Data analysis of structured tools

Several indicators were compared across study arms: (1) the proportion of facilities submitting a provider practice log following HMS and HBB and the combined practice period, (2) the mean number of practice sessions and 95% confidence interval per month per provider over 2-month periods (July–August, September–October, and November–December) for each type of training content², (3) the total number of practice sessions per provider (for HMS and HBB combined, over the project duration) was calculated at the facility level, and the mean for all facilities, (4) the mean and 95% confidence interval of total practice sessions per provider stratifying by the following factors: (a) higher (above the total mean) or lower documented practice, (b) higher level of facility (hospital or health center IV) or lower level, (c) study arms with a practice coordinator (study arms 2 and 3), or study arm 1. All quantitative data analysis was completed using Stata version 15.
