  • Introduction to Use of health impact metrics for programmatic decision making in global health

    Open AccessPatricia H David, Patricia DavidARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    Over the past twenty years, the international landscape for health programming in developing countries has changed dramatically, and global awareness of the consequences of poor health has grown. One result is the international commitment to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) that has put poverty reduction and health at the forefront of the global agenda. And, as new funding agencies and mechanisms (e.g., GFATM, GAVI, PEPFAR, PMI) appeared, …

  • Women's reproductive health needs in Russia

    Open AccessPatricia David, P H David et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2007

    It has been well documented that abortion is a common means of controlling fertility in Russia. Women undergo repeat abortions throughout their reproductive lives, but recent studies of abortion trends in the Russian Federation suggest that abortion rates are on the decline, use of modern contraceptives is increasing, and women dislike abortion as a method of fertility control. Using data collected during 1999-2003 in women's health facilities in…

  • Best Resources for … Measuring Population Health

    Open AccessPatricia David, Sabina HaberlenARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2005

    Health information – a key ingredient in policy formation and programme planning – has often proven to be a scarce commodity in places where it is needed most. Beginning in 1978 with the declaration of the Alma Ata Conference on ‘Health for All by the Year 2000’, international momentum to monitor the performance of health programmes and hold governments accountable for progress in improving health has grown. Stimulated now by the need to measure …

  • Family-Building Patterns and Childhood Mortality

    Open AccessPatricia H David, Patricia DavidARTICLEJournal of Biosocial Science1999

    It has been suggested that altering the pace of reproduction would improve the health of women and children. For formulating intervention policies, it is important to know whether on its own such a strategy is likely to lead to risk reduction. This paper analyses mortality risk in sibships to explore the relationship between family formation factors and other household characteristics that identify women whose families are at higher risk. The ana…

  • Infant and Child Mortality in Bangladesh

    Open AccessNurul Alam, Patricia H David et al.ARTICLEJournal of Biosocial Science1998

    This study examines whether mortality of two adjacent siblings in families is age-specific and is modified by the MCH-FP programme and fertility and mortality declines in Matlab, Bangladesh, using data for singleton births during 1977-78, 1985-86 and 1989-90 in the treatment (MCH-FP) and comparison areas. Logistic regression was used to estimate the net effects of survival status of elder siblings on mortality of younger siblings in the neonatal,…

  • Fertility and the Distribution of Child Mortality Risk among Women

    Basia Zaba, Patricia H David et al.ARTICLEPopulation Studies1996Citada por: 15

    A new method that does not rely on standard social class categorizations is proposed for measuring and comparing the concentration of mortality risk among families in different populations. The new measures can be obtained directly from aggregated data. These measures are used to explore the extent of death-clustering in families, and to show that inter-woman variability in risk is more important than inter-birth variability. Parity is a potentia…

  • Monitoring changes in child mortality

    Open AccessAllan G Hill, Patricia H David et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning1988Citada por: 8

    Health programme managers everywhere are concerned with the impact of their interventions on mortality. Where mortality is high, however, reliable statistics on the number and characteristics of those dying are scarce. Demographers have developed a set of so-called ‘indirect techniques’ for the adjustment of faulty registration data and for the conversion of the results of special questions in censuses and surveys into conventional life table mea…
