GHA_2019_MIS_v01_M Malaria Indicator Survey 2019 MIS / GMIS 2019 Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) Ghana National Malaria Control Programme National Public Health and Reference Laboratory ICF Government of Ghana United States Agency for International Development Global Fund Metadata Editor Information about The DHS Program General Inquiries Data and Data Related Resources Malaria Indicator Survey [hh/mis] The 2019 Ghana Malaria Indicator Survey (2019 GMIS) is the second MIS conducted in Ghana, after the 2016 GMIS. In 2008 and 2014, Ghana implemented DHS surveys that also collected data on the primary household-level malaria indicators. The 2019 GMIS used a nationally representative sample of 200 clusters and about 6,000 selected households. The survey was designed to provide information on key malaria control indicators such as the proportion of households with at least one mosquito bed net and at least one insecticide-treated net (ITN), the proportion of children under age 5 who slept under a net the previous night and the proportion who slept under an ITN, the proportion of pregnant women who slept under a bed net the previous night and the proportion who received intermittent preventive treatment (IPT) for malaria during their most recent pregnancy in the last 2 years, and the prevalence of anaemia and malaria parasitemia among children under age 5. The data dictionary was generated from hierarchical data that was downloaded from the The DHS Program website (http://dhsprogram.com). Ghana National coverage The survey covered all de jure household members (usual residents), women age 15-49 years and children age 6-59 months resident in the household. Sample survey data [ssd] Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi] Four types of questionnaires were used for the 2019 GMIS: the Household Questionnaire, the Woman’s Questionnaire, the Biomarker Questionnaire, and the Fieldworker Questionnaire. The questionnaires were adapted to reflect issues relevant to Ghana. Modifications were determined after a series of meetings with various stakeholders from the NMCP and other government ministries and agencies, nongovernmental organisations, and international partners. The Household and Woman’s Questionnaires in English and four local Ghanaian languages (Akan, Dagbani, Ewe, and Ga) were programmed into tablet computers, which enabled the use of computer-assisted personal interviewing for the survey. The Biomarker Questionnaire, also translated into four local languages, was filled out on hard copy and entered into the CAPI system when complete.
