Introduction: The brain has a complicated structure within the body, but the CNS develops during growth and development in three stages: cytogenesis, histogenesis, and organogenesis, which determine the CNS's final makeup and shape. Organogenesis occurs in children when neural and extra-neural tissues mingle, causing a growing lesion inside the skull. Nearly 20% of the second-most prevalent group of paediatric neoplasms after leukaemia either a benign or malignant primary brain tumour may exist. The majority of infratentorial and close-to-midline brain tumours result in hydrocephalus. Astrocytomas, ependymomas, craniopharyngiomas, and malignant gliomas are the most prevalent supratentorial tumours. Additionally, toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and Stevens Johnson's syndrome (SJS) are now thought to be variations of the same hypertension illness. These conditions affect 1 to 3 million children each year. The degree of epidermal detachment determines the classification; a transitional SJS with less than 10% and 30% epidermal detachment is most frequently confused with Kawasaki illnesses. Case presentation: 9-year-old male child came with complaints of ataxic gait in the past 7 days and vomiting in the past 20 days. As narrated by the father patient was well 7 days back then the patient had difficulty walking due to an ataxic gait, the patient fell on the ground and had a head injury and had no vomiting, fever, loss of consciousness, and no altered sensorium. The patient had 4 episodes of vomiting yesterday and 2 episodes today morning, non-bilious, non-projectile, and containing sputum, patient had a headache that was progressive, intermittent no blurring of vision, not fever but vomiting. The patient then came for further management. Conclusion: The second most prevalent type of paediatric neoplasm after leukaemia, organogenesis in the kid occurs when neural and extra neural tissue combines to form a growing lesion inside the skull either a benign or malignant primary brain tumour may exist. The majority of infratentorial and close-to-midline brain tumours result in hydrocephalus. Additionally, toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and Stevens Johnson's syndrome (SJS) are now thought to be variations of the same hypertension illness. With the development of newer diagnostic methods like MRI, CT, SPECT, PET, and newer electroencephalography techniques as well as evoked potential, it is now possible to accurately diagnose and delineate a variety of neurological alignments. The incidence of these conditions ranges from 1 to 3 million per child lower the risk of morbidity.

There are several countries suffering from short supply of healthcare workers, particularly in villages, it makes difficult to provide essential health care. Low-income of 49 countries to achieve the health MDGs by 2015, an additional 3.5 million health workers are needed. As a developing country, India has a large disease burden and a huge gap in providing medical facilities. There is a need for midlevel health care providers in different settings across the country to provide this service. Government of India has declared new pivotal role of Community Health Officer as part of National Health Mission in order to enable Indian community settings to have access to affordable health care. As outlined in the NMC Bill 2019, nurses will be given the first option as Community Health Officers, which will also facilitate their professional development. Health care access will be promoted through CHOs as a new transforming role. By serving as a MLHP, the CHO will reduce the burden on other health care professionals and also contribute to achieve the aim of “Health for All”. AYUSH and nursing practitioners only qualified candidates for this team in India. Their training and legal authorization limit their ability to provide health care in less cases than physicians, but they have greater access to it than other health care professionals.

This paper reports on the findings of an investigation into the challenges of using Assistive Technology (AT) in inclusive education in Tanzania, a case of students with visual and hearing impairments. The objectives of the study were to investigate the challenges faced by the use of assistive technology in selected secondary and to explore the adaptation strategies for proper utilization of assistive technology in selected secondary schools in Tanzania. The study used a convenience case study design. The study involved 23 respondents: 15 visual and hearing-impaired students, 5 specialist teachers, 1 Headmaster, 1 Regional Education Officer (REO), and 1 District Education Officer (DEO). The findings of the study revealed that there few AT devices were available but most of them were outdated. In addition, the study revealed several challenges related to the use of ATs devices such as inadequate and deficiencies in some of the AT devices, shortages of staff with knowledge and skills to do maintenance, high cost of ATs devices, and lack of ATs training opportunities among staff. The study recommends that enough budgets should be allocated for purchasing more ATs and more ATs trainers and internal experts for maintenance and repair of the AT should be employed to ensure constant availability of fully functional AT devices for impaired students.

Background: Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are a major problem and challenge that hospitals around the world encounter. Nurses play a particular role in the prevention and control of HAIs as members of the healthcare team. The goal of this study is to analyze nursing students' understanding of nosocomial infection in Mysuru's selected colleges. Methodology: Due to the nature of the problem and the objectives of the study, the study takes a descriptive approach. 100 samples were selected by non-probability convenience sampling technique. The tool used for data collection consisted of proforma for structured knowledge questionnaire. Reliability of structured knowledge questionnaire was done using split half method and found r= 0.8 and the tools were found reliable. The pilot study was conducted to assess the feasibility of the study design. Based on the objectives and hypothesis of the study, the data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The mean score for nosocomial infection was 15.19, and the SD was 4.91. Over half of the students had poor knowledge. The knowledge of nursing students regarding nosocomial infections was correlated with their year of study.
