    Overview
    Abstract
    First established in September 2010 as a pilot surveillance site in Idundu Ward of Akpabuyo Local Government Area (LGA), Cross River State, Nigeria; the Cross River HDSS began full operations in November 2012 with two Demographic Surveillance Area (DSA) sites (urban and rural). As at mid-Year 2016, the two sites comprised a combined population of 33,461 in 8,344 households. The rural site covers a number of contiguous communities from Edet Nsa, Eneyo South, Ikot Eyo, and Ikot Nakanda wards of the Akpabuyo LGA; while the urban cohort has some communities from the Ikot Ansa and Ikot Ishie localities of Calabar Municipality. The rural and urban sites are further delineated into 46 and 43 contiguous Enumeration Areas (EAs) respectively. Calabar Municipal, with an area of 142km2, is located between latitude 4° 15' and 5° North and longitude 8° 25' and 8° 30' East with average elevation of 98m above sea level. The city majorly comprises of the Qua and Efik ethnic groups. Similarly, Akpabuyo LGA, spanning an area of 1241km2, lies between latitude 4° 5' and 5° 40' North and longitude 8° 25' and 8° 32' East. In addition to the Qua and Efik found in Calabar Municipal, Akpabuyo LGA also has the Efut ethnic group. Both sites are situated in the tropical rain forest belt of southern Nigeria, with an annual rainfall in the range of 2500mm to 3000mm and mean annual temperature of 30°C.

    The primary purpose for which the Cross River HDSS was established is to help fill the void created by near absence of reliable mechanisms for obtaining community-based data into the national health information and vital registration systems. This has been sustained as the main organizational goal of the Cross River HDSS, which is to generate timely and reliable data on health, demographic and socioeconomic indicators at community level, to inform health policy and planning at LGA, State and National levels. Data collection is done predominantly with mobile technology. Categories of data collected include household-level data on socioeconomic status, individual demographics (age, sex, level of education, work status, education and marital status), pregnancies, births, migrations, deaths and verbal autopsy. We also collect data on immunization, breastfeeding and prevalent childhood illnesses including malaria, diarrhoea and respiratory infections; as well as risk factors and care-seeking related to reproductive health and non-communicable diseases such as blood pressure and anthropometric assessments. All data is stored in the Cross River HDSS database running on MySQL server and accessed by authorized users through the OpenHDS open source web application. Data is exported in CSV and related formats for analysis. Data analysis is done with the R Software for Statistical Computing, EPI Info and STATA.
