Adaptation of IMCI guidelines
Another important aspect of the IMCI (Integrated Management of Childhood Illness) strategy is the guided process for adaptation of its guidelines to the local epidemiological, policy, health system and community context.
Through this process, IMCI has proved to be a flexible strategy, able to adapt itself to the diversity of such contexts as those of both the low-income and middle-income countries in the Region.
By the end of 2004, IMCI had been introduced in 17 countries in the Region (see implementation).
