Directorate of National Vector Borne Disease Control Program (NVBDCP) is the focal nodal office for the anticipation and control of vector borne maladies i.e. Intestinal sickness, Dengue, Lymphatic Filariasis, Kala-azar, Japanese Encephalitis and Chikungunya in India. It is one of the Technical Departments of Directorate General of Health Services, Government of India.

National Vector Borne Disease Control Program

Presentation

Propelled in 2003-04 by combining National hostile to - intestinal sickness control program ,National Filaria Control Program and Kala Azar Control programs .Japanese B Encephalitis and Dengue/DHF have likewise been incorporated into this Program Directorate of NAMP is the nodal office for anticipation and control of significant Vector Borne Diseases

Rundown of Vector Borne Diseases Control Program Legislations:

1) National Anti - Malaria program

2) Kala - Azar Control Program

3) National Filaria Control Program

4) Japenese Encephilitis Control Program

5) Dengue and Dengue Hemorrhagic fever

1) National Anti - Malaria Program

Intestinal sickness is one of the genuine general wellbeing issues in India. At the season of freedom jungle fever was contributing 75 million cases with 0.8 million passings consistently before the starting of National Malaria Control Program in 1953. A countrywide exhaustive project to control jungle fever was suggested in 1946 by the Bhore board of trustees report that was embraced by the Planning Commission in 1951. The national system against jungle fever has a long history since that time. In April 1953, Govt. of India dispatched a National Malaria Control Program (NMCP).

Objective:

To cut down intestinal sickness transmission to a level at which it would stop to be a noteworthy general wellbeing issue.

2) Kala - Azar Control Program

Kala-azar or instinctive leishmaniasis (VL) is an incessant infection brought about by an intracellular protozoan (Leishmania species) and transmitted to man by chomp of female phlebotomus sand fly.Currently, it is a fundamental issue in Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal and some parts of Uttar Pradesh. In perspective of the developing issue arranged control measures were started to control kala-azar.

Targets:

The methodology for kala-azar control comprehensively included three fundamental exercises.

Interference of transmission by lessening vector populace through indoor lingering bug sprays.

Early determination and complete treatment of Kala-azar cases; and

Wellbeing training program for group mindfulness.

3) National Filaria Control Program

Bancrftian filariasis brought about by Wuchereria bancrofti, which is transmitted to man by the chomps of tainted mosquitoes - Culex, Anopheles, Mansonia and Aedes. Lymphatia filaria is predominant in 18 states and union domains. Bancrftian filariasis is generally conveyed while brugian filariasis brought on by Brugia malayi is confined to 6 states - UP, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Gujarat. The National Filaria Control Program was propelled in 1955. The exercises were for the most part bound to urban territories. Be that as it may, the system has been reached out to rustic territories since 1994.

Destinations:

Diminishment of the issue in un-overviewed ranges

Control in urban zones through repetitive hostile to larval and against parasitic measures.

4) Japanese Encephalitis Control Program

Japanese encephalitis (JE) is a zoonotic malady and brought about by an arbovirus, bunch B (Flavivirus) and transmitted by Culex mosquitoes. This illness has been accounted for from 26 states and UTs since 1978, just 15 states are reporting JE routinely. The case casualty in India is 35% which can be decreased by early discovery, prompt referral to healing facility and legitimate therapeutic and nursing care. The aggregate populace at danger is evaluated 160 million. The most aggravating component of JE has been the general event of episode in various parts of the nation.

Govt. of India has constituted a Task Force at National Level which is in operation and surveys the JE circumstances and its control methodologies every once in a while. In spite of the fact that Directorate of National Anti-Malaria Program is checking JE circumstance in the nation.

Targets:

Fortifying early analysis and brief case administration at PHCs, CHCs and doctor's facilities through preparing of therapeutic and nursing staff.

IEC for group attention to advance early case reporting, individual assurance, segregation of speaker host, and so forth.;

Vector control measures for the most part misting amid episodes, space splashing in creature homes, and antilarval operation where possible; and

Advancement of a protected and standard indigenous immunization. Inoculation for high hazard populace especially youngsters underneath 15 years old.

5) Dengue and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever

A standout amongst the most imperative resurgent tropical irresistible sickness is dengue. Dengue Fever and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) are intense fevers brought on by four antigenically related yet particular dengue infection serotypes (DEN 1,2,3 and 4) transmitted by the contaminated mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti. Dengue episodes have been accounted for from urban territories from all states. All the four serotypes of dengue infection (1,2,3 and 4) exist in India. The Vector Aedes Aegypti breed in peridomestic crisp water accumulations and is found in both urban and provincial ranges.

Targets:

Reconnaissance for illness and flare-ups

Early determination and brief case administration

Vector control through group support and social preparation
