These tables contains data collected on 6501 children under 5 years of age during a baseline survey in west Uganda prior to implementation of the inSCALE c-RCT in the site. Data were collected between May and August 2011. Data include household socio-economic data, child characteristics, illness in the previous two weeks, care seeking, costs of care seeking and treatments received.
Two data tables have been created:
1. Master table with 1 child per row (6501 rows)
2. A 'long' table with 1 illness condition per row (if child had more than one illness defined, one row is created for each illness) (5057 - only sick children included hence lower total)

| Description of data capture | Data was collected by trained field technicians who visited a list of households pre-selected from a sampling frame provided by the study epidemiologist. Data on socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of households, symptoms of the most recent illness episode in children under 5 years of age in the two weeks preceding the survey, care seeking behaviour, treatments received and details of all the self-reported out-of-pocket costs associated with care seeking for the episode of illness, were collected from the primary carer. The survey questionnaires were based on Demographic Health Survey (DHS)/Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) child health and heath economics survey instruments used extensively in low and middle income countries |
