简要总结
This study measured the impact and cost-effectiveness of a low-cost, non-monetary incentive ("mama kit") on rural facility delivery rates in Zambia.
详细描述
This clustered randomized controlled trial assessed the impact of providing a package of childcare items (a cloth, baby diaper, and blanket) to women conditional upon delivering at a facility on facility delivery rates in rural Serenje and Chadiza Districts in Zambia. Facilities were randomized to either provide the intervention or not. Facility-level antenatal care (ANC) and delivery registers were used to measure the percentage of women attending antenatal care who delivered at a study facility during the intervention period. Results from the trial were then used to model the cost-effectiveness of mama kits at-scale in terms of cost per death averted.

结局指标
主要结局
Facility delivery ratios
时间窗: At delivery, up to 10 months after the first antenatal care visit date
Administrative data were used to measure the outcome. Antenatal care and delivery records were linked across registers. Women who had attended ANC and were linked to a record in the registry was counted as having delivered at a facility.
