1 BEST Practices Intervention based on The Lancet s Series on Maternal and Child Undernutrition 2008 dan 2013 Abdul Razak Thaha Institut Gizi Indonesia Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat Universitas Hasanuddin KPIG, Temu Ilmiah Internasional dan Kongres Nasional PERSAGI XX The Sahid Jogja Hotel, Yogyakarta November 2014

2 IUGR, Stunting and Severe Wasting Together were responsible for more than one-third about 35% of child deaths and 11% of the global total disease burden More than 3.6 million mothers and children die each year as a result of undernutrition The very high mortality and disease burden resulting from these nutrition-related factors make a compelling case for the urgent implementation of proven interventions

3 Long-Term Effects of Early Undernutrition There is relationships between indices of maternal and child undernutrition (maternal height, birthweight, IUGR, and weight, height, and bodymass index at 2 years) and adult outcomes (height, schooling, income, offspring bodyweight, bodymass index, glucose concentrations, blood pressure) In the low-and middle-income countries, these relationships related to blood lipids, cardiovascular disease, lung and immune function, cancers, osteoporosis and mental illness

4 Stunting Increases Chronic Disease Risk as Adults Stunting in the first 2 years leads to irreversible damage into adult life Young children who are undernourished and gain weight rapidly laterare at high risk of nutrition-related chronic diseases No evidence that rapid weight or length gain in first 2 years of lifeincreases the risk of chronic disease The prevention of maternal and child undernutrition is a long-terminvestment that will benefit the current generation and their children

5 Evidence-Based Interventions Systematic review of efficacy or effectiveness of 45 possible interventions that affect maternal and child undernutrition and nutritionrelated outcomes, including: 1. Breastfeeding promotion 2. Complementary feeding promotion 3. strategies with or without provision of food supplements 4. Micronutrient interventions (fortification & ) 5. General supportive strategies for improving family and community nutrition and disease burden reduction 6. Interventions for the treatment of severe acute malnutrition

6 Interventions with Sufficient Evidence to Implement in All Countries Maternal and Birth Outcomes Iron folate Maternal supplements of multiple micronutrients Maternal iodine through iodization of salt Maternal calcium Interventions to reduce tobacco consumption or indoor air pollution Newborn Babies Promotion of breastfeeding (individual and group counseling) Infants and Children Promotion of breastfeeding (individual And group counseling) Behavior change communication for improved complementary feeding Zinc Zinc in management of diarrhe Vitamin A fortification or Universal salt iodization Handwashing or hygiene interventions Treatment of SAM

7 Interventions with Sufficient Evidence to Implement in Specific Situational Contexts Maternal and Birth Outcomes Maternal supplements of balanced energy and protein Maternal iodine supplements Maternal deworming in pregnancy Intermittent preventative treatment for malaria Insecticide-treated bednets Newborn Babies Neonatal vitamin A Delayed cord clamping Infants and Children Conditional cash transfer programs (with nutritional education) Deworming Iron fortification and programs Insecticide-treated bednets

8 Evidence-Based Interventions Interventions showing the most promise for reducing child deaths and future disease burden include: Breastfeeding promotion Appropriate complementary feeding Supplementation with vitamin A and zinc Appropriate management of severe acute malnutrition Conception through 24 months is the critical window of opportunity to prevent and intervene to reduce stunting

9 Key Challenges at National Level Not Doing the Wrong Things Getting Nutrition on the National Agenda Doing the Right Things Using Data for Nutrition Decision Making Building Strategic and Operational Capacity Using Data for Nutrition Decision Making Building Strategic and Operational Capacity

10 Social, Economy and Politics Support National nutrition programs should effectively monitor and evaluate target populations that benefit most from interventions pregnant women and children under 2 Countries should focus resources on interventions with proven effectiveness and implement them at scale as quickly as possible Economic and social policies addressing poverty, trade and agriculture associated with rapid improvements in nutritional status should also be implemented Governments should look to incorporate nutrition goals into programs that may not directly address health, but that could benefit from improved national nutrition Nutrition is a central component for human, social and economic development

12 Nutrition-sensitive Interventions and Programmes Lancet 2013 Interventions or programmes that address the underlying determinants of fetal and child nutrition and development (food, care, health) and incorporate specific nutrition goals and actions. Nutrition-sensitive programmes can serve as delivery platforms for nutrition-specific interventions, potentially increasing their scale, coverage and effectiveness.

26 Shifts in the Nutrition Landscape 26

27 The Benefit of the First 1000 Days of Life The building blocks of adult health and productivity begin before conception and take shape very early in life. The notion of the first 1000 days (conception through to 24 months of age) has attracted attention as the blueprint for lifespan trajectories. When threats such as undernutrition and environmental stress occur, lifespan trajectories can be disrupted, resulting in poor school performance, reduced economic opportunities, and chronic health problems. As these conditions extend into the reproductive years and adulthood, they afect subsequent generations, perpetuating a negative cycle of economic and health disparities. The first 1000 days provide sensitive opportunities for interventions that can prevent early threats and protect children from lifelong negative consequenses -Lancet, Vol. 384, October 4,
