Characteristic 2003 KDHS <strong>2007</strong> <strong>KAIS</strong>QuestionnaireFocus on demographic,gender, fertility andreproductive healthquestions; administered inKiswahili, English and 12local languagesFocus on HIV/<strong>AIDS</strong> indicatorsincluding knowledge of selfand partner HIV status andutilization of HIV care andtreatment services;administered in Kiswahili,English and 12 locallanguagesHIV serologic testing Antibody only Antibody plus antigenType of blood drawDBS from finger prick onlyPrimarily venipuncture(0.92% provided DBS)Laboratory tests conductedHIV serologyHIV, HSV‐2 and syphilisserology and CD4 cell countsfor HIV‐infected persons(only HIV for personsproviding DBS)Access to HIV status andother <strong>STI</strong> testing resultsFree VCT vouchersprovided to access HIVtesting and referrals atmobile or stationary VCTsitesResults vouchers provided torespondents to access HIV,HSV‐2 and syphilis resultsand CD4 cell counts andreferrals at nearby facilitiesThe household sampling strategy was similar between surveys though sampling strategies forindividuals differed. In the 2003 KDHS, every other household selected was eligible for the men’sindividual interview and for a blood draw from eligible adults; this difference in sampling doesnot compromise comparability between the 2003 KDHS and the <strong>2007</strong> <strong>KAIS</strong> as the selection ofhouseholds in both surveys was random. While the 2003 KDHS covered a broader range ofdemographic and reproduction health measures, the <strong>2007</strong> <strong>KAIS</strong> focused mostly on HIV/<strong>AIDS</strong>indicators; thus there are notable differences in the types of questions asked. Where possible, thesame or similar wording was used for questions repeated from the 2003 KDHS to enhancecomparability. Training of the <strong>2007</strong> <strong>KAIS</strong> field teams was also similar to the training of the 2003KDHS field teams, and both questionnaires were administered in 11 different vernacularlanguages in addition to English and Kiswahili.Similar techniques for weighting were applied to datasets in the 2003 KDHS and in the <strong>2007</strong> <strong>KAIS</strong>;however, separate weights for women and men were calculated in 2003, given that samplingsystematically varied by sex in 2003. In the <strong>2007</strong> <strong>KAIS</strong>, women and men were sampled using thesame techniques; therefore the <strong>2007</strong> dataset did not require separate weights for women and men.<strong>KAIS</strong> <strong>2007</strong> 26
