1.9.3 HIV TestingIn the THMIS, HIV testing involved the collection of at least three blood spots from a fingerprick on a special filter paper card. The testing was anonymous, i.e., it was conducted in such fashionthat the results could not be linked to individual respondents. A unique random identification number(bar code) was assigned to each eligible respondent consenting to the testing. Labels containing thebar code were affixed to the filter paper card, the questionnaire, and a field tracking form at the timeof the collection of the sample. No other identifiers were attached to the dried blood spot (DBS)sample. Because of the anonymous nature of the testing approach in the THMIS, it was not possible toprovide information on the results from the HIV testing conducted during the THMIS.The procedures that THMIS field staff followed to obtain informed consent from eligibleindividuals to collect DBS samples for the HIV testing were similar to those used for obtainingconsent for the anaemia testing. The HIV testing consent statement explained the objective of thetesting and how the DBS sample would be collected. Prospective subjects were informed that thetesting process was anonymous and, therefore, their result would not be available to them, advisedthem of the availability of free voluntary counselling and testing services, and requested permissionfor the test to be carried out. Field staff also asked for consent to store the DBS samples forunspecified future tests.After the survey team completed a cluster, all questionnaires, dried blood spot samples, andsample transmittal forms for the cluster were sent to the NBS for logging and checking prior to dataentry. Blood samples were checked against the transmittal form and then forwarded to MUCHSLaboratory for testing. No identifying information other than the unique barcode label affixed at thetime of the collection of the DBS sample accompanied the specimen to the laboratory.1.10 DATA PROCESSINGAll questionnaires collected during the THMIS fieldwork were periodically brought from thefield to the NBS headquarters in Dar es Salaam for processing, which consisted of office editing,coding of open-ended questions, data entry, and editing of computer-identified errors. The data wereprocessed by a team of 9 data entry clerks, 2 data editors, and 2 data entry supervisors. Anadministrator was assigned to receive and check the blood samples coming from the field. Data entryand editing were accomplished using the CSPro software. All data were entered twice (100 percentverification). The concurrent processing of the data was a distinct advantage for data quality becauseTHMIS staff were able to advise the field teams of errors detected during data entry. The process ofoffice editing and data processing was initiated on 8 November 2007 and completed on 7 April 2008.Dried blood spot (DBS) samples received from the field were logged in at NBS, checked, andtransported to MUCHS for testing. The processing of DBS samples for HIV testing at MUCHS washandled by six laboratory scientists. The DBS samples were logged into the CSPro HIV Test TrackingSystem database, each given a laboratory number, and stored at -20°C until tested.1.11 RESPONSE RATESTable 1.1 shows response rates for the 2007-08 THMIS. A total of 9,144 households wereselected for the sample, from both Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar. Of these, 8,704 were found to beoccupied at the time of the survey. A total of 8,497 households were successfully interviewed,yielding a response rate of 98 percent. In the interviewed households, 9,735 women were identified aseligible for the individual interview. Completed interviews were obtained for 9,343 women, yielding aresponse rate of 96 percent. Of the 7,935 eligible men identified, 6,975 were successfully interviewed(88 percent response rate). Table 1.1 shows that the response rates for men were lower than those forwomen. The differential is likely due to the more frequent and longer absence of men from thehouseholds. The response rates for urban and rural areas do not vary much.Introduction | 7
