SRS: Key features: 

SRS: Key features Dual reporting system Provides annual estimates of - Birth and death rate Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) Total Fertility Rate (TFR) Maternal Mortality Rate Other measures of fertility and mortality . Data on causes of Death 3 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Objective: 

Objective Provide the reliable estimate of Birth rate Death rate Infant mortality rate Provides data for other measures of Fertility rate Mortality rate(infant & child) at higher geographic level 4 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Key processes SRS : 

Key processes SRS Base-line survey of the sample units to obtain usual resident population Continuous (longitudinal) enumeration of vital events Independent retrospective half yearly surveys for recording births and deaths Matching of events recorded Field verification of unmatched and partially matched events. Filling of Verbal Autopsy Forms for finalized deaths. 5 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Sample Design: 

Sample Design A uni -stage stratified simple random sample without replacement, except in stratum II (larger villages) of rural areas A simple random sample of enumeration block is selected without replacement from each of the size classes of towns/cities in each State/UT 6 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Sampling Design: 

Sampling Design The sample unit in Rural areas -village or a segmented village Population  2000- Forming stratum-I Population  2000- Forming stratum-II Urban area- census enumeration block Divided in 4 strata based on size Population  1 00000- stratum-I Population  100000  5 00000 - stratum-II Population  5 00000- stratum-III Four metro cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata - separate strata 7 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

SRS Reports : 

SRS Reports Publication-Annually by Office of the Registrar General, Government of India Report contents- Age-sex Structure Age specific fertility rate Other fertility indicators Age specific death rates by sex Other selected mortality indicators 8 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Also provide data on Medical attention at birth Medical attention received before death Apart from these reports SRS bulletin Regular - half yearly intervals Provide estimates of - Birth and death rates State & national level separately for Rural & Urban 9 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Initiatives in SRS: 

Initiatives in SRS To improve the data on causes of death in SRS : Development of VA Forms Forms based on the existing experience of WHO, Chinese Surveillance System and other international and national studies. Type of Forms : incl. Structured & Narrative Neo-Natal Form Childhood Form Adult Form Maternal Death Form 10 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Conduct of pre-tests of VA Forms in various regions Review of the results of pre-test by eminent epidemiologist/researchers Refinements in VA Forms based on the feed-back Preparation of VA Instruction Manuals 11 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Long term technical partners with SRS CGHR (University of Toronto), NIMHANS, PGI, ICMR, TIFR, Medical colleges of India, ERC (Chennai), for Training/Refresher Training to RGI Staff on verbal Autopsy Conducting VA in 10 percent resample units Assignment of causes of deaths Quality Control Epidemiological analyses 12 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

PowerPoint Presentation: 

The field investigation consists of continuous enumeration of births and deaths in selected sample units by resident part time enumerators, generally anganwadi workers & teachers, and an independent survey every six months by SRS supervisors. 13 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution

Present Scenario & Future Plans: 

Present Scenario & Future Plans All the SRS Surveyors have been trained and re-trained in the art of canvassing VA The VA has been introduced in all the states/ uts . as an integral component of SRS The preliminary results for two Half Yearly Surveys (2 nd HYS, 2002 & 1 st HYS, 2003) were presented in Trivandrum Workshop The results suggest that VA would result in generating cause specific mortality by age, sex and other risk factors on a continuous basis. 14 SIHFW: an ISO9001: 2008 certified institution
