## Abstract

Abstract
 Component A: Core Surveillance
Nevada Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS): RFA-DP-16-
001
Abstract
Existing data suggests that Nevada’s maternal and infant health outcomes are
unfavorable compared to the healthy people 2020 benchmarks. Datasets such as vital
records provide limited data to explore the associated risk factors to these outcomes.
Nevada does not have a comprehensive system to monitor changes and trends to guide
program activities, health policy, and resource allocation. A population-based
surveillance such as PRAMS will enable our state to develop and implement
surveillance activities of high scientific quality on selected maternal attitudes, behaviors
and experiences that occur before, during, and after pregnancy. Nevada PRAMS data
will help to understand the reasons for not breastfeeding, and determine the prevalence
of domestic/intimate partner violence, postpartum depression, and contraceptive use.
PRAMS data will be used to inform programs and improve systems of care for mothers
and children.
