Birthweight data completeness and quality in population-based surveys: EN-INDEPTH study.
Biks, GA; Blencowe, H; Hardy, VP; Geremew, BM; Angaw, DA; Wagnew, A; Abebe, SM; Guadu, T; Martins, JSD; Fisker, AB (BMC part of Springer Nature, 2021-02-08)BACKGROUND: Low birthweight (< 2500 g) is an important marker of maternal health and is associated with neonatal mortality, long-term development and chronic diseases. Household surveys remain an important source of ... -
Electronic data collection in a multi-site population-based survey: EN-INDEPTH study
Thysen, SM; Tawiah, C; Blencowe, H; Manu, G; Akuze, J; Haider, MM; Alam, N; Yitayew, TA; Baschieri, A; Biks, GA (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-02)Background: Electronic data collection is increasingly used for household surveys, but factors influencing design and implementation have not been widely studied. The Every Newborn-INDEPTH (EN-INDEPTH) study was a multi-site ... -
Four decades of measuring stillbirths and neonatal deaths in Demographic and Health Surveys: historical review
Akuze, J; Cousens, S; Lawn, JE; Waiswa, P; Gordeev, VS; Arnold, F; Croft, T; Baschieri, A; Blencowe, H (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-02-08)Background Worldwide, an estimated 5.1 million stillbirths and neonatal deaths occur annually, 98% in low- and middle-income countries. Limited coverage of civil and vital registration systems necessitates reliance on ... -
Gestational age data completeness, quality and validity in population-based surveys: EN-INDEPTH study.
Haider, MM; Mahmud, K; Blencowe, H; Ahmed, T; Akuze, J; Cousens, S; Delwar, N; Fisker, AB; Ponce Hardy, V; Hasan, SMT (BMC part of Springer Nature, 2021-02-08)BACKGROUND: Preterm birth (gestational age (GA) <37 weeks) is the leading cause of child mortality worldwide. However, GA is rarely assessed in population-based surveys, the major data source in low/middle-income countries. ... -
Neonatal and child mortality data in retrospective population-based surveys compared with prospective demographic surveillance: EN-INDEPTH study.
Nareeba, T; Dzabeng, F; Alam, N; Biks, GA; Thysen, SM; Akuze, J; Blencowe, H; Helleringer, S; Lawn, JE; Mahmud, K (BMC part of Springer Nature, 2021-02-08)BACKGROUND: Global mortality estimates remain heavily dependent on household surveys in low- and middle-income countries, where most under-five deaths occur. Few studies have assessed the accuracy of mortality data or ... -
Paradata analyses to inform population-based survey capture of pregnancy outcomes: EN-INDEPTH study
Gordeev, VS; Akuze, J; Baschieri, A; Thysen, SM; Dzabeng, F; Haider, MM; Smuk, M; Wild, M; Lokshin, MM; Yitayew, TA (BioMed Central, 2021-02-08)Background: Paradata are (timestamped) records tracking the process of (electronic) data collection. We analysed paradata from a large household survey of questions capturing pregnancy outcomes to assess performance ... -
Randomised comparison of two household survey modules for measuring stillbirths and neonatal deaths in five countries: the Every Newborn-INDEPTH study.
Akuze, J; Blencowe, H; Waiswa, P; Baschieri, A; Gordeev, VS; Kwesiga, D; Fisker, AB; Thysen, SM; Rodrigues, A; Biks, GA (Elsevier, 2020-04-18)BACKGROUND: An estimated 5·1 million stillbirths and neonatal deaths occur annually. Household surveys, most notably the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS), run in more than 90 countries and are the main data source from ... -
Stillbirth maternity care measurement and associated factors in population-based surveys: EN-INDEPTH study.

Stillbirth outcome capture and classification in population-based surveys: EN-INDEPTH study.
Blencowe, H; Bottecchia, M; Kwesiga, D; Akuze, J; Haider, MM; Galiwango, E; Dzabeng, F; Fisker, AB; Enuameh, YAK; Geremew, BM (BMC part of Springer Nature, 2021-02-08)BACKGROUND: Household surveys remain important sources of stillbirth data, but omission and misclassification are common. Classifying adverse pregnancy outcomes as stillbirths requires accurate reporting of vital status ...
