Book Description
Approximately 125 million infants were born in 1975 and approximately 10-12 million died before their first birthday. The WHO Expert Committee on Maternal and Child Health met in Geneva December 9-15, 1975 to consider new approaches and trends in delivering maternal and child care health services. The Committee decided to redefine health problems and adapt delivery of services in light of social and environmental changes. The effect of careful and informed mothering on the health of the entire family and the relation of family health to community health are important factors in individual, national, and community development. The roles of environmental and socioeconomic factors in mortality, morbidity, and growth and development have been further clarified during the last decade. In countries where data was not previously available, the mmultiple causation of the main health problems of mothers and children has been better documented. The priority health problems are related to the synergistic effects of malnutrition, infection, and unregulated fertility, together with poor socioeconomic conditions and scarcity of health services.

Book Description
The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.
