Management Protocols for Paediatric Emergencies, Second Edition
This manual is also an attempt at standardization of paediatric care across treatment centres. Be it a teaching hospital or a rural health centre. It will also provide a guidance for the use of medications, dose calculation and route of administration which help in reducing drug prescription errors. Standardization of care provided will then hopefully translate in improved medical outcome and a reduction in patient morbidity and mortality. Uniformity of practice will also benefit medical students and doctors in training who move between different treatment sites and hospitals .

National Guideline for Management of Childhood Tuberculosis
Its estimated that one third of the world’s population infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( the bacterium that causes tuberculosis (TB)), and that each year , about 9 billion people develop TB, of whom about 2 millions die. Of the 9 million annual TB cases, about 1 million (11%) occur in children (under 15 years of age). Of these childhood cases, 75% occur annually in 22 high-burden countries that together account for 80% of the world estimated incident cases. In Africa, an estimated 10% of new active TB cases occur in children under 5. This estimate is likely to be low because many sick children are not brought to health facilities, and there is a limited diagnostic capacity in many treatment centers.
