This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major birth defects occur in 3-5% of the population and are responsible for 21% of infant deaths in the United States. They have become the leading cause of infant mortality and are the sixth leading cause of potential life lost. Monitoring birth defects is essential and consistent with the military's desire to provide the best health care for families. As the proportion of women in the military has increased, many questions have been raised regarding their reproductive health, including the risk of having a child with birth defects. Tracking demographic and response data is vital to identifying defect clusters and to establish causal relationships between congenital defects and teratogens. On January 1, 1999, the Department of Defense established a Birth Defects Registry at the Naval Health Research Center, San Diego, California. This registry combines health record abstraction (active surveillance) with screening of Department of Defense electronic medical data (passive surveillance), to create a cost-effective surveillance program for the geographically dispersed military population. This first Birth Defect Registry Report documents surveillance findings through June 30, 1999. In the future, annual reports will be published in June and cover the previous calendar year. During this six-month period, 46,171 live births were delivered to Department of Defense families. Among these infants, 4.4% (95% CI, 4.3-4.6) were diagnosed with one or more of 45 major congenital malformations. Cardiovascular malformations were the most common defects. Male infants had a higher proportion of any type of congenital malformations than female infants (56.9% vs. 43.2%). Babies from Marine Corps families had an unadjusted higher proportion of major birth defects (4.7%) compared with those of other branches of the uniformed services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BACKGROUND: The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is challenged with monitoring and protecting the health and well-being of its service members. The growing number of women on active duty and the diverse hazardous exposures associated with military service make reproductive health issues a special concern of DoD. To address this concern, the DoD Birth Defects Registry was established at the DoD Center for Deployment Health Research located at the Naval Health Research Center, San Diego, California. METHODS: The registry captures comprehensive data on health-care utilization to calculate the prevalence of birth defects in the children of military beneficiaries. Population-based electronic surveillance is supplemented by active case validation efforts. RESULTS: Since its establishment in 1998, the registry has captured data on more than 90,000 births that occur in military families each year. Detailed analyses, to include linking registry data with military occupational exposure data (e.g., anthrax vaccination), are underway. CONCLUSIONS: The DoD Birth Defects Registry provides important reproductive health information on the geographically dispersed military population. This program is expected to complement civilian public health programs and be especially valuable to military members and their families.

Book Synopsis Birth Defects in India by : Anita Kar
Download or read book Birth Defects in India written by Anita Kar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the epidemiology of birth defects and their public health and social implications in India. As neglected childhood disorders, birth defects remain invisible in global maternal and child health dialogues. Birth defects services are emerging in India. This book approaches birth defects from a public health perspective, identifying the core functions of a birth defects service. Keeping in mind the complex task of providing multidisciplinary services for children with disabilities and complex medical conditions, the book examines the basic public health activities that have been put in place to address these conditions in India. The book describes birth defects surveillance and the challenges of acquiring accurate and timely data on birth defects against the background of India’s mixed health system. It discusses opportunities for prevention of birth defects and describes the structure and function of an emergent genetic service. It explores issues related to an integrated service for children with special healthcare needs, such as screening, early intervention, and rehabilitation. Furthermore, it describes the impact of these conditions on caregivers, including birth defects stigma. This book not only addresses a knowledge gap in the field of public health in India, but also explores the broader issues of services for children with disabilities and disabling conditions in low and low-middle income settings where access to health care is not universal. Given the depth and breadth of its coverage, the book offers an essential resource for birth defects researchers, researchers in the field of maternal and child health, public health/ global health, disability researchers, and researchers from the fields of rehabilitation sciences, nursing and anthropology. This book will be a valuable read for social medicine/community medicine departments, global health courses, and public health schools in India and other low middle-income countries.

This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.

In 2001 the Registry recorded 92,707 births to US military families around the world. The overall birth defect rate for 2001 was 4.80%, which is consistent with what is seen in the general US non-military population.
