| Summary, etc. | A study entitled 'Information Education and Communication (lEC) for Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD) control' was conducted at the Changa ward of Vellanad Panchayat to disseminate information among the public on IDD and to create awareness about the factors influencing the prevalence of IDD by developing lEC materials. The socio-economic, personal characteristics, food consumption pattern and the awareness of IDD were assessed. The results of the survey revealed that an important factor for increased prevalence of iodine deficiency in the particular area is mainly due to the geographical location of the panchayat. Majority of the families surveyed, belonged to Hindu community and were under privileged. The families were nuclear type with less than five members. On analysing the awareness of study population it was observed that most of them were unaware of iodine deficiency disorders and the importance of iodised salt in the prevention of 100. Food consumption pattern of the families indicated that most of them were non-vegetarians. Cereals, roots and tubers predominated their daily menu, with an excessive consumption of tapioca and cabbage. Majority of the population used non-iodised salt and employed wrong method for processing tapioca. Based on the above results the behavioural patterns to be changed to develop a favourable attitude towards the control of iodine deficiency disorders were identified. A one day lEC campaign was organised in the defined area of study for the conduct of community self survey. It included a teaching class by resource persons and the women were very enthusiastic in participating in the education programme, and 30 women were selected as trainees for further training. For the training of selected trainees lEe materials were formulated. It included non-projected (flash card) and projected (slide) aids. The relative effectiveness of these two visual aids were measured and flash card was found to be very effective. Evaluation of the training was conducted and the results indicate that there was increase in the knowledge, with regard to the prevention and control of lOO. The measurement of change in attitude towards the use of iodised salt was also measured. The results indicate that the programme has developed a favourable attitude towards the use of iodised salt as well as an understanding of the role of iodine in the physical and mental health of human beings. |
