Overview
The Chókwè Health And Demographic Surveillance System (Chókwè HDSS), is a core research platform of Chókwè Health and Research Centre, affiliated to National Institute of Health, Ministry of Health, Mozambique. The centre is located in Chókwè District, Gaza Province, southern Mozambique., about 230 Km north of the capital Maputo, on the flood plain of the Limpopo River. It was established in June 2010, to provide a platform for implementation and evaluation of clinical trials and health intervention, especially against HIV and related diseases, based on locally generated data. Chokwe HDSS is a member of the International Network for Demographic Evaluation of the Population and Their Health (INDEPTH), since October 2014. The surveillance area covers an area of approximately 600 square kms within a 25 kms radius of Chokwe City, including 15 (fifteen) villages of which, eight (8) villages are part of Chókwè Municipality (classified as urban) and seven (7) are rural villages namely, Lionde Administrative Post (Lionde Sede, Massavasse, Conhane) and Macarretane (Muzumuia, Matuba, Manjangue and Barragem). The population under surveillance is 97,939 inhabitants (~ 50% of total the district population), in 21,498 households.
The baseline census took place between May and July 2010 and covered all the population of Chókwè City. The census registered 56,727 inhabitants in 12,326 households and each household and individual assigned a unique permanent identification number which enables the follow up of the population. All households are geolocated and enumerated. A resident is defined as any person living in the study area or planning to stay for at least the 3 following months.
Based on recommended INDEPTH methodology for demographic surveillance, monitoring of households and members within households is undertaken in regular 6-month cycles known as 'rounds'. Since its implementation, data collection consists on demographic history including details on birth outcomes (births, still births and abortions), deaths, migration (in-migration and out-migration). The updating of demographic data is done in the three following ways:
- Update rounds: In each round, a team of field interviewers and supervisors visit their assigned households to update the demographic data.
- Continuous update through community informants: Local leaders report occurring demographic events in their community to the concerned HDSS team.
- Birth and death registrations in health facilities: data collectors are responsible for the daily registration of all births and deaths occurring in the health facilities in the surveillance area.
The data are double entered into a relational database designated Household Registration System (HRS1) implemented in Microsoft Visual FoxPro version 5. Consistence checking and validation are performed and resolved.
Verbal autopsy using modified WHO standardized questionnaires, based on physician coded approach has been conducted on all deaths since 2012. Currently, data collection is in the process of migration to electronic data capture and interpretation with InterVA applying the WHO 2012 modified questionnaire.
