The objective of this study was to analyse the effects of age, BMI, delivery spacing, number of children, time of first breast feeding, awareness about nutrition and poverty of mothers on under nutrition of pre schoolers. It is the report of ICDS survey conducted in 2008 for under nutrition among pre schoolers. The study area included all 14 Tahasils of Ahmednagar district, Maharashtra and the participants were 0-6 year old pre schoolers. The children were generally found under nourished when their mothers were not educated, from Scheduled Tribe (ST), Scheduled Caste (SC) and Nomadic Tribe (NT) castes, belonging to low to middle socio-economic groups of the age 20-24 years with lesser delivery spacing.Keywords

The study aimed to assess the level of under nutrition among children of 0-6 year age as influenced by their communities, gender, age group, caste and socio economic status of parents. All 14 Tahasils of Ahmednagar District of Maharashtra State, India were considered for the study. Preschoolers of 0-6 year age with<Median-3SD weight for age by WHO standards and were in grade III and IV level of under nutrition by IAP classifications were the participants. The higher proportion of girls and particularly children from tribal and socially deprived castes viz. Scheduled Tribes (ST), Scheduled Caste (SC) and Nomadic Tribes (NT) were found severely under nourished. More children of age group 12-35 months were found to be severely under nourished. The lower and middle socio economic status and severe under nutrition exhibited strong association.Keywords

The effectiveness of nutrition intervention in severely undernourished preschool children at child development centers and during subsequent follow ups was studied. ICDS survey 2008, for under nutrition among preschoolers was conducted. Admitting severely undernourished children to Child Development Centres (CDCs) with their mothers / care takers for 2-3 weeks was undertaken. Correction of morbidities by using health protocol of WHO, training for preparation of supplementary foods from locally available raw materials and recipes, feeding of children and recording observations on nutritional improvements at CDC and subsequent follow ups upto 30 months was studied. All 14 tahasils of Ahmednagar district, India, 0-6 y preschoolers were included in this study. The application of health and nutrition protocol to severely undernourished children at CDC for 2-3 weeks and subsequent follow up showed marked improvements in their weight gain, IAP grades and SD classification parameters. A continued follow up for extended period is however essential to eliminate the under nutrition in these children.Keywords
