Imci Case 1

The document summarizes a case study involving the assessment, classification, and management of health issues in multiple children. The first case involves a child with pneumonia who is prescribed amoxicillin and advised on symptom relief. The second case describes diarrhea but no dehydration, so the child is prescribed oral rehydration and zinc at home. The third case involves a child with anemia who is prescribed iron supplements. The final case involves severe wasting and very low weight, so an urgent hospital referral is recommended along with preventative treatments.
