研究理由：在保健和发展问题最为紧迫的基础设施薄弱地区，一般缺乏人口动态登记。卫生和人口监测是对缺乏有效信息库的一种回应，这种信息库可以提供关于人口动态、卫生和社会变化的高质量纵向数据，为政策和做法提供信息。设计和测量程序：对整个按地域划分的人口进行持续的人口监测，包括进行多轮前瞻性社区研究，每年记录所有生命事件（出生、死亡、移徙）。现状观察和特殊模块增加了特定研究领域的价值。对每起死亡事件都进行口头尸检，以确定其可能的原因。地理监测系统支持空间分析，并加强实地管理。人口和抽样规模的考虑：卫生和人口监测覆盖了位于南非东北部农村的阿金库尔分区人口，约有70 000人（近三分之一是莫桑比克移民），分布在21个村庄和11 700个家庭。所列举的数据与国家资料来源一致或更详细;已采取战略改进不完整的数据，如围产期死亡人数，并产生了积极的效果。基本特征：在过去12年里，记录了一个重大的健康和人口结构转变，人口结构发生了显著变化，死亡率上升，生育率下降，临时移民人数增加，特别是妇女。在艾滋病毒/艾滋病急剧发展的背景下，存在着传染病和非传染性疾病的双重负担。潜在问题和研究问题：健康和人口监测网站-INDEPTH网络的基础-从经验数据中产生研究问题和假设，突出健康、社会和人口优先事项，为各种研究设计提供成本效益高的支持，并跟踪人口变化和干预措施的长期影响。
Rationale for study: Vital registration is generally lacking in infrastructurally weak areas where health and development problems are most pressing. Health and demographic surveillance is a response to the lack of a valid information base that can provide high-quality longitudinal data on population dynamics, health, and social change to inform policy and practice. Design and measurement procedures: Continuous demographic monitoring of an entire geographically defined population involves a multi-round, prospective community study, with annual recording of all vital events (births, deaths, migrations). Status observations and special modules add value to particular research areas. A verbal autopsy is conducted on every death to determine its probable cause. A geographic surveillance system supports spatial analyses, and strengthens field management. Population and sample size considerations: Health and demographic surveillance covers the Agincourt sub-district population, sited in rural north-eastern South Africa, of some 70,000 people (nearly a third are Mozambican immigrants) in 21 villages and 11,700 households. Data enumerated are consistent or more detailed when compared with national sources; strategies to improve incomplete data, such as counts of perinatal deaths, have been introduced with positive effect. Basic characteristics: A major health and demographic transition was documented over a 12-year period with marked changes in population structure, escalating mortality, declining fertility, and high levels of temporary migration increasing particularly amongst women. A dual burden of infectious and non-communicable disease exists against a background of dramatically progressing HIV/AIDS. Potential and research questions: Health and demographic surveillance sites — fundamental to the INDEPTH Network — generate research questions and hypotheses from empirical data, highlight health, social and population priorities, provide cost-effective support for diverse study designs, and track population change and the impact of interventions over time.
