5. Introduction Non communicable disease(NCD) is a medical condition or disease that is non infectious or nontransmissible . Chronic noncommunicable diseases are assuming increasing importance among the Adult population in both developed and developing countries. Cardiovascular diseases and cancer are at present the leading causes of death in developed countries . 5

6. Noncommunicable diseases include- Cardiovascular diseases Renal diseases Nervous disorders Mental disorders Musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis and allied diseases Chronic non specific respiratory diseases for e.g chronic bronchitis ,emphysema ,asthma. Permanent results of accidents Blindness Cancer Diabetes Obesity Various metabolic and degenerative diseases Chronic results of communicable diseases 6

7. Of the 57 million global deaths in 2008 , 36 million or 63% were due to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) By the cause ,cardiovascular diseases were responsible for the largest proportion of NCD deaths - 47.9% Followed by cancers- 21% Chronic respiratory diseases -11.72 % Digestive diseases-6.1% Diabetes-3.5% And rest NCDs were responsible for- 9.78% As population will age ,annual NCD deaths are projected to rise substantially , to 52 billion in 2030. 7

8. India is experiencing a rapid health transition with a rising burden of NCDs causing significant morbidity and mortality ,both in urban and rural population ,with considerable loss in potentially productive years (age 35-64 years) of life . NCDs are estimated to a account for about 53% of all deaths Pie chart showing proportional mortality (% of all deaths all ages) 8

9. Non communicable diseases risk factors Tobacco Insufficient physical activity Harmful use of alcohol Unhealthy diet Raised blood pressure Overweight and obesity Raised cholesterol Cancer associated infections Environmental risk factors 9

10. National mental health programme 10

11. National mental health programme The national mental health programme( NMHP ) was launched during 1982 with a view to ensure availability of mental health care services for all ,especially the community at risk and underprivileged section of population. Eleven institutions have been identified for imparting basic knowledge and skills in the field of mental health to the primary health care physicians and paramedical personnel,at present this programme covers 94 districts. 11

12. AIMS OF NMHP Prevention and treatment of mental and neurological disorders and their associated disabilities Use of mental health technology to improve general health services Application of mental health principles in total national development to improve quality of life 12

13. Objectives of NMHP To ensure availability and accessibility of minimum mental health care for all in the foreseeable future, particularly to the most vulnerable and underprivileged sections of population To encourage application of mental health knowledge in general health care and in the social development To promote community participation in the mental health services development and to stimulate efforts towards self-help in the community 13

14. NMHP STRATEGIES Integration of mental health with primary health care through the NMHP Provision of tertiary care institutions for treatment of mental disorders Eradicating stigmatization of mentally ill patients and protecting their rights through regulatory institutions like the Central Mental Health Authority and State Mental Authority . 14

15. Mental health care The mental morbidity requires priority in mental health treatment Primary health care at village and subcentre level At primary health centre level At district hospital level Mental hospital and teaching psychiatric units 15

16. District mental health programme components Training programmes of all workers in the mental health team at the identified nodal institute in the state Public education in mental health to increase awareness and to reduce stigma For early detection and treatment , the opd and indoor services are provided Providing valuable data and experience at the level of community to the state and centre for future planning , improvement in service and research. 16

17. District mental health programme has now incorporated promotive and preventive activities for positive mental health which includes : School mental health services :life skills education in schools ,counseling services. College counseling services: through trained teachers /councellors. Work place stress management :formal and informal sectors ,including farmers ,women,etc Suicide prevention services :counseling centre at district level ,sensitization workshops, IEC,help lines etc. 17

18. Thrust areas District mental health programme in an enlarged and more effective form covering the entire country. Modernization of mental hospitals in order to modify their present custodial role. Upgrading dept. of psychiatry in medical colleges and enhancing the psychiatric content of medical curriculum at undergraduate and post graduate level. Strengthening the central and state mental health authorities with a permanent secretariat. Appointment of medical officers at state head quarters in order to make monitoring role more effective. Research and training in the field of community mental health, substance abuse and child adolescent psychiatric clinics. 18

19. Limitations of NMHP There is no initiative from the mental health professional to take active part in this programme.most of them are not aware of the programme. There is shortage of professional manpower and training programmes are not able to meet the demand in providing all medical private practitioner and medical officers The targets set for the programme are not achieved till today after lapse of more than one decade.this indicates that there is a poor commitment of the government,psychiatrists and community at large. The programme has given more emphasis on the curative services to the mental disorders and preventive measures are largely ignored . More public awareness programme are required. 19

21. WHO defines blindness as “visual acuity of less than 3/60 ( snellen ) or its equivalent” Simple Definition: Inability of a person to count fingers from a distance of 6 meters or 20 feet Technical Definition: Vision 6/60 or less with the best possible spectacle correction Causes of blindness 21

22. Types of blindness Curable blindness : That stage of blindness where the damage is reversible by prompt management e.g. cataract Preventable blindness : The loss of blindness that could have been completely prevented by institution of effective preventive or prophylactic measures e.g. xerophthalmia, trachoma, and glaucoma Avoidable blindness : The sum total of preventable or curable blindness is often referred to as avoidable blindness. 22

23. Magnitude of Problem in India Estimated prevalence of blindness : 11.2 per 1000 population 0.1 per 1000 population : 0‐14 years 0.6 per 1000 population: 15‐49 years 77.3 per 1000 population: 50 years & above Female (12.2 per 1000 population) > Male (10.2 per 1000 population ) 15 millions are suffered with blindness in India. 23

24. National Programme for Control of Blindness Launched in year 1976 100% centrally sponsored programme Incorporates the earlier Trachoma Control Programme (started in 1968) Goal: To reduce the prevalence of blindness from 1.4 to 0.3 % World Bank assisted cataract blindness control project (1994‐2002): Implemented in 8 states. 15.35 million operations had been done against 11 million target. IOL implantation had been increased from 3% in 1993 to 75% in 2002. DANIDA assistance to NPCB (1998‐2003) : Funds were utilized for the training , development of MIS, supply of equipment. WHO assistance for prevention of blindness: Development plan for“Vision 2020:the right to sight ”initiative. 24

25. Revised strategies Based upon the finding of survey conducted during 1998-99 & 1999-2000 1. To make the NPCB more comprehensive by: Strengthening services for other blindness like corneal blindness Refractive errors in school going childrens Improved follow up services for cataract operated persons. Treating other causes of blindness like glaucoma . 2 .To shift Eye camp approach to a fixed facility. From conventional surgery to IOL implantation for batter quality post operative vision. 25

26. 3. To expand the world bank project activities like constructions of eye OTs, eye wards at dist. Level, training of eye surgeons, modern cataract surgery & supply of eye equipments. 4. To strengthen participation of voluntary organizations in the programme & to earmark geographic areas to NGOs and govt. hospital & improve the performance of govt. units. 5. To enhance coverage of eye care services in tribal & underserved areas through identification of bilateral blind patients, preparation of village wise blind register & giving preference to bilateral blind patients for cataract surgery . 26

27. Objectives To reduce backlog of blindness through identification & treatment of blind. To develop eye care facility for every district. To develop human resources for eye care services. To improve quality of service delivery. To secure participation of civil society & private sector. 27

28. Infrastructure Development for Eye Care Item Current achievement Strengthening of PHCs 5,633 Centre Mobile Units 80 Strengthening of District Hospitals 445 Upgrading of Dept. of Ophthalmology in Medical Colleges 82 Establishment of Regional Institutes 11 Ophthalmic Assistant training centers 39 District Mobile Units 341 State Ophthalmic Cells 21 Establishment of DBCSs 604 Eye Bank (Govt.) 166 Paramedical Ophthalmic Assistants posted 4,881 28

38. CANCER

39. ABOUT CANCER Cancer may be regarded as group of diseases characterized by an : (1)abnormal growth of cells (2)ability to invade adjacent cells & even distant organs (3)the eventual death of the affected patient if the tumour has progressed. Cancer can occur at any site or tissue of the body & may involve any type of cells. 39

40. CAUSES OF CANCER (1) ENVIROMENTAL FACTORS : responsible for 80 to 90% of all human cancers. (a)tobacco (b)alcohol (c)dietary factors (d)occupational exposures (e)viruses (f)parasites (g)others (2) GENETIC FACTORS 40

41. CANCER PROBLEM WORLDWIDE CANCER afflicts all communities worldwide; approx. 12.7 million people are diagnosed with cancer in 2008 14.1 million cancer cases around the world in 2012 Lung cancer is the most common cancer worldwide contributing 13% of the total number of new cases diagnosed in 2012 while breast cancer is the second most common & colorectal cancer is third most common in 2012. 41

42. CANCER PROBLEM IN INDIA It is estimated that during the year 2008, 9.4 lakhs new cancer cases ; of these 4.3 lakhs were males & 5.1 lakhs were females. Incidence rates 98.5 per one lac population Same year 6.3 lac persons died of cancer out of which 3.21 lac males & 3.12 lacs females Mortality rate is 68 per lac population. More than 2/3 rd of cancer patients are already in an advanced & incurable stage when diagnosed. 42

43. CANCER CONTROL PRIMARY PREVENTION : Control of tobacco & alcohol consumption Personal hygiene Radiation Occupational exposures Immunization Foods, drugs & cosmetics Air pollution Treatment of precancerous lesions Cancer education 43

44. NATIONAL CANCER CONTROL PROGRAMME For data base of cancer cases, national cancer registry programme ( ncrp ) was initiated in 1982. There are 2 types of registries : (a)population based cancer registry (b)hospital based cancer registry At present 25 population based registry & 6 hospital based registry. 44

45. METHODOLOGY OF CANCER REGISTRATION In developed countries like USA notification of cancer is compulsory for every hospitals. The hospitals in areas with compulsory notification & the hospitals cancer registries, abstract the information from the patient records on a specified proforma & send it to the registry (passive method). This is known as HOSPITAL-BASED REGISTRIES. 45

46. However, where trained staff for abstracting the records is not available with the individual hospital, the workers from registry scan through the patient records from different hospitals, clarify incomplete or contradictory information, & abstract data (active method). In India, cancer registry is through the active methodology. Known as POPULATION-BASED REGISTRIES 46

47. GOALS & OBJECTIVES OF NCCP Primary prevention of cancers by health education. Secondary prevention by early detection & diagnoses of cancers. Strengthening of existing cancer treatment facilities, which are inadequate. Palliative care in terminal stage of cancer. 47

48. EXISTING SCHEMES UNDER NCCP AS ON 1 ST JUNE 2008 Recognition of NEW REGIONAL CANCER CENTRES(RCCs) Strengthening of existing RCC Development of ONCOLOGY WING District Cancer Control Programme Decentralized NGO Scheme 48

49. RECENT NEWS OF CANCER By 2025, cancer is estimated to cross 15 lakh in INDIA, which is 35% higher than the 2014 Increase in number of cancer cases may be attributed to larger number of ageing population, unhealthy lifestyles, use of tobacco, unhealthy diet & others Mortality due to cancer in 2015 is 5,05,428 while in 2014 it was 4,91,598 acc. to NCRP Based on NCRP data, while 1 in 14 women in India have a chance of developing cancer, 1 in 16 for men. 49
