IDCF 2014 Intensified Diarrhoea Control
Fortnight 28 July – 8August 2014
OPERATIONAL PLAN
FOR STATES, UTs AND DISTRICTS
Ministry of Health & Family Welfare,
Government of India
Intensification of efforts towards “zero” deaths due to childhood diarrhoea and reduction in
malnutrition across all States & UTs of India
2
1. Introduction & rationale:
Reduction of childhood mortality is one of the prime goals of National Health Mission and Millennium
Development Goals. Childhood diarrhoeal diseases continues to be one of the major killers among under
five children in many states contributing to 11 per-cent of under five deaths in the country. Around 2 lakh
children die due to diarrhoea annually in the country. Diarrhoeal deaths are usually clustered in summer and
monsoon months. The worst affected are malnourished children and children under two year of age.
Almost all the deaths due to diarrhoea can be averted by preventing and treating dehydration by use of ORS
(Oral Rehydration Solution), administration of Zinc tablets along with adequate nutritional intake by the
child. Diarrhoea can be prevented with safe drinking water, sanitation, breastfeeding/appropriate nutrition
and hand-washing.
Diarrhoea is common and more severe in children with malnutrition. Repeated diarrhoeal episodes result in weight loss and malnutrition in children who were previously well nourished. There is thus a close relationship between diarrhoea and malnutrition. Age appropriate infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices are key to prevention of malnutrition.
As the effect of diarrhoeal mortality is highest in children, hence special campaign to prevent and control childhood diarrhoeal deaths is undertaken every year for three months from April to June. Besides this it has been decided to organise an Intensified Diarrhoea Control Fortnight (IDCF) this year from 28th July to 8th August 2014, with the ultimate aim of ‘zero child deaths due to childhood diarrhoea’.
2. About Intensified Diarrhoea Control Fortnight (IDCF) 2014
Intensified Diarrhoea Control Fortnight (IDCF) is a set of activities to be implemented in an
intensified manner from 28thJuly to 8th August 2014 to prevent deaths due to childhood diarrhoea
across all districts of all States & UTs. These activities mainly include- intensification of advocacy
activities, awareness generation activities, diarrhoea management service provision, establishing
ORS-Zinc Corners, ORS distribution by ASHA, detection of undernourished children and their
treatment, and promotion of Infant and Young Child Feeding activities.
The core IDCF is divided over two weeks to focus on dedicated thematic areas that affect diarrhoeal
mortality as below:
Week wise details of IDCF
Dates Theme
16th - 27th July Preparatory activities
28thJuly- 02nd August Week 1: Focus on diarrhoea control related activities
04th- 08th August Week 2: Focus on Infant and Young Child Feeding Practices (as child nutrition status is a major factor deciding occurrence and intensity of diarrhoea)

a. provide prophylactic distribution of ORS packets
b. age appropriate IYCF counselling
c. demonstrate & counsel on preparation of ORS
d. counsel on seeking care in case of diarrhoea so that Zinc can be provided by the ASHA
e. in case the child is in red zone of the MCP card, refer to NRC
2. Establishment of ORS- Zinc corners - at Medical Colleges, District Hospitals, Block health facilities
and other treatment sites of government. Similarly, in partnership with IAP establishment of these
corners in every clinic of paediatrician and indoor wards.
3. Hand washing demonstration and practices in schools
4. Ensuring prescription of ORS with zinc dispersible tablets by all healthcare providers
Week 2 (4th- 9th August):
The second week would be observed in continuation as Infant & Young Child Feeding week with key
activities as below:
1. Home visitation by ASHA -for detection of undernourished children and deliver key IYCF messages
to households with under-five children
2. Establishing IYCF counselling sites - at Anganwadi and health facilities
3. Referral and medical management of undernourished children at health facility
Common Activities for Week 1&2:
1. Capacity building of all Health workers in Diarrhoea management and IYCF prior to Fortnight.
2. Intensive Awareness generation through TV, radio, miking, banners, posters at strategic locations.
3. Multi-sectoral involvement for better impact such as rallies, competitions at schools, state and
district level launch by leaders, involvement of IAP, involvement of PRIs, mother meetings and IYCF
demonstrations at Anganwadi Centres

oversee the implementation of this fortnight. Similar structures should be established at State and
District level. At the State level, Principal Secretary Health or MD – NHM should preferably be
leading the IDCF Steering Committee with support from key staff from Directorate of Health and
Family Welfare. At the District level, IDCF Steering Committee should be formed, preferable led
by District Magistrate with support from Chief Medical and Health Officer of the district. At both
the State and District level, Program Officer for Child Health and IEC Officer should be included in
the Committee.
IDCF Steering Committee meeting: The lead official from State and District shall call a meeting

Bureau, song and drama division, NYK, etc
Partners to be invited for the meeting: IAP, UNICEF, MI and Development Partners having
expertise on the subject or assisting the State in monitoring of RMNCHA activities.
Suggested agenda points for meeting:
1. Clarity on role of each department to make IDCF a success
2. Selection and role of nodal officer from each department to coordinate with other departments
3. Stock assessment of essential commodities viz: ORS sachets and Zinc dispersible tablets
4. Stock assessment of IEC materials: already available materials on ORS – Zinc use, hand
washing, and malnutrition etc. should be listed and distribution plan prepared. Additional
materials should also be used after replication and adaptation to local context. Prototypes of
additional IEC materials are available on the website www.nrhm.gov.in
5. Involvement of mass media e.g. TV, radio, etc.
6. Mechanism for involvement of other sectors- WCD, Education, PRI, Water & Sanitation,
IAP, private practitioners, noted NGOs
7. Chalk out daily monitoring and troubleshooting mechanism
8. Plan for State/District level inauguration of the IDCF by elected representatives in a
prominent general hospital.
5
9. Micro planning: Micro plan has to be prepared to facilitate ASHA visits during the Fortnight.
Available resources such as micro plans of Pulse Polio Campaign and Routine Immunization
can be used to identify the houses of Under five children and prepare the visit plan during the
Fortnight. Micro plan should also contain details on ORS – Zinc Corners/ IYCF counselling
sites/ Health Facilities/ Schools, etc which are part of the IDCF Fortnight. Micro plans to be
reviewed by the respective nodal officers and IDCF steering committees for the successful
implementation of the campaign.
10. Capacity building of stakeholders:
A one day orientation workshop of various categories of stakeholders need to be carried out.
Who would be trained/oriented:
Location Participants Contents of orientation State/Regional level
RDD, CS, DIO, RPM, DPM, DCM Technical insights into diarrhoea control & IYCF ; Managerial and monitoring aspects of IDCF
District level BPO/ MOs / BCM / BHM/CDPO/MO- CHC/PHC etc
Block/PHC level
AYUSH, ANM, ASHA& AWW Orientation on activities that need to be carried out in the field. Technical aspects on preparation of ORS – Zinc, hand-washing, and IYCF counselling
During the capacity building exercise, distribution of recording, reporting and monitoring formats
and IEC material should also be undertaken and plan of activities should be explained to all
frontline workers.
Responsibility allocation to each BMO/MO should be done for various IEC activities.
Modules for technical orientation on diarrhoea management and IYCF along with IEC
material are in IDCF toolkit provided with these guidelines.
4. Logistics assessment:
Following are essential commodities: ORS sachets and Zinc dispersible tablets
During the IDCF, all facilities should have sufficient availability of ORS and Zinc dispersible tablets
in all health facilities. Assessment of the procurement and distribution status should be done as
logistic failure can lead to collapse of the IDCF and hence the State and District Programme
Managers need to pay special attention to availability of supplies.
For a district of 20 lakhs population, around 2 lakhs ORS packets (10 percent of the total
population) for prophylactic distribution and around 10,000 ORS packets for ORS-Zinc corners are
required. Zinc dispersible tablets should be made available at all health facilities and with every
ASHA. In case sufficient stocks are not avaibale, the state or district should undertake procurrment
on an urgent basis as per relevant rules and regulations.

5. Gearing up of facilities:
Outdoor and indoor diarrhoea treatment facilities should be geared up for establishing ORS –
Zinc corners. In addition indoor diarrhoea treatment facilities should also be geared up for
management of diarrhoea with severe dehydration.
All birth facilities (institutional deliveries) should be geared up to initiate breastfeeding
immediately or within one hour of birth. Dedicated IYCF counselling corners should be
established at all health facilities during the second week of IDCF.
Schools should be geared up for hand washing demonstration.
AWCs and other health facilities should be geared up for establishing IYCF demonstration and
counselling sites.
6. Assessment of availability of IEC materials:
The State and District IDCF Steering Committee should undertake assessment of available IEC
materials such as videos, hoardings, posters, pamphlets and other materials. These should be
distributed for display at key strategic locations like prominent locations (e.g. bus-stops for
hoardings), ORS – Zinc corners (banner, video) and IYCF centres for placement at strategic
locations, prior to the IDCF. IEC material should be available with facilities at least 3 days before
start of the campaign.
6. Replication and adaptation of National IEC materials:
Prototypes of additional IEC material are available on the website www.nrhm.gov.in and
http://nrhm.gov.in/nrhm-components/rmnch-a/child-health-immunization/child-health/iec-
material.html.It is encouraged to use these materials widely for the IDCF campaign. If necessary,
adaptation may be carried out at the local level for better awareness generation in the communities.
5. Target beneficiaries
a. All Under five children for distribution of ORS and IYCF counselling
b. Under five children with diarrhoea and Children who are malnourished
c. Care-givers (Mother, father, guardian) of under five children for counselling on use of ORS –
Zinc, whom to contact for availing ORS and Zinc and counselling on IYCF
However, for sensitisation of this core audience, a large number of secondary audiences that
influences them would be involved such as Teachers, School children, PRI members, Health &
ICDS functionaries etc.

each health facility i.e SC/PHC/CHC/DH/Medical College and
Anganwadi Centres.
Such a site is a visible place in the facility with following in place: child weighing scale and MCP cards for growth monitoring, mock food recipe and bowls for demonstrating consistency and measurement of child feed, an oriented counselling provider such as ANM/SN having job aides, posters, and pamphlets carrying IEC material for IYCF counselling. On the site, growth monitoring and feeding counselling would take place for all under-five children visiting the centre along with awareness generation activities for visitors of the facility. There should be a dedicated corner ensuring privacy for breastfeeding for mothers coming for RI session. All the health facilities, government as well as private, should ensure that babies born are initiated breastfeeding immediately or within one hour of birth.
3. Referral and medical management of undernourished children at health facilities/NRCs The undernourished children identified and referred by ASHA to health would be examined by ANM or Medical Officer for comorbidities such as tuberculosis, malaria, HIV, other chronic underlying diseases etc. and referral to centres where appropriate treatment is available would be done. Treatment and management of malnutrition and anaemia among children would be provided by ANM/MO. Effective nutritional counselling with demonstration of recipe as per correct nutritional norm or counselling for breastfeeding, components of WASH will also be undertaken for such children. The beneficiaries will be appropriately referred based on presence of any co-morbidity, severity of deficiency, non-responsiveness to treatment and requirement of specialist diagnostic/treatment modalities to higher centres.

KEY MESSAGES FOR AWARENESS GENERATION TO BE USED
DURING WEEK 2
-to be used by
DDO/CMO/BMO/BHO/MO/Managers/ANM/ASHA/AWW:
Under-nutrition in children is a major Public Health problem in our
country. Under-nutrition increases the risk of illness and death associated
with the illnesses. It also leads to compromised growth, impaired
psychosocial and intellectual development in children, thus preventing
children from attaining their fullest potential. For prevention of onset of
under-nutrition in children, following key practices are to be ensured:
a. Early initiation of breastfeeding; immediately after birth, preferably within one
hour.
b. Exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life i. e 180 days (no other
foods or fluids, not even water; but allows infant to receive ORS, drops, syrups of
vitamins, minerals and medicines when required)
c. Timely introduction of complementary feeding (solid, semisolid or soft foods)
after the age of six months i. e 180 days.
d. Continued breastfeeding for 2 years or beyond
e. Age appropriate complementary feeding for children 6-23 months, while
continuing breastfeeding. Children should receive food from 4 or more food
groups [(1) Grains, roots and tubers, legumes and nuts; (2) dairy products ; (3)
flesh foods (meat fish, poultry);(4) eggs, (5) vitamin A rich fruits and vegetables
(e. g carrot, orange, maize, mango etc) ;(6) other fruits and vegetables] and fed for
a minimum number of times (2 times for breasted infants 6-8 months; 3 times for
breastfed children 9-23 months; 5 times for non-breastfed children 6-23 months)
f. Continuous feeding for children during and after illness
g. Active feeding for Children during and after illness.
(For detailed information- refer to IDCF toolkit)

10. Monitoring and supervision plan for IDCF 2014
National level teams will be carrying out monitoring visits to oversee the implementation of
IDCF. Similarly from the state level would monitor IDCF activities by sending dedicated
personnel to monitor activity at District level
The district IDCF committee will act as a nodal committee for all the monitoring and
supervision activities at Sub District level. They will plan for their own supervisory visit
during the Fortnight and also guide Block PHCs for developing supervisory plan and its
proper implementation
The block supervisors include BMO/BHO, BHM, BCM, AYUSH, MOIC and others. They
will visit at least 10% of the AWW ORS-zinc sites and 10% of households provided with
ORS for confirmation during the Fortnight period.
The overall community mobilisation and the IEC activities are monitored
Under RMNCH+A intensification, the lead agency will monitor its implementation through
District Coordinators placed in 184 HPDs
Involve of IAP, Development Partners and NGOs in monitoring the implementation.
Involvement of IAP, Development partners and NGOs and reaching for poor
performing districts: Special focus should be provided to High Priority Districts, other poor
performing areas, remote and tribal blocks, slums, areas prone to Diarrhoeal outbreaks based
on previous year‘s data. Development partners and other NGOs working in field of
Diarrhoea management should also be roped in for better coverage and quality of IDCF.
Technical expertise available with major development partners can be used to orient State
and District Health Officials to conduct the programme. Involve NGOs (eg Rotary) for
reaching out in marginalised communities.
11. Reporting
Each ASHA shall provide the filled monitoring formats at the end of the IDCF to the ANM
(Within first two days of post Fortnight)
ANM will submit the compiled report to the Block within the next two days of receiving
from ASHA
The Block DEO will collate the reports and submit it to the district M and E in another 2
days
The district M&E will submit the compiled duly signed copy to the State level in another 2
days after receiving from the Block
State IDCF reports would be sent to National level by 14th August 2014.
(Monitoring formats are placed in Annexures)

ORS – Zinc corners should be at health facilities like Medical Colleges, District Hospitals, Block
health facilities, sub-centres, private paediatrics facilities etc. Earmark a suitable area in the health
facility for the corner. A small corner in the OPD or ward or any other suitable area in the health
facility is generally enough for this purpose. The space required would depend on the case load.
While earmarking such an area it should be ensured that:
In case of hospital, the area is close to the workplace of the Doctor so that assessment of the
child can be carried out frequently.
The area is near a toilet or a washing facility, where mothers can clean the child and wash
their hands before feeding them.
Mothers can sit comfortably while administering ORS to their child.
Timings:
The ORS – Zinc corners should be functional during OPD timings and 24 hours in paediatrics
ward. A health worker who is trained in preparation of ORS solution and Zinc solution, should be
posted to manage the corner. The corner should be prominently labelled as “ORS – Zinc Corner for
treatment of diarrhoea”
Materials required for management of ORS – Zinc corner
One table and two chairs / one bench should constitute the corner
Sufficient ORS and Zinc tablets with potable drinking water in a clean container, five glasses
(200 ml), bowl / cup, one litre vessel, clean spoons and leaflets should be on the table.
IEC activities at the ORS – Zinc corners:
Banner and poster on ORS – Zinc and hand washing should be displayed at the corner.
Activities:
At least one litter of ORS solution should be prepared daily after washing hands with soap
and water. The solution should be kept at the ORS – Zinc corner. It should be readily
available to the mother when required. Replenish the solution whenever required. More than
24 hours prepared solution should be discarded and not be used.
After the mother has washed her hands thoroughly with soap and water, provide the ORS
solution in bowl / cup or glass with spoon to enable her to administer the solution.
18
In case of a diarrheal episode during ORS administration, the child and mother and the area
should be thoroughly cleaned. After washing hands again with soap and water the mother
should administer ORS.
If the child vomits, the child and mother and the area should be thoroughly cleaned. After
washing hands again with soap and water the mother should administer ORS more slowly.
In case of no-dehydration diarrhoea,
o Administer ORS solution at the corner for some time till the child is comfortable.
o Explain the mother on how to prepare the ORS solution, if possible demonstrate.
o Demonstrate on how to prepare age appropriate Zinc tablet solution in a spoon.
Administer the first dose of Zinc tablet solution.
o Explain when to administer ORS and Zinc.
o Provide at least one ORS sachet and 13 tablets of Zinc to take home.
o Advice on age appropriate feeding during diarrhoea
o Advice when to return
In case of some-dehydration diarrhoea,
o Administer ORS solution at the corner for 4 hours
o Re-asses the child for status of dehydration.
o In case of no dehydration, follow the above steps for no-dehydration diarrhoea.
o In case of severe-dehydration, the child needs to be admitted for Plan C treatment.
