ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Ability to Identify Danger Signs in PregnancyT0 Baseline (at recruitment) and T1 (34 weeks gestation - 3 weeks postdelivery)
Ability to identify danger signs in pregnancy will be measured utilizing a self-report, open ended, question that asks participants to identify warning signs that may occur during pregnancy (e.g. headache, vision changes, fever, vaginal bleeding, swollen face, etc.). There is no validated or standardized instrument to measure Birth Preparedness and Complication Readiness (BPCR). The measure used in this study is an open-end question: What are the danger signs during pregnancy? Things that might mean there is a problem with you or the baby. Fourteen possible correct responses; raw item scores are a sum of individual responses; scores range from 0 to 14. Reported results are the average of all individual scores within the study arm. Change will be measured by calculating the difference in the mean at T0 and T1. Higher score means a better outcome.
PrimaryChange in Birth Preparedness and Complication ReadinessT0 (Baseline at recruitment) and T1 (34 weeks gestation - 3 weeks postdelivery)
Change in the ability to identify a strategy for birth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR) will be measured using a binary response (yes/no) to a question that ask participants if they have: (1) saved money, (2) identified birth facility for delivery, (3) identified emergency transportation to the facility, and (4) identified a blood donor. There is no validated or standardized instrument to measure BPCR. The measure used in this study is an open-end question: What are some things a woman can do to prepare for birth? Eleven possible correct responses; raw item scores are a sum of individual responses; scores range from 0 to 11. Reported results are the average of all individual scores within the study arm. Change will be measured by calculating the difference in the mean at T0 and T1. Higher score means a better outcome.
PrimaryChange in Ability to Identify Newborn Danger SignsT0 (Baseline at recruitment) and T1 (34 weeks gestation - 3 weeks postdelivery)
Ability to identify newborn danger signs will be measured utilizing a self-report, open ended, question that asks participants to identify newborn danger signs that may occur after delivery (e.g. poor suck, jaundice, difficulty/fast breathing, and convulsions). Change will be measured by calculating the difference in the mean at T0 and T1. There is no validated or standardized instrument to measure Birth Preparedness and Complication Readiness (BPCR). The measure used in this study is an open-end question: What are the danger signs for your newborn? Things that might mean there is a problem. Thirteen possible correct responses; raw item scores are a sum of individual responses; scores range from 0 to 13. Reported results are the average of all individual scores within the study arm. Higher score means a better outcome.
PrimaryAttendance of ANC VisitsT2 (6-12 weeks after delivery)Attendance of 4 or more ANC visits will be gleaned from data reported on the participant's ANC/health card.
PrimaryPlace of DeliveryT2 (6-12 weeks after delivery)Place of delivery will be measured using a self-report question (facility delivery, home delivery).
PrimaryAttendance at Postpartum Check-ups for MotherT2 (6-12 weeks after delivery)Attendance of postpartum check-ups will be gleaned from information on the participant's ANC/health card.
PrimaryAttendance at Postnatal Check-up for NewbornT2 (6-12 weeks after delivery)Attendance of postnatal checkup will be gleaned from information on the participant's ANC/health card using a measure of 3 visits before 6 weeks for newborns.
PrimaryBirth OutcomeT2 (6-12 weeks after delivery)Birth outcomes will be self-reported and measured as stillbirth, live birth, early neonatal mortality.
PrimaryChange in Health LiteracyT0 (Baseline at recruitment) and T2 (6 - 12 weeks postdelivery)
Change in Health Literacy will be measured using the Maternal Health Literacy Scale. Change over time will be analyzed using between group analysis and calculating the difference in the mean from T0 to T2. Maternal Health Literacy (MaHeLi) scale is a validated measure that consists of 12 yes-or-no questions to assess maternal health literacy among the participants. Raw item scores are a sum of individual responses; scores range from 0 to 12. Reported results are the average of all individual scores within the study arm. Higher score means a better outcome.
SecondaryChange in Ability to Identify Postpartum Danger Signs for MotherT0 (Baseline at recruitment) and T1 (34 weeks gestation - 3 weeks postdelivery)
Ability to identify danger signs after delivery will be measured utilizing a self-report, open ended, question that asks participants to identify warning signs that may occur after delivery (e.g. increased bleeding or large clots; weakness/fainting; fever; pain in abdominal or breast; painful urination, etc.). Change will be measured by calculating the difference in the mean at T0 (baseline) and T1 (34 weeks gestation - 3 weeks postdelivery). There is no validated or standardized instrument to measure postpartum danger signs. The measure used in this study is an open-end question: What are the danger signs for you, the mother, after the baby is born? Fourteen possible correct responses; raw item scores are a sum of individual responses; scores range from 0 to 14. Reported results are the average of all individual scores within the study arm. Change will be measured by calculating the difference in the mean at T0 and T1. Higher score means a better outcome.
