Determinants and patterns of care-seeking for childhood illness in rural Pune District, India
BACKGROUND: An estimated 1.2 million children under five years of age die each year in India, with pneumonia and diarrhea among the leading causes. Increasing care-seeking is important to reduce mortality and morbidity from these causes. This paper explores the determinants and patterns of care-seeking for childhood illness in rural Pune district, India. METHODS: Mothers having at least one child <5 years from the study area of the Vadu Health an…
Validating a GPS-based approach to detect health facility visits against maternal response to prompted recall survey
INTRODUCTION: Common approaches to measure health behaviors rely on participant responses and are subject to bias. Technology-based alternatives, particularly using GPS, address these biases while opening new channels for research. This study describes the development and implementation of a GPS-based approach to detect health facility visits in rural Pune district, India. METHODS: Participants were mothers of under-five year old children within …
Concordance between GPS-based smartphone app for continuous location tracking and mother’s recall of care-seeking for child illness in India
BACKGROUND: Traditionally, health care-seeking behaviour for child illness is assessed through population-based national demographic and health surveys. GPS-based technologies are increasingly used in human behavioural research including tracking human mobility and spatial behaviour. This paper assesses how well a care-seeking event to a health care facility for child illness, as recalled by the mother in a survey setting using questions sourced …
Assessing the reactivity to mobile phones and repeated surveys on reported care-seeking for common childhood illnesses in rural India
BACKGROUND: Traditionally, health care-seeking for child illness is assessed through population-based and nationally representative demographic and health surveys (DHS) that are conducted once every five to seven years and are based on maternal recall. These maternal reports are subject to recall bias. Mobile phones (with the use of GPS technology) have the potential to constantly track movements of phone owners and provide high quality and more …
