CHANGE Cohort 3: Assessment of Long-Term Health Consequences of Acute Malnutrition (ACAM). Ethiopia
ACAM is an existing prospective cohort of wasting treatment survivors in Ethiopia which has been followed-up post-discharge after been identified as severely malnourished and treated with therapeutic food. Population cohort includes malnourished children treated in outpatient care in 2014-15. Included in the study are children with WLZ <70% median (NCHS reference), and/or MUAC<110 mm and/or bilateral oedema, admitted to OTP and discharged as cured.
Data is from a follow up study on Assessment of Long-Term Health Consequences of Acute Malnutrition (ACAM) carried out between 2013 and 2015 in rural districts of Jimma Zone, Ethiopia. Five regions were covered including: Dedo, Mana, Omonada, Seka and Tiro Afeta. The data includes household survey including socio-economic status for the whole participants and anthropometric measures, blood pressure, Body composition, and laboratory test results for a sub-sample of 100 cases (POST SAM) and 100 controls (Non SAM).

Description of data capture | Interviewer administered questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. Data collection was done by diploma/degree level trained data collectors using a face-to-face interview in the local language. Data generated through household survey on the entire study subjects and anthropometric measurements on the sub-sample were combined using a subject specific identifier (ID). Then the raw variables have been used to create new variables based on the type of analysis used. |
