Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System Survey

项目摘要阿肯色州妊娠风险评估监测系统(PRMS)调查是一个持续的、以人群为基础的监测系统，它收集关于母亲在怀孕前、怀孕期间和怀孕后可能影响其健康或婴儿健康的特定行为和经历的信息。PRMS提供出生证明或其他来源无法提供的信息。这项调查包含了怀孕意向、产前护理、节育、母乳喂养、保险覆盖范围、良好的儿童护理和怀孕意向、身体虐待等主题的问题。阿肯色州婴儿车的目标是降低婴儿死亡率和发病率，促进产妇健康，并帮助理解为什么一些婴儿出生时健康，而另一些婴儿出生时不健康。这一目标支持阿肯色州卫生部保护和改善所有阿肯色州人的健康和福祉的使命。阿肯色州自1997年以来一直在进行PRMS调查。PRMS调查的数据可用于确定健康问题风险较高的妇女，监测产妇健康指标的变化，制定预防战略，并衡量在改善母亲及其婴儿健康方面的进展。PRMS是一种邮寄/电话调查。每个月，阿肯色州都会从阿肯色州出生证明文件中随机抽取200多名最近的母亲。对三项邮寄调查中的任何一项都没有回应的母亲被联系进行电话采访。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): PROJECT SUMMARY Arkansas PRAMS Category B The Arkansas Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) survey is an on-going, population-based surveillance system that collects state-specific information on mothers' behaviors and experiences that occur before, during, and after pregnancy that might affect their health or the health of their baby. PRAMS provides information that is not available from the birth certificate or other sources. The survey contains questions about such topics as pregnancy intention, prenatal care, birth control, breastfeeding, insurance coverage, well-child care, and pregnancy intention, physical abuse The goal of Arkansas PRAMS is to reduce infant mortality and morbidity, promote maternal health, and to help understand why some babies are born healthy and others are not. This goal supports the Arkansas Department of Health's mission to protect and improve the health and well-being of all Arkansans. Arkansas has been conducting the PRAMS survey since 1997. Data from the PRAMS survey can be used to identify women who are at high risk for health problems, to monitor changes in maternal health indicators, develop prevention strategies, and to measure progress in improving the health of mothers and their infants. PRAMS is a mail/telephone survey. Each month, Arkansas randomly samples of over 200 recent mothers from the Arkansas birth certificate files. Mothers who do not respond to either of three mail surveys are contacted for a telephone interview.
