描述(由申请人提供)：南卡罗来纳州怀孕风险评估监测系统(PRMS)将从最近接生活产婴儿的母亲那里收集数据，了解她们在怀孕前、怀孕期间和怀孕后的行为、经历和态度。该项目广泛而长期的目标是改善南卡罗来纳州居民母亲和婴儿的整体健康和结果。更具体地说，南卡罗来纳州的婴儿车将用于监测实现2020年健康人母婴健康目标的进展情况，确定降低母婴发病率和死亡率的经济有效的方法，并向南卡罗来纳州卫生和环境控制部的母婴健康计划提供信息和评估。改善孕妇、新生儿和产后妇女的健康状况是南卡罗来纳州卫生和环境控制部促进和保护公众和环境健康的使命的重要组成部分。南卡罗来纳州的PRMS数据收集将通过分层、系统地抽取每月分娩活产的母亲进行，调查她们在怀孕前、怀孕期间和怀孕后不久的行为、经历和态度。数据收集将主要通过邮寄调查进行，对于邮寄的非受访者，将进行电话跟踪阶段。65%的邮件和电话综合响应率将是主要数据质量目标。收集的数据将由疾病控制和预防中心加权，以代表每年在南卡罗来纳州分娩的南卡罗来纳州居民妇女的人口。南卡罗来纳州卫生和环境控制部的合格工作人员将对收集的数据进行分析，以评估孕产妇和儿童的健康趋势、患有选定疾病的母亲和婴儿的特征以及方案的执行情况。收集的数据也将提供给疾病控制和预防中心的工作人员以及美国国内外的大学、政府和私人研究人员。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The South Carolina Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) will collect data from mothers that recently delivered live-born infants about their behaviors, experiences, and attitudes before, during, and after pregnancy. The broad, long-tem objectives of this project are to improve the overall health and outcomes for South Carolina resident mothers and infants. More specifically, South Carolina PRAMS will be used to monitor progress toward the Healthy People 2020 Maternal and Child Health Objectives, identify cost-efficient ways to reduce maternal and infant morbidity and mortality, and inform and evaluate the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control's Maternal and Child Health programs. Improving the health status of pregnant women, newborn infants, and post-partum women are important components to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control's mission to promote and protect the health of the public and the environment. South Carolina PRAMS data collection will be conducted by taking a stratified, systematic sample of mothers delivering live births every month to be surveyed about their behaviors, experiences, and attitudes before, during, and shortly after pregnancy. Data collection will be primarily done by mailed surveys, with a telephone follow-up phase for mail non-respondents. A combined mail and telephone response rate of 65% will be a primary data quality goal. Data collected will be weighted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to be representative of the population of South Carolina resident women delivering live births in South Carolina each year. Collected data will be analyzed by qualified staff within the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control to assess maternal and child health trends, characteristics of mothers and infants with selected morbidities, and the performance of programs. Data collected will also be available to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention staff as well as to university, government, and private researchers across the United States and abroad.
