Postnatal infection surveillance by telephone in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania: An observational cohort study.

Introduction: Maternal and newborn infections are important causes of mortality but morbidity data from low- and middle-income countries is limited. We used telephone surveillance to estimate infection incidence and risk factors in women and newborns following hospital childbirth in Dar es Salaam.

Methods: We recruited postnatal women from two tertiary hospitals and conducted telephone interviews 7 and 28 days after delivery.
