Title of the practice:

Being Solicitous for Female Students Prone to Anaemia

Goal of Practice:

To create awareness amongst female students about Anaemia.
To make them conscious about nutritional diet.
To figure out percentage of anemic female students.
To run Anaemia Free Campus Programme.

The Context:

It has been observed that nutritional anaemia is rampant amongst rural female folk. The main culprit for this prevalence is lack of nutritional awareness of the rural folk. Majority of the female students of our institution belong to the rural area. The lack of nutritional awareness amongst them results in irons déficience which ultimately makes them acutely prone to anaemia. It is very important to safeguard their present as well as future life for the victims of anaemia are very easily fallen prey to maternal mortality, high incidence of low-birth weight babies, high prenatal mortality, and fatal wastage, which ultimately results in higher fertility rate. Hence, it is a must to nib the disease in bud. For this, the age periods of rural females should be taken into consideration. This period has a crucial position in their lives. At this delicate juncture, if inadequate and improper dietary habits have been developed, one is surely vulnerable to all kinds of nutritional morbidities. During this age period of girls which is considered most appropriate time to intervene, and behavior change messages embraced by this group can contribute to sustained health impacts. India has high prevalence of iron-deficiency anaemia among women. Between 60-70% young girls are anaemic, a condition that can result in adverse pregnancy outcomes or even maternal death, as well as reduced work productivity and impaired physical capabilities blood lost during menses. Taking these stark realities into consideration the institution has planned to ascertain the prevalence of anaemia amongst young adult female students and to provide them in campus medical assistance.

The Practice:

At the beginning of academic year, a pre-designed questionnaire is circulated amongst first year female students. This questionnaire helps to collect information on background of health of the concerned female student. The hemoglobin level of the female student is measured in the Department of Zoology using fully Automated Blood Analyzer (Make: Nihon Kohden), procured under DST-FIST grants received from S&T Ministry, by the experienced laboratory technician. Total 471 female students’ hemoglobin estimation is recorded. Those female students who are found below average range of hemoglobin level, have advised for proper diet and recommended to heamoglobin rich food and balanced diet to enhance HB level also suggested to consult physician.

Evidence of Success:

Prevalence of anaemia found rampant amongst young adult female students. The female students who don’t consume green leafy vegetables are found anaemic. Expert suggested balanced diet to improve the health of anaemic which will prove helpful to overcome the problem.

Problem Encountered and Resources Required:

Female students, at first, hesitated for medical advice in college on this issue. Difficulties encountered while obtaining questionnaire. 

Outcomes:

During the period Total 471 female students’ hemoglobin estimation is recorded. Those female students who are found below average range of hemoglobin level, have advised for proper diet, and recommended to introduce more leafy vegetables in her diet. Anaemic female students are also supplied Folic acid capsules & other Government medicines with the help of local government civil medical hospital. Anaemic Students repeated Hemoglobin checkup. After the given medicine and guided proper diet Hemoglobin percentage increased.
