Awareness
Because of lack of awareness about fistula, many do not regard fistula as a health problem. Priority would be given to raise the awareness level with the help of media, audio-visual aids and with involvement of community based health infrastructure. Various community based awareness program has been conducted by Fistula Free Nepal in different district of Eastern Region of Nepal like Sunsari, Morang, Sagarmatha. We are conducting awareness programmes with the help of GON, local NGO's and Fistula Foundation.
Treatment
Treatment of fistula involves complex surgical procedures. So far, such surgical procedures are performed regularly in this centre. All together more than 100 patients have been operated in past 3 years. For treatment we have collaboration with expert from abroad. Free surgical treatment is available with the initiative of UNFPA and BPKIHS.
Rehabilitation
About 30% of all the fistula patients in Nepal are socially neglected and abandoned from family. Most of them develop fistula after first child birth. After that, they are neglected from spouse and family. So, reintegrating them back in the society is very important aspect of the fistula treatment program. Due to lack of resources, presently there is no such program. We look forward to expand this program for reintegration and rehabilitation of fistula patients back to society.
Workshop in Fistula
Fistula Free Nepal, BPKIHS has organised the "Workshop on Advanced Obstetric Fistula Management".
It was organised from 12th -17th September 2015 @ Department of Obs & Gyne, BPKIHS, Dharan.
The fistula surgeons from inside and outside the country participated in the workshop.
Diversion Fistula surgeries were done along with many difficult Genitourinary fistula surgeries.
The program was successful as all the surgeries was conducted successfully and patients also fully recovered.
We would like to thank all for the support
