3. KPC – What is it?
Rapid Small Sample Household Survey that:
Contains modules so that surveys can be
customized to technical areas of a program
Useful for designing surveys for integrated
health programs
Typically has sample size 300-600
4. Overview: Characteristics
Easy to implement
Developed to collect standardized information from a
variety of technical areas
Modules: questionnaires, indicators, tab plans, instructions
Implementers select modules relevant to technical areas
Within each module select questions & indicators relevant to
interventions
5. Overview: Technical Areas - Modules
Sick Child - (ARI, CDD,
Malaria, CCM)
Malaria (stand-alone)
Immunization
Maternal Newborn Care
Pregnancy Spacing
and Family Planning
Breast Feeding IYCF
Water &Sanitation
6. The Revision Process
Team effort, led by MCHIP PVO/NGO Support with
input from:
MCHIP Child Health Team;
Save the Children
MEASURE Evaluation – Malaria
CORE working groups: Malaria, Community Child Health
USAID: PMI, Child Health, CSHGP
And by reviewing:
DHS, MICs, CCM task force indicators, LiST Tool
8. Includes instructions for contextual information
needed before designing questionnaire:
Which interventions are being implemented (malaria,
diarrhea, pneumonia)?
What are national CCM policies; CHW diagnosis/treatment?
What is current (or planned) situation regarding RDTs? Are
RDTs approved? Is supply reliable? Do health workers know
how to use them and willing to do so?
What is the national policy regarding zinc for diarrhea? Is
zinc available in the project area?
9. Broader than iCCM; contains iCCM indicators
% children 0-59 months with fast/difficult breathing 2 wks
preceding survey; advice or treatment sought from CCM-
trained CHW
% children 0-59 months with fever 2 wks preceding survey
who had finger or heel stick by CCM-trained CHW
% children 0-59 months w/diarrhea 2 wks preceding survey
received ORS & zinc from CCM-trained CHW
10. Broader than iCCM; contains iCCM indicators
% children 0-59 months with fever 2 wks preceding survey
received drug from a CCM-trained CHW; seen again by
CHW for follow-up visit
% mothers of children 0-59 months know is CHW in
community who provides treatment for fever/malaria;
pneumonia/fast, difficult breathing; diarrhea management
11. Challenges
Among/within countries variation: roll-out iCCM & RDT
Must consider context for questionnaire and interpretation
of results
Satisfying information needs of different vertical areas
requires compromise for survey to be feasible
1 ITN for every 2 people requires net roster, not always
practical
Controversy in Malaria community regarding mother’s
recall of finger/heel stick and if results of test received
12. Challenges
Developing combined indicators for fever; fast/
difficult breathing; and diarrhea complicated
Fever and fast/difficult breathing should be seen by a
health provider (i.e. CCM trained CHW), but non-severe
diarrhea can be managed in home
Limited experience using some indicators, i.e.
% children 0-59 months with fast, difficult breathing 2 wks
preceding survey; advice/r treatment sought from CCM-
trained CHW as first source of care
13. Challenges
Do iCCM programs measure immunization
coverage?
Important for prevention
Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV)
Rotavirus vaccine
