Sponsor's own description

Though malnutrition is prevalent worldwide but its situation is alarming in low- and middle-income countries. Pakistan has also been facing an alarming situation of prevailing severe malnutrition. Malnutrition in its any form costs a huge intolerable burden not only on national health care system, but also on social and economic fabric of the nation. The current management of severe malnutrition is based on World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines and protocols which has been evolved from expert opinions and observational studies. The principles of these protocols have emerged from emergency settings and converting these protocols for developing countries where severe malnutrition, a routine burden is a critical challenge. In the absence of standard protocols for the treatment of uncomplicated severe malnutrition in non-emergency settings it is important to test and optimize different approaches to treat severely acute malnutrition (SAM). It is hypothesized that by optimizing, adapting and implementing time oriented and resource intensive approaches, a huge burden of high cost of RUTF may be reduced. While RUTF may be utilized to treat SAM children in emergency settings, it is not a substitute of local household foods. Therefore, a pilot study has been conducted to compare the various treatment protocols for malnourished children. We specifically hypothesized that a reduced dose of RUTF for reduced duration, combined with age-appropriate food intake from locally available resources can treat uncomplicated SAM children cost effectively as compared to standard national Community Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) protocol currently implemented in Punjab, Pakistan.
