The survey was conducted under the authority of the National Institute of Population Research and Training (NIPORT), Medical Education and Family Welfare Division, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MOHFW), Government of Bangladesh.\n\nThe primary objective of the 2022 BDHS is to provide up-to-date estimates of basic demographic and health indicators. Specifically, the BDHS collected information on:\n\u2022 Fertility and childhood mortality levels\n\u2022 Fertility preferences\n\u2022 Awareness, approval, and use of family planning methods\n\u2022 Maternal and child health, including breastfeeding practices\n\u2022 Nutrition levels\n\u2022 Newborn care\n\nThe information collected through the 2022 BDHS is intended to assist policymakers and program managers in designing and evaluating programs and strategies for improving the health of the population of Bangladesh. The survey also provides indicators relevant to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Bangladesh.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2022-06-27","end":"2022-12-12","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Bangladesh","abbreviation":"BGD"}],"geog_coverage":"National coverage","analysis_unit":"- Household\n- Individual\n- Children age 0-5\n- Woman age 15-49","universe":"The survey covered all de jure household members (usual residents), all women aged 15-49 and all children aged 0-4 resident in the household.","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The 2022 Bangladesh National Demographic and Health Survey covered the following topics:\n\n\u2022 Abortion\n\u2022 Alcohol consumption\n\u2022 Birth registration\n\u2022 Calendar\n\u2022 CAPI survey\n\u2022 Cervical cancer screening questions\n\u2022 Cooking fuel\n\u2022 Fieldworker characteristics\n\u2022 GPS\/georeferenced\n\u2022 Health insurance\n\u2022 HIV behavior\n\u2022 HIV knowledge\n\u2022 Malaria questions\n\u2022 Micronutrients\n\u2022 Migration\n\u2022 Minimum Dietary Diversity for Women (MDD-W)\n\u2022 Pregnancy history\n\u2022 Prenatal care - folic acid\n\u2022 Tobacco use\n\u2022 Vitamin A questions\n\u2022 Women's status\n\nBiomarkers\n\u2022 Anthropometry\n\u2022 Blood pressure (measure)\n\u2022 Diabetes testing - blood glucose testing\n\nModules\n\u2022 Chronic disease\n\u2022 Mental health\n\u2022 Newborn care\n\u2022 Verbal autopsy"},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"The sampling frame used for the 2022 BDHS is the Integrated Multi-Purpose Sampling Master Sample, selected from a complete list of enumeration areas (EAs) covering the whole country. It was prepared by the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) for the 2011 population census of the People\u2019s Republic of Bangladesh. The sampling frame contains information on EA location, type of residence (city corporation, other than city corporation, or rural), and the estimated number of residential households. A sketch map that delineates geographic boundaries is available for each EA.\n\nBangladesh contains eight administrative divisions: Barishal, Chattogram, Dhaka, Khulna, Mymensingh, Rajshahi, Rangpur, and Sylhet. Each division is divided into zilas and each zila into upazilas. Each urban area in an upazila is divided into wards, which are further subdivided into mohallas. A rural area in an upazila is divided into union parishads (UPs) and, within UPs, into mouzas. These administrative divisions allow the country to be separated into rural and urban areas.\n\nThe survey is based on a two-stage stratified sample of households. In the first stage, 675 EAs (237 in urban areas and 438 in rural areas) were selected with probability proportional to EA size. The BBS drew the sample in the first stage following specifications provided by ICF. A complete household listing operation was then carried out by Mitra and Associates in all selected EAs to provide a sampling frame for the second-stage selection of households.\n\nIn the second stage of sampling, a systematic sample of an average of 45 households per EA was selected to provide statistically reliable estimates of key demographic and health variables for urban and rural areas separately and for each of the eight divisions in Bangladesh.","coll_mode":["Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]"],"research_instrument":"Four types of questionnaires were used for the 2022 BDHS: the Household Questionnaire, the Woman\u2019s Questionnaire (completed by ever-married women age 15\u201349), the Biomarker Questionnaire, and two verbal autopsy questionnaires. The questionnaires, based on The DHS Program\u2019s model questionnaires, were adapted to reflect population and health issues relevant to Bangladesh. In addition, a selfadministered Fieldworker Questionnaire collected information about the survey\u2019s fieldworkers. The questionnaires were adapted for use in Bangladesh after a series of meetings with a Technical Working Group (TWG). The questionnaires were developed in English and then translated to and printed in Bangla.","coll_situation":"Fieldwork for the 2022 BDHS was carried out by 20 interviewing teams, each consisting of one male supervisor, one female lead interviewer, four female interviewers, two health technicians (one male and one female), and one logistics staff person. Data collection occurred in four phases (each about 4 weeks in duration) beginning on June 27, 2022, and ending on December 12, 2022.\n\nData quality measures were implemented through several activities. Nine quality control officers (three men and six women) from Mitra and Associates traveled to the field to visit the interviewing teams throughout the data collection period. In addition, NIPORT and icddr,b monitored fieldwork by using additional quality control teams. The quality control officers went to the field in tours of about 3 weeks in each phase. They oversaw use of the household listings and mapping, observed one household and one individual interview conducted by each interviewer, and spot-checked completed questionnaires. The quality control officers also revisited the households of completed clusters for each survey team and checked whether eligible respondents in selected households were visited and properly identified and interviewed. At the end of each phase, a debriefing session was held to address problems encountered in the field, clarifications, and administrative matters. Data quality was also monitored through field check tables generated concurrently with data processing. The main purpose of the tables was to allow the quality control officers and ICF to advise field teams of problems detected during the fieldwork.","cleaning_operations":"The survey data were collected using tablet PCs running Windows 10.1 and Census and Survey Processing System (CSPro) software, jointly developed by the United States Census Bureau, ICF, and Serpro S.A. The Bangla language questionnaire was used for collecting data via computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI). The CAPI program accepted only valid responses, automatically performed checks on ranges of values, skipped to the appropriate question based on the responses given, and checked the consistency of the data collected. Answers to the survey questions were entered into the PC tablets by each interviewer. Supervisors downloaded interview data to their computer, checked the data for completeness, and monitored fieldwork progress\n\nEach day, after completion of interviews, field supervisors submitted data to the servers. Data were sent to the central office via the internet or other modes of telecommunication allowing electronic transfer of files. The data processing manager monitored the quality of the data received and downloaded completed files into the system. ICF provided the CSPro software for data processing and offered technical assistance in preparation of the data editing programs. Secondary editing was conducted simultaneously with data collection. All technical support for data processing and use of PC tablets was provided by ICF."}},"data_access":{"dataset_use":{"contact":[{"name":"The DHS Program","affiliation":"","email":"","uri":"https:\/\/dhsprogram.com"}],"cit_req":"Recommended citations are available at https:\/\/www.dhsprogram.com\/publications\/Recommended-Citations.cfm","conditions":"Request Dataset Access\nThe following applies to DHS, MIS, AIS and SPA survey datasets (Surveys, GPS, and HIV).\nTo request dataset access, you must first be a registered user of the website.
