94 Catalog of Indicators Health Priority: Yes Indicator developed: Yes Local/International: Kind of indicator: Outcome Data source/s: Guideline on construction on core indicators. Challenges: Contraceptive prevalence is generally estimated from nationally representative sample survey data. Differences in the survey design and implementation, as well as differences in the way survey questionnaires are formulated and administered can affect the comparability of the data. The most common differences relate to the range of contraceptive methods included and the characteristics (age, sex, marital or union status) of the persons for whom contraceptive prevalence is estimated (base population). The time frame used to assess contraceptive prevalence can also vary. In most surveys there is no definition of what is meant by “currently using” a method of contraception. When data on contraceptive use among married or in-‐union women aged 15 to 49 are not available, information on contraceptive prevalence for the next most comparable group of persons is reported. Illustrations of base populations that are sometimes presented are: sexually active women (irrespective of marital status), ever-‐married women, or men and women who are married or in union. When information on current use is not available, data on use of contraceptive methods at last sexual intercourse or during the previous year are utilized. Footnotes are employed to indicate any differences between the data presented and the standard definition of contraceptive prevalence. In some surveys, the lack of probing questions, asked to ensure that the respondent understands the meaning of the different contraceptive methods, can result in an underestimation of contraceptive prevalence, in particular for non-‐traditional methods. Sampling variability can also be an issue, especially when contraceptive prevalence is measured for a specific subgroup (according to method, age-‐group, level of educational attainment, place of residence, etc) or when analyzing trends over time. [2] Linked to policy: MDG and Local Health strategic plan Other comments: It would be desirable to have data disaggregated by age, marital status, area (rural/urban).
Catalog of Indicators Health 95 Name of indicator: Abortion rateDefinition: Abortion rate represent the number of induced abortion in a given year expressed as rate per 1000 women in reproductive age. [2]Induced abortion is a deliberate termination of a pregnancy before the foetus has attained viability. [3]Description: The indicators provide useful measure in evaluating contraceptive service either for determining baseline or for measuring the progress. It can also be used to assess contraceptive method and user effectiveness, as well as access to services.[1][2] Sector: HealthSubsector: Reproductive rights. Family planning.

At http://www.cpc.unc.edu/measure/prh/rh_indicators/specific/womens-‐nutrition/percent-‐of-women-‐of-‐reproductive-‐age-‐with-‐anemiaUnit of measuring: PercentFormula: Ar =AiPf 15−49×10000 Formula explained: To calculate abortion rate, it requires total number of induced abortions occurring in a given year or reference period and the enumerated or estimated mid-‐period female population for the same period. In the formula: Ar=Abortion Rate, Ai=Total number of induced abortions, Pf (15-‐49)=Total number of female population age 15-‐49.
