de la tuberculosis se basa en las directrices de la OMS y en el manual operativo conexo

This ref...erence manual covers subjects that are relevant to both settings.
The target readership of this manual includes staff working in ministries of health, national malaria programmes and health information systems; partners involved in malaria surveillance; and WHO technical officers who advise countries on malaria surveillance.

By improving immune function, vitamin A (VA) reduces mortality associated with measles, diarrhea, and other illnesses. There is currently a debate regarding the relevance of VAS, but a...midst the debate, researchers acknowledge that the majority of nationally-representative data on VA status is outdated. To address this data gap and contribute to the debate, we examined data from 82 countries implementing VAS programs, identified other VA programs, and assessed the recentness of national VA deficiency (VAD) data.
