Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the Composite Coverage Index (CCI), which measures the effectiveness of maternal and child healthcare interventions in Guinea, showing an increase in optimal coverage from 43% in 2012 to 61% in 2018.
- Using demographic and health surveys, researchers analyzed data from women aged 15-49 and their children aged 1-4 to identify factors influencing CCI, including socioeconomic status and antenatal care visits.
- Results indicated lower optimal CCI probabilities for poorer women compared to wealthier ones, while those with planned pregnancies and more antenatal care visits had significantly higher chances of achieving optimal coverage.
