The National Vector Borne Disease Control Program (NVBDCP) is a comprehensive program implemented by the Government of India under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. It is designed to prevent and control vector-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, lymphatic filariasis, and kala-azar. These diseases are transmitted by various vectors, primarily mosquitoes, which thrive in tropical and subtropical climates, making them a significant public health challenge in India.
PREVENTION AND CONTROL
✓Implement strategies for vector control, including the use of insecticides, mosquito nets, and environmental management to reduce mosquito breeding.
Diagnosis and Treatment:
✓Ensure the availability of diagnostic facilities and effective treatment at all levels of healthcare, including the distribution of anti-Prevention and ∆Control:Implement strategies for vector control, including the use of insecticides, mosquito nets, and environmental management to reduce mosquito breeding.Inter-sectoral Collaboration:Work with various sectors, including urban planning, water supply, sanitation, and education, to implement effective vector control measures.Research and Development:
✓Support research on vector-borne diseases, including studies on disease transmission, vaccine development, and vector control technologies.

National vector bone DISEASES control program DENGUE
Dengue Fever also known as Break bone fever, is an infectious tropical disease caused by the dengue virus. It is caused by the dengue virus, which is transmitted primarily by Aedes mosquitoes, particularly Aedes aegypti. The infection can lead to a wide spectrum of symptoms, from mild flu-like illness to severe conditions like ✓ Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and ✓ Dengue shock syndrome (DSS).
DENGUE CONTROL PROGRAM The National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP) is an umbrella programme for prevention and control of malaria and other vector borne diseases. This disease has been included in NVBDCP in 2003-04 by government of India. Since then many focal outbreaks have been reported from different areas of the country mainly from urban areas. There was a major out break of Dengue /DHF in Delhi 1996.
Dengue virus has four distinct genetically related serotypes known as DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4 and any one of these (e.g. DENV-4) can cause dengue fever Around 50 million cases of dengue infections occur in the world every year: around 500,000 of these require hospitalization, about 90 per cent of them are children under five years and around 2.5 per cent of those affected due. In India dengue infection is a major public health problem spreading to rural areas. There has been an increasing trend in the occurrence of dengue infection over the years because of changing life style, urbanization, poor sanitation, improper waste collection and management, improper storage of water.
Program objectives and strategies NVBDCP strategies comprise.
Early diagnosis, prompt and complete treatment.
Integrated vector management including promotion of personal protective measures and biological management Planning Formulating policies and guidelines. Partnership
Medical academia and professional bodies
Monitoring and evaluation
CONTINUE Improve efficiency and quality of services at primary, secondary and tertiary levels Training of Medical Officers, Lab Technicians and Community Volunteers of public and private sector
District level hospitals: equipped with ventilators and lab services. Other national health program
Non-health sector departments
Civil society organizations (NGOs, CBOs, self- help groups, panchayati raj institutions)
Corporate sectors
Strategies OF DENGUE CONTROL The outbreak of dengue in various states of India and non-availability of specific treatment of DF/DHF cases leading to heavy mortality of cases, the guideline for management of outbreak of epidemic of DF/DHF was prepared and sent to all the states. 1) Regular monitoring parameter 2) Defining of affected area and containment of our break by timely remedial measures. 3) Regular monitoring of fever cases and management of dengue cases including laboratory diagnoses
and clinical management. 4 )Effective vector control through inter-sectorial collaboration and community involvement.
Disease management Early case detection Complete treatment Referral service
Epidemic preparedness Rapid response Integrated vector Management Indoor residual spray
Larvovorous fish
Source reduction
Supportive intentions Behavior changes communication Public private partnership Operational research Human Resource Development Geographical information system
Chemical control Larvicides (organophosphorus compounds – fenthion, abate) may be used to kill immature aquatic stages
Ultra-low volume fumigation ineffective against adult mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes may have resistance to commercial aerosol sprays.
Biological control
Treatment of dengue Supportive measures -Antipyretics, oxygen as per need Plenty of water and salt are required Monitor BP, platelet count, RFT, LFT Watch level of consciousness, signs of bleeding Avoid Aspirin and pain killers Steroids should not be used Children below 12 require careful watch for dangerous form No antibiotics are of proven value
Dengue vaccination • Given every 6 months. • For Example if one gets the first dose in April, the person will receive his second dose 6 months after, which is October. The third dose will be given 6 months after the second dose which is April of the following year. DOSES MONTHS 1 st dose 2 nd dose 3 rd dose 6 12
