Category B (Existing) Pennsylvania Prams Project

描述（由申请人提供）：B 类（现有）PA PRAMS 项目摘要/摘要 宾夕法尼亚州 PRAMS 项目旨在显着增强宾夕法尼亚州卫生部对该州孕产妇和儿童健康问题和结果的监测。作为一个研究监测项目，它将继续生成丰富的母婴数据和信息基础，为全州广泛的服务网络的规划规划和评估提供信息。该项目非常适合该部门向更加关注和依赖数据驱动管理战略的持续转型做出重大贡献。 通过有针对性、科学设计的调查，宾夕法尼亚州母亲在怀孕前、怀孕期间和怀孕后自我报告的经历、行为和健康状况都被捕获并进行分析。这项调查以混合模式的方式进行，利用邮件和电话策略来捕获代表性的响应数据集，反映怀孕相关行为和经历的多个维度的众多主题和变量。 PA PRAMS 感兴趣的人群是宾夕法尼亚州的妇女，她们是该州居民，并且在州内分娩过活产婴儿。通过科学合理的设计，PA PRAMS 调查的实施使得响应数据集能够代表感兴趣人群中的所有宾夕法尼亚州母亲。 PA PRAMS 项目的目标是继续生成和分析这些丰富的、可操作的母亲自我报告经历数据集；在此过程中，每年继续达到或超过最低答复率阈值。这将确保数据可靠且在流行病学上适合分析。它将促进制定可行的研究结果，为孕产妇和儿童健康计划提供信息和影响。 PA PRAMS 项目的广泛、长期目标是降低婴儿发病率和死亡率，并通过积极影响和宣传全州孕产妇和儿童健康计划来促进孕产妇健康。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Category B (Existing) PA PRAMS Project Summary/Abstract The Pennsylvania PRAMS project is designed to significantly augment the Pennsylvania Department of Health surveillance of the state's maternal and child health issues and outcomes. As a research surveillance project, it will continue to generate a rich base of maternal and infant data and information that informs programmatic planning and evaluation across the wide network of services statewide. This project is ideally situated to contribute significantly in the Department's ongoing transition toward a stronger focus and reliance on data driven management strategies. Through targeted, scientifically designed surveying, the self-reported experiences, behaviors and health of Pennsylvania's mothers shortly before, during, and after pregnancy is captured for analysis. This survey outreach is conducted in a mixed-mode approach utilizing both mail and phone strategies to capture a representative response data set reflecting a multitude of topics and variables across multiple dimensions of pregnancy related behaviors and experiences. The PA PRAMS population of interest is Pennsylvania's women who are residents of the state and who have delivered a live-born infant within state. Through a scientifically-sound design, the PA PRAMS survey is conducted such that the response data set is representative of all Pennsylvania mothers in the population of interest. It is the objective of the PA PRAMS project is to continue generating and analyzing these rich, actionable data sets of self-reported maternal experiences; and in so doing, continue to reach or exceed the minimum response rate threshold each year. This will ensure that the data is reliable and epidemiologically-sound for analysis. It will facilitate the development of actionable findings to inform and influence maternal and child health programs. The broad, long-term goal of the PA PRAMS project is to reduce infant morbidity and mortality, as well as to promote maternal health through positively influencing and informing maternal and child health programs statewide.
