The IDEAS Community Base Newborn Care (CBNC) evaluation surveys were conducted in Ethiopia in the last quarter of 2013, 2015 and 2017. Across four regions; Amhara, Oromiya, SNNP and Tigray, 206 Primary Healthcare Units (PHCU) were randomly selected from 12 zones and surveyed at all three time points. Household surveys of women who delivered in the previous 3-15 months collected demographic and healthcare data during the antenatal, delivery and postnatal period. The selection of zones was based on the phasic implementation plan on the CBNC programme and therefore not random. This dataset covers health worker surveys of woman’s development army volunteers. Collected data covers demographics, care provision, MNH knowledge, training and supervisions. This contains data collected from the Woman’s Development Army (WDA).
The IDEAS Community Base Newborn Care (CBNC) study collected a number of variables as part of the evaluation surveys, outlined in the table below.
The study recognises its legal and ethical obligation to protect the confidentiality of participants who contributed to the evaluation survey work. In accordance with these requirements, information that may be used to directly or indirectly identify study participants cannot be made available. However, access to limited de-identified data may potentially be provided for use in research compatible with the original study.
Researchers wishing to access de-identified data are advised to contact the study team, via email or the repository request form. The correspondence should describe the analysis they propose to perform, data variables they wish to access, and associated supporting information to assess the application. An example of supporting information for a funded research project may include the study title, funder name and study ID, details of ethics approvals obtained, and a list of institutions involved in the work.
