Project ADHUNA

On National Anemia Day, let’s reinforce the importance of early care and proactive steps for a healthy pregnancy. From the very first antenatal visit, monitoring and early testing for anemia are essential. Beyond standard iron and calcium, multiple micronutrient supplementation—covering B12, folic acid, and more—supports the overall well-being of both mother and baby. In cases of moderate to severe iron deficiency anemia, IV Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) offers a safe and effective solution—delivering rapid iron replenishment and helping restore hemoglobin levels efficiently. Small steps today create a strong foundation for a healthy tomorrow. @fogsiofficial @_sattva @GHS @PalshetkarRohan @DrMansiVaish @jaydeeptank @Shailendrahegde #NationalAnemiaDay #MaternalHealth #IronDeficiencyAnemia ADHUNA Website link fogsiadhuna.in

We are thrilled to share that Project ADHUNA participated at the AMOGS Conference 2026 this past Sunday, March 15! Our mission has always been rooted in awareness, but to truly move the needle, we know we can’t do it alone. The Core Discussion: How can Project ADHUNA evolve? The answer lies in collaboration. We focused on: Integrating Wisdom: Partnering with seasoned medical veterans to add depth to our outreach. Effective Dissemination: Leveraging the clinical experience of doctors to ensure our health awareness campaigns are as impactful as they are accurate. A massive thank you to the organizers and the brilliant medical minds at AMOGS for welcoming our vision. We’re coming away inspired and ready to build a network that leaves no one behind. #ProjectADHUNA #AMOGS2026 #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalCollaboration #AwarenessMatters #Maharashtra @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @jaydeeptank @Shailendrahegde @rohanpalshetkar @drameyacp Website Link fogsiadhuna.in

"Dr. Rohan Palshetkar and Dr. Priyanka Garg highlight how family involvement can transform neonatal care: Early breastfeeding within the first hour improves infant outcomes. Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC): Skin-to-skin contact supports growth and development. Emotional support & inclusivity: Visiting the NICU, talking to the baby, and staying hopeful strengthen maternal confidence. “It takes a village to raise a baby”—especially in the NICU. #PrematurityAwareness #NeonatalCare #KangarooMotherCare #FamilySupport #EarlyBreastfeeding #MaternalHealth #NICUCare #PretermBabies” @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @jaydeeptank @rohanpalshetkar @Shailendrahegde

Behind every healthy baby is a mother who was seen, heard, and cared for. This Women's Day, we celebrate not just the strength of mothers — but the hands that support them through their most vulnerable moments. At Project ADHUNA, postnatal care means showing up completely. And to every new mother reading this — your recovery matters. Rest is not weakness. Know the signs. Seek the support. Prioritise yourself — because your wellbeing is your baby's greatest gift. When a mother is well, everything around her flourishes. Happy Women's Day from all of us at Project ADHUNA. #HappyWomensDay #ProjectADHUNA #MaternalHealth #EveryMotherMatters #GiveToGain @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @jaydeeptank @Shailendrahegde

“Managing anaemia isn’t just about checking haemoglobin levels. Hear from Dr. Seetha Ramamurthy Pal: - Complete hemogram: Essential to identify the specific type of anaemia for effective treatment. - Mixed anaemia in vegetarians: Targeted therapy is crucial, as standard treatments may not work. - Thalassemia screening: HPLC testing, partner and fetal screening can prevent genetic complications. - Proactive counseling: Start care pre-conceptionally to safeguard women’s health from the outset. As Dr. Palshetkar says: “We keep thinking about just iron deficiency anaemia; we need to look at the holistic picture.” #AnaemiaAwareness #MaternalHealth #ThalassemiaScreening #HolisticCare #IronDeficiency #WomenHealth #PreconceptionCare @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @jaydeeptank @Shailendrahegde @rohanpalshetkar @Dr.SeethaRamamurthyPal

“Fill it. Shut it. Forget it!” Hear our FOGSI President Dr Bhaskar Pal succinctly articulate the benefits of IV FCM to manage iron deficiency anaemia. With the correct dosage and proper administration, IV FCM is a faster, safer, and more effective treatment than oral iron. #IronDeficiency #IVFCM #MaternalHealth #SafeTreatment #IronTherapy #HealthcareAwareness” @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @PalshetkarRohan @jaydeeptank @Shailendrahegde

India has one of the highest rates of preterm deliveries, often leading to prolonged NICU stays and mother-baby separation. Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) offers a simple yet powerful solution: * Skin-to-skin contact boosts the baby’s health and immunity. * Promotes bonding and reduces maternal anxiety. * Supports exclusive breastfeeding, starting with the vital first milk – colostrum. Dr. Rohan Palshetkar and Ms. Sita Shankar emphasize that counseling and empowering mothers to practice KMC can transform outcomes for preterm infants, helping them thrive while keeping the mother actively involved. @rohanpalshetkar @jaydeeptank @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva #KangarooMotherCare #PretermCare #NICU #MotherBabyBonding #NewbornHealth #MaternalWellbeing

How can we reduce maternal deaths due to PPH? In this video, Dr. Hrishikesh Pai, Past President FOGSI, explains how the EMOTIVE Bundle is transforming the management of Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH). By using a calibrated drape to accurately measure blood loss, providers can act early and initiate timely remedial measures. Global trials have shown nearly a 60% reduction in severe PPH outcomes with the EMOTIVE approach — a major step toward reducing maternal mortality and advancing SDG 3 (Good Health & Well-being). Every minute matters. Every measured drop counts. @hrishikeshpai_ @PalshetkarRohan @jaydeeptank @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @BhaskarPalOBG #ProjectADHUNA #FOGSI #PPH #EMOTIVEBundle #MaternalHealth #SDG3 #ReduceMaternalMortality #QualityOfCare #ObGynIndia

Every pregnancy carries hope — and risk. What makes the difference is timely, informed, and compassionate care. Across private health facilities in 4 states and 29 districts, Project ADHUNA is creating spaces where clinicians and paramedics come together to learn, practise, and strengthen their skills through structured, hands-on capacity-building engagements. During the FOGSI Presidential Conference – STAR Sampoorna 2025, we spoke to 40 clinicians to capture the voices of participating frontline clinicians—obstetricians, and other health professionals—from across India. This video gives you a sneak peek into the moments of peer learning and real-time problem solving — where evidence meets experience, and knowledge is translated into action on the frontlines of care. We sincerely appreciate the support of Global Health Strategies (tag GHS) in bringing this to life. @fogsiofficial @GHS @_sattva @jaydeeptank @hrishikeshpai_ @basabmukherjee @divuhema @priyankagarg @JBunglowal82184 @iamdrkomal
