  • National Health and Nutrition Survey 2018-19: methodology and perspectives
    Salud publica de Mexico, 2019
    Co-Authors: Martín Romero-martínez, Teresa Shamah-levy, Lucía Cuevas-nasu, Juan Ángel Rivera-dommarco, Edgar Vielma-orozco, Octavio Heredia-hernández, Jaime Mojica-cuevas, Grupo De Trabajo Ensanut
    Abstract:

    OBJECTIVE Describe the methodological design of the National Health and Nutrition Survey 2018-19 (Ensanut 2018-19). MATERIALS and METHODS Ensanut 2018-19 is a probabilistic household survey. The following design elements are described: survey scope, sampling procedure, measurement procedure, inference procedure, and logistics organization. RESULTS 44 069 full housing interviews and 82 490 full interviews of individuals were obtained. The home response rate was 87%. The response rate for individuals was 98%. CONCLUSIONS The probabilistic design of the survey allows to create valid statistical inferences on parameters of public Health interest at the national level and for all 32 states. In addition, some of the results are comparable with Ensanut 2012 in order to identify potential changes in the Health and Nutrition status of the Mexican population, so that Health policies can be adjusted if necessary.

  • National Health and Nutrition Survey 2012: design and coverage
    Salud publica de Mexico, 2013
    Co-Authors: Martín Romero-martínez, Teresa Shamah-levy, Aurora Franco-núñez, Salvador Villalpando, Lucía Cuevas-nasu, Juan Pablo Gutiérrez, Juan Ángel Rivera-dommarco
    Abstract:

    To describe the design and population coverage of the National Health and Nutrition Survey 2012 (NHNS 2012). The design of the NHNS 2012 is reported, as a probabilistic population based survey with a multi-stage and stratified sampling, as well as the sample inferential properties, the logistical procedures, and the obtained coverage. Household response rate for the NHNS 2012 was 87%, completing data from 50,528 households, where 96 031 individual interviews selected by age and 14,104 of ambulatory Health services users were also obtained. The probabilistic design of the NHNS 2012 as well as its coverage allowed to generate inferences about Health and Nutrition conditions, Health programs coverage, and access to Health services. Because of their complex designs, all estimations from the NHNS 2012 must use the survey design: weights, primary sampling units, and stratus variables.

  • the prevalence of urinary incontinence among community dwelling men results from the national Health and Nutrition examination survey
    The Journal of Urology, 2006
    Co-Authors: Jennifer T Anger, Christopher S Saigal, Lynn Stothers, David H Thom, Larissa V Rodriguez, Mark S Litwin
    Abstract:

    Purpose: Population based studies estimate that a large proportion of adult women report urinary incontinence. However, there is a wide range of estimates of the burden posed by UI. To measure the prevalence of incontinence in women in the community we analyzed data from women responding to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.Materials and Methods: NHANES is a series of Health and Nutrition surveys performed by the National Center for Health Statistics. From 1999 to 2000 NHANES asked a national sample of community dwelling women, “In the past 12 months, have you had difficulty controlling your bladder, including leaking small amounts of urine when you cough or sneeze (exclusive of pregnancy or recovery from childbirth)?” Questionnaire results were recorded and analyzed with respect to demographic data including age, race and level of education.Results: The overall prevalence of urinary incontinence in women was 38%. The prevalence of daily incontinence increased with age, ranging from 12....

  • national Health and Nutrition examination survey sample design 2011 2014
    Vital and health statistics. Series 2 Data evaluation and methods research, 2014
    Co-Authors: Clifford L Johnson, Sylvia M Dohrmann, Vicki L Burt, Leyla Mohadjer
    Abstract:

    Background Data collection for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) consists of a household screener, an interview, and a physical examination. The screener primarily determines whether any household members are eligible for the interview and examination. Eligibility is established using preset selection probabilities for the desired demographic subdomains. After an eligible sample person is selected, the interview collects person-level demographic, Health, and Nutrition information, as well as information about the household. The examination includes physical measurements, tests such as hearing and dental examinations, and the collection of blood and urine specimens for laboratory testing. Objectives This report provides some background on the NHANES program, beginning with the first survey cycle in the 1970s and highlighting significant changes since its inception. The report then describes the broad design specifications for the 2011-2014 survey cycle, including survey objectives, domain and precision specifications, and operational requirements unique to NHANES. The report also describes details of the survey design, including the calculation of sampling rates and sample selection methods. Documentation of survey content, data collection procedures, estimation methods, and methods to assess nonsampling errors are reported elsewhere.

  • the national Health and Nutrition examination survey sample design 1999 2006

    Co-Authors: Margaret D Carroll, Clifford L Johnson, Sylvia M Dohrmann, Leyla Mohadjer, Lester R Curtin, Lisa B Mirel, Rosemarie Hirsch, Deanna Kruszanmoran, Jill M Montaquila, Susan E Schober
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND Data collection for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) comprises three levels: a household screener, an interview, and a physical examination. The primary objective of the screener is to determine whether any household members are eligible for the interview and examination. Eligibility is determined by the preset selection probabilities for the desired demographic subdomains. After selection as an eligible sample person, the interview collects person-level demographic, Health, and Nutrition information as well as information about the household. The examination includes physical measurements, tests such as eye and dental examinations, and the collection of blood and urine specimens for laboratory testing. OBJECTIVES This report will first describe the broad design specifications for the 1999-2006 survey including survey objectives, domain and precision specifications, operational requirements, sample design, and estimations procedures. Details of the sample design are divided into two sections. The first section (NHANES 1999-2001 Sample Design) broadly describes the sample design and various design changes during the first three years of the continuous NHANES (1999-2001). The second section (NHANES 2002-2006 Sample Design) describes the final sample design developed and applied for 2002-2006. Weighting and variance estimation procedures are presented in the same manner; however, to correspond to the public data release cycles, the weighting and variance sections are separated into those used for 1999-2002, and those used for 2003-2006. Much of this report is based on survey operations documents and sample design reports prepared by Westat. Documentation of the survey content, procedures, and methods to assess nonsampling errors are reported elsewhere.
