RESUMO

Background: Emotional development is also strongly affected by infantile and childhood visual impairment. Visually impaired infants may not respond and smile to human faces and may be misjudged as indifferent to social contact. Emotional development is also strongly affected by infantile and childhood visual impairment. Happiness, or “subjective wellbeing”, a term that is used synonymously, refers to the subjective assessment of quality of life. Methods: A descriptive cross sectional study was conducted in a residential school for visually impaired and another residential school for normal sighted students in 1:2 proportions. Emotional intelligence of participants was calculated using Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire Children Short form. The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ) has been derived from the Oxford Happiness Inventory. OHQ comprises 29 items. The data was analysed using statistical tool available in SPSS version 20. Results: Mean ages of visually impaired student were 12.37 where as in normal students it was 11.71. Mean emotional intelligence score for normal sighted students was 135.98with SD=8.49. In case of visually impaired students it was 107.93 with SD=10.25. Mean happiness index among normal sighted students was3.98 with SD=0.675. Among visually impaired students it was 3.03 with SD=0.471. There was moderate, positive correlation between social quotient and emotional intelligence which is statistically significant. Conclusions: Mean Trait-EI score was significantly lower among visually impaired student compared with normal sighted students. Happiness quotient was calculated using Oxford happiness questionnaire. Mean happiness quotient was significantly lower among visually impaired students as compared with normal sighted controls. Emotional intelligence was found to be positively correlated with the happiness quotient.

RESUMO

The study was carried out in three randomly selected Primary Health Centres (PHCs) of district Pune. During three months of study period all the patients with animal bite attending PHCs were enrolled for the study. All the animal bite cases (451) were due to dog bite and 61.4% were reported to be bitten by pet dogs.

RESUMO

Missed opportunity for immunisation is one of the hurdles in the achievement of 85 percent or more immunisation coverage. It is essential to screen every child for immunisation status and advise necessary immunisation at every opportunity otherwise full immunisation coverage may not be possible. Present survey was carried out at Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Nagpur to study the sociomedical correlates of missed opportunities for immunisation in children below 2 years of age attending the hospital. Missed opportunities for immunisation in these children was found to be 39.9%. It is mostly for B. C. G. (21.8%) and measles (9.8%) and maximum for booster doses of DPT and polio (43%).
