Description
An anonymised dataset of 92 pregnant farmers who gave informed consent to participate in an observational study of heat stress, heat strain and fetal strain in West Kiang, The Gambia between August 2019 – March 2020. Dataset contains variables on socio-demographic information, past medical history, heat exposure, physiological measurements, and pregnancy outcome data.

Description of data capture | Data collection methods: An observational study based in West Kiang region, The Gambia. Participants were identified through the antenatal clinic and the Health and Demographic Surveillance System. See study protocol and results paper for more detail on recruitment and study procedures. Consented participants were observed in their usual daily activity every 2 months until birth. On the day of observation baseline anthropometric, maternal and fetal physiology measurements were taken. They were then fitted with a wearable device to, and proceeded to conduct their usual manual/farming tasks for the day. Hourly climate exposures were recorded. Maternal and fetal physiology was measured at mid- and end-point of the working shift. Pre- and post- bloods and urine were also collected for analysis. Birth outcome data was collected from antenatal cards or a visit within 72 hours of delivery. Data analysis and preparation: UTCI calculated using R package “rBiometeo” Wearable device data – use of inbuilt HR confidence data – kept if >85%, and summary values (hourly) as well as min, mean, median and max are given. | ||||||||
