Malaria Indicator Survey 2017 MIS / MMIS 2017 MWI_2017_MIS_v01_M National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) ICF Nesstar Publisher Government of Malawi United States Agency for International Development Information about The DHS Program General Inquiries Data and Data Related Resources Demographic and Health Survey, Special [hh/dhs-sp] The Malaria Indicator Survey (MIS) was developed by the Monitoring and Evaluation Working Group (MERG) of Roll Back Malaria, an international partnership developed to coordinate global efforts to fight malaria. A stand-alone household survey, the MIS collects national and regional or provincial data from a representative sample of respondents. The 2017 Malawi Malaria Indicator Survey (MMIS), a comprehensive, nationally-representative household survey, was designed in accord with the Roll Back Malaria Monitoring and Evaluation Working Group (RBM-MERG) guidelines. The primary objective of the 2017 MMIS project is to provide up-to-date estimates of basic demographic and health indicators related to malaria. Specifically, the 2017 MMIS collected information on mosquito nets, intermittent preventive treatment of malaria in pregnant women (IPTp), and care seeking behaviour and treatment of fever in children. Young children were also tested for anaemia and for malaria infection. Knowledge of malaria was assessed among interviewed women. The information collected through the 2017 MMIS is intended to assist policy makers and program managers in evaluating and designing programs and strategies for improving the health of the country’s population. Malawi National coverage Sample survey data [ssd] National Malaria Control Programme Face-to-face [f2f] Data was primarily collected using three types of questionnaires: the Household Questionnaire, the Woman’s Questionnaire, and the Biomarker Questionnaire. A spreadsheet containing all sampling parameters and selection probabilities was constructed to facilitate the calculation of sampling weights. Household sampling weights and individual sampling weights were obtained by adjusting the previous calculated weight to compensate household nonresponse and individual nonresponse, respectively. These weights were further normalized at the national level to produce unweighted cases equal to weighted cases for both households and individuals at the national level. The normalized weights are valid for estimation of proportions and means at any aggregation levels, but not valid for estimation of totals. A total of 3,750 households were selected for the sample, of which 3,735 were occupied at the time of fieldwork. Among the occupied households, 3,729 were successfully interviewed, yielding a total household response rate of 99.8%. In the interviewed households, 3,861 eligible women were identified as eligible for individual interview, and 3,860 women were successfully interviewed, yielding a response rate of 100%.
