Cost-effectiveness of the Matlab MCH-FP Project in Bangladesh
The cost-effectiveness of a set of MCH and FP activities in Matiab, a rural area in Bangladesh, was examined using simplified methods. They looked only at the recurrent cost incurred by the provider on service delivery. Cost-effectiveness was measured separately for each intervention. Cost per death averted and cost per birth averted were measured with respect to a comparison area using cause-specific death and birth rates, respectively. Incremen…
Effect of child survival on contraceptive use in Bangladesh
A study in Bangladesh showed that couples who lost a child often stopped practising contraception in order to have another child. Logistic regression analysis revealed that contraceptive continuation was related to maternal age, parity, husband's education and the sex of the last child.
Does ORT reduce diarrhoeal mortality
Trends in infant and child mortality from all diarrhoea-related causes and from acute watery diarrhoea were examined in a rural community in Bangladesh, during the three years preceding and the 10 years following the introduction of an oral rehydration therapy (ORT) programme. A significant increase in infant mortality due to acute watery diarrhoea was observed throughout the study period. Child mortality due to acute watery diarrhoea did not dec…
Investigating Induced Abortion in Developing Countries
Interest in abortion research is reemerging, partly as a result of political changes and partly due to evidence of the contribution of induced abortion to maternal mortality in developing countries. Information is lacking on all aspects of induced abortion, particularly methodological issues. This article reviews the methodological dilemmas encountered in previous studies, which provide useful lessons for future research on induced abortion and i…
Contraceptive Use in Matlab, Bangladesh in 1990
The results of a 1990 knowledge, attitudes, and practice survey in Matlab, Bangladesh, indicate that contraceptive prevalence has risen to 57 percent in the maternal and child health/family planning project area. Between 1984 and 1990 significant increases were registered in the proportions of women using contraceptives for the purposes of spacing and limiting births. By 1990 fertility control in the intervention area had become so widely diffuse…
The relationship between sociodemographic variables and pregnancy loss in a rural area of Bangladesh
This study examines the relationship between eight socio-demographic variables and the risk of pregnancy loss in a rural area of Bangladesh. The risks of spontaneous miscarriage and stillbirth were significantly associated with maternal age, pregnancy order and previous pregnancy wastage.
Mortality Reductions from Health Interventions
Researchers used data from rural Matlab Bangladesh to examine potential mortality reductions from immunization. 20.5% of all neonatal deaths were attributable to tetanus. These deaths were very high during days 1-2. Nevertheless the number of deaths attributable to tetanus compared to all causes of death showed no tetanus deaths during days 1-4 (the primary risk period) and tetanus deaths were clustered in days 7-8. Moreover tetanus deaths accoun…
Post‐flood nutritional anthropometry of children in Matlab, Bangladesh
The Matlab area was severely affected by the floods of 1988 in Bangladesh. To assess the impact of flooding in Matlab the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (ICDDR,B) performed post‐flood surveys. Six‐hundred households were surveyed. In addition, length, weight, and mid‐upper arm circumference were measured in children aged 6–35 months. Baseline economic status appeared to be higher inside the Matlab embankment, whe…
Child survival
This paper examines recent studies which focus on the effectiveness of primary health care activities and concludes that in Bangladesh the potential for substantially improving child survival and growth is severely curtailed by unbalanced strategies. More specifically the paper argues: (1) that focusing interventions on at-risk children at about 6 months of age is more efficient and less costly in preventing malnutrition than monthly monitoring o…

Deaths from injuries and induced abortion among rural Bangladeshi women
Impact of a family planning and health services programme on adult female mortality
In recent years, the issue of women's health in developing countries has received increased attention. Little is known, however, about the effectiveness of strategies to improve the health of women. An in novative family planning and health services programme, launched almost ten years ago, provides a unique opportunity to evaluate the impact of a service programme upon adult female mortality rates. A total of 1039 women aged 15 to 44 years died …
Maternal Mortality in Matlab, Bangladesh
This paper reports findings from a study of maternal mortality in Matlab, Bangladesh during the 1976-85 period. The study employed a multiple-step procedure to identify maternity-related deaths to all reproductive-aged women within the study area during this period. A total of 387 maternal deaths were identified, resulting in an overall maternal mortality ratio of 5.5 per 1,000 live births. The introduction of a family planning program in half of…
