| Evidence based public health is an increasing priority and can only be achieved with the consistent use of data.This session presents a mixture of presentations all using data to illustrate MCH issues or programs. As perinatal care has improved, we are able to focus on more discrete or subtle changes in outcomes and explore new relationships. Beyond birth certificate data, use of data from other sources has expanded to provide improved program evaluations. These efforts have expanded into international settings as well. | ||||
| Learning Objectives: By attending this session, participants will be able to explain how MCH data are being used to 1 - illiminate previously less well understood relationships 2 - evaluate MCH programs 3 - international settings to identify and address MCH issues 2 - | ||||
