A cloud-based, biometric-linked software platform was used for positive identification, and record keeping.
Reminders Alone
Reminders alone: Automated reminders (text and /or voice in local language) for upcoming vaccination visit(s) will be provided via cell-phone to the subject (mother / caregiver). A cloud-based, biometric-linked software platform was used for positive identification, and record keeping.
Reminders + Compliance-linked Incentives
Reminders alone: Automated reminders (text and /or voice in local language) for upcoming vaccination visit(s) will be provided via cell-phone to the subject (mother / caregiver). Compliance-linked incentives: Automated compliance-linked incentives (as cell-phone minutes) will be provided via cell-phone to the subject (mother / caregiver). A cloud-based, biometric-linked software platform was used for positive identification, and record keeping.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: The events analyzed here are the total number of vaccines rather than subjects in each cohort. The outcome measure is the percent of the number of vaccines that were administrated in a timely manner divided by the total number of scheduled vaccines.

The percent of immunizations administered before or within 14 days after the scheduled date for the immunization. Calculated for each cohort.
