Match the interventions in infants and children with the most likely result. CORRECT
ANSWER>>>>Vitamin A in children → Reduction of all-cause mortality, reduced diarrhea and
measles
Delayed cord clamping → Increase in newborn hemoglobin and higher serum ferritin
concentration at 6 months of age, reduction in need for blood transfusion, lower risk of
complications after birth
Vitamin K → Reduction in risk of bleeding
Massage for premature infants→ Increased insulin and IGF-1, increase weight gain, reduce
hospital stay, improves bone density
Vitamin A in neonates → Reduced mortality and oxygen requirement at 1 month of age
,Kangaroo Care → Increase in breastfeeding at 1-4 months of age and increased duration of
breastfeeding, reduction in the risk of mortality, reduction in nosocomial infection or sepsis,
reduction in prevalence of hypothermia
Multiple micronutrient supplementation in children → Improved height and weight gain,
increase in reasoning abilities, improved hemoglobin concentration, reduced IDA and retinol
deficiency
Match the interventions in women of reproductive age and during pregnancy with the most
likely result. CORRECT ANSWER>>>>Folic acid supplementation by fortification of the
food supply → Prevents neural tube defects, improves birth weight, and decreases
megaloblastic anemia
Intermittent iron supplementation → Reduce risk of anemia, reduce low birth weight
Iodine supplementation→ Reduction in cretinism, increase in developmental scores in children
Zinc supplementation → Reduction in preterm birth
Calcium supplementation→ Reduces gestational hypertensive disorders
Daily iron or iron and folic acid supplementation → Reduction in anemia at term, reduction in
iron deficiency anemia (IDA), reduction in the incidence of low birth weight
