Dear friends:
We are very pleased to greet you.
We present the following report corresponding to our project "The health care of tsotsile indigenous children, in Chiapas Mexico" that covers the period from October to December 2023.
One of the strategies with which the Sanando program works are the surveillance groups, within these groups is the Growth and Development group that provides comprehensive medical care (medical consultation, nutritional monitoring, dietary counseling, breastfeeding, alarm data for preventable diseases) to families of girls and boys from 0 to 5 years old.
This period we served 118 users of which:
106 minors were treated in the 6 locations, 12 children in the San Cristóbal de las Casas clinic.
148 medical consultations were granted, with an average of 1.25 consultations per user in the period.
The 148 queries are classified by their surveillance groups status as follows:
In this surveillance groups there are 5 diagnostic statuses:
Normal nutritional status, overweight or obesity, chronic malnutrition (low height for age), acute malnutrition (low weight for height) and acute chronic malnutrition (low height for age and low weight for height), which in this period distributed as follows:
Within this surveillance group we focus on providing primary care to users under 6 months of age and pregnant women who are in the 3rd trimester of their pregnancy or in the postpartum period, since these are stages fundamental for the proper development of the newborn, so it is essential to insist on maintaining exclusive breastfeeding during this period and after 6 months start with complementary feeding.
Strengthening the health of children is our priority!
Thank you very much for your participation and support

Queridos amigos:
Nos da mucho gusto saludarlos, presentamos el siguiente reporte correspondiente a nuestro proyecto “El cuidado de la salud de los niños indígenas tsotsiles, en Chiapas México” que abarca el período de octubre a diciembre de 2023.
Una de las estrategias con las que trabajamos el programa Sanando, son los grupos de vigilancia (GV), dentro de estos grupos está el de Crecimiento y Desarrollo (CyD) que brinda atención médica integral (consulta médica, seguimiento nutricional, consejería sobre alimentación, lactancia, datos de alarma para enfermedades prevenibles) a familias de niñas y niños de 0 a 5 años.
Este periodo atendimos a 118 usuarios de los cuales:
Las 148 consultas se clasifican por su estatus del GV de la siguiente manera:
En este GV se tienen 5 estatus diagnósticos:
Estado nutricional normal, sobrepeso u obesidad, desnutrición crónica (talla baja para la edad), desnutrición aguda (peso bajo para la talla) y desnutrición Crónica agudizada (talla baja para la edad y peso bajo para la talla), que en este periodo se distribuyeron de la siguiente manera:
Dentro de este grupo de vigilancia nos enfocamos en brindar atención primordial, a usuarios menores de 6 meses y mujeres embarazadas que cursan el 3er trimestre de su embarazo o en periodo de puerperio, ya que son etapas fundamentales para el adecuado desarrollo del recién nacido, por lo que es indispensable insistir en mantener la lactancia materna exclusiva durante este periodo y después de los 6 meses iniciar con la alimentación complementaria.
¡El fortalecimiento de la salud de los niños, niñas es nuestra prioridad!
Muchas gracias por tu participación y apoyo.
