TERMINOLOGY Iodine - it is trace element that is present in some foods and is added to some types of salt which is an essential component of the thyroid hormone. Cretinism - is a medical condition present at birth marked by impaired physical and mental development, due to insufficient thyroid hormone often caused by insufficient dietary iodine during pregnancy. Mutisim - a severe anxiety disorder where a person is unable to speak in certain social situations.
Introduction Iodine is an essential micro nutrient. It is required at 100-150 micrograms daily for normal human growth and development. The disorders caused due to deficiency of nutritional iodine in the food/diet are called iodine deficiency disorders (IDDs). Iodine Deficiency Disorders are a worldwide major public health problem. These affect a large segment of populations in all continents of our planet and have been with us from generation. As per information available, more than 1.5 billion people all over the world are at risk of IDD.
OBJECTIVES The important objectives and components of National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme (NIDDCP) are as follows:- Surveys to assess the magnitude of the Iodine Deficiency Disorders. Supply of iodated salt in place of common salt. Resurvey after every 5 years to assess the extent of Iodine Deficiency Disorders and the impact of lodated salt. Laboratory monitoring of iodated salt and urinary iodine excretion. Health education & Publicity.
GOAL Realizing the magnitude of the problem, the Government of India launched a 100 per cent centrally assisted National Goitre Control Programme (NGCP) in 1962. In August, 1992 the National Goitre Control Programme (NGCP) was renamed as National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme (NIDDCP) with a view of wide spectrum of Iodine Deficiency Disorders like mental and physical retardation, deaf , mutisim , cretinism, still births, abortions etc.. The programme is being implemented in all the States/UTs for entire population.
POLICY On the recommendations of Central Council of Health in 1984, the Government took a policy decision to Iodate the entire edible salt in the country by 1992. The programme started in April, 1986 in a phased manner. To date, the annual production of iodated salt in our country is 65 lakh metric tones per annum.
NODAL MINISTRY Ministry of Health & Family Welfare is the nodal Ministry for implementation of National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme (NIDDCP).
ACHIEVEMENTS Over the years the Total Goiter Rate (TGR) in the entire country is reduced significantly. Production of iodized salt in the country reached to 65.00 lakh MT which is adequate to meet the requirement of population . Extensive IEC activities have been carried out to create awareness about the regular consumption of iodated salt in prevention and control of IDD through Doordarshan , All India Radio, Directorate of Field Publicity, Song and Drama, Directorate of Advertising and Visual Publicity.
IDD control programme in India is one of the success stories of public health in the country. The current 91 per cent household level coverage of iodized salt in India, of which 71 per cent is adequately iodized salt, is a big achievement. A mission approach is required with effective and efficient coordination amongst all stakeholders of IDD control efforts in India to achieve and sustain the IDD control goal.(2013)
Current status In India the entire population is prone to IDD due to deficiency of iodine in the soil of the subcontinent and consequently the food derived from it. Of these, an estimated 350 million people are at risk of IDD as they consume salt with inadequate iodine . Every year 9 million pregnant women and 8 million newborns are at risk of IDD in India. These estimates are based on the household-level coverage of adequately iodized salt as reported in Coverage Evaluation Survey (CES) 2009 and extrapolated to total population estimates from Census 2011.
