    As nutrition community is focusing on Stunting and Window of Opportunity (1000 days)
    Women of childbearing age are increasingly considered by SMART surveys.

    We are calculating manually this death rates in a recent survey, but we don’t know how to calculate the IC95% formula for this women death rates?

    As Under 5 years-child Death Rates (mortality sub-population) is considered by ENA, would you validate this new sub-population death rates?
    Could it be interesting to integrate this in the next ENA version?

    Thanks

    Currently in ENA you are able to select age ranges for mortality analysis, so if you change the age ranges to apply to women of childbearing age you will get the death rates and associated confidence intervals, overall and by sex.

    As with U5 Death Rates (and other mortality sub-populations) you must interpret results with caution seeing as though your n (sample size) will be smaller and you will have wider confidence intervals.
