Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study collected information regarding the factors that might influence access of pregnant women to the local healthcare system. The main visits of the study screened \& enrollment, delivery and 90 day infant follow-up. Data were collected mainly from questionnaires administered to pregnant women at these visits. The questionnaires contained the following standard questions which were asked at each visit, in addition to some visit-specific questions related to delivery and health status of infants up to 90 days of age. The standard questions related to the following aspects:

* Logistics of transportation to the study site (type, time it takes, cost incurred)
* Accessibility to a telephone/cell phone
* Provisions of alternative child care during site visits if there are other children under the subject's care
