Publisher Description
INTRODUCTION The strategy of World Health Organization/United Nations Children's Fund (WHO/UNICEF) for Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) is aimed at reducing child mortality and morbidity in developing countries. The WHO and UNICEF jointly developed guidelines for integrated management of childhood illness at the first-level health facilities to address five leading causes of childhood deaths in the world (1). These five diseases are: pneumonia, diarrhoea, measles, malaria, and malnutrition. These are associated with about 70% of all childhood deaths in developing countries (2).
