Interactive Atlas of Reproductive Health
The Interactive Atlas of Reproductive Health is a web-based interactive
geographic information system (GIS) dedicated to reproductive health
issues such as infant mortality, fertility, and low birth weight. The
atlas provides viewers with access to a unique collection of geographic
datasets that provide reproductive health indicators.
Reproductive
Health in Crises
The goal of this program is to improve the health of refugees and
internally displaced persons following a
humanitarian emergency. The focus of this program is to understand the
burden, causes, and risk factors for negative reproductive health
outcomes. Assessing barriers to health care access also helps to guide
reproductive health policies, programs and interventions.
The Reproductive
Health Assessment Toolkit for Conflict Affected Women enables field
staff to collect data to inform program planning, monitoring,
evaluation, and advocacy.
Reproductive Health Needs of Women Following a
Disaster
CDC's Division of Reproductive Health (DRH) is developing quantitative
assessment tools that can provide local decision-makers and program
planners with information about the reproductive health needs of women
affected by disaster. The assessments cover the following
topics: family stressors, safe motherhood, infant and child health,
family planning, sexually transmitted infections, and violence. Also,
CDC's DRH is developing a set of procedures to accompany these assessment
tools that can be routinely implemented by local health departments.
Tobacco Use and Pregnancy
CDC's
Division of Reproductive Health continues to conduct research and surveillance on tobacco use and
pregnancy. This site provides data and statistics, descriptions of
activities, and publications on this issue. The
Maternal Child Health Smoking
Attributable Mortality, Morbidity, and Economic Costs Software (MCH
SAMMEC) is an online tool to estimate annual smoking-attributable
medical expenditures, deaths, and years of potential life lost for
infants exposed to tobacco in the United States.
Integrating HIV and Other Prevention Programs
into Reproductive Health and Community Settings
The purpose of this five-year Cooperative Agreement is to
support integration of HIV prevention services in
reproductive health settings through intensive technical assistance.
Regional Training
Centers (RTCs) in each of the 10 Department of Health and Human Services
Regions develop and deliver training and technical assistance to
reproductive health providers on scientifically grounded interventions.
Patient Flow
Analysis (PFA) and WinPFA
This
software is a public
domain computer application that helps
to analyze and measure the performance of
individual clinics. The reports assist
the user in identifying problems in client flow, determining personnel
and space needs, and document the personnel costs associated with client
visits.
