Sample was tested through different proportion of hypothesis, with the assumption that the asphyxia proportion decreased 50%, from (pI) 30%-40% before and (p2) 15-20% after the intervention. The number of samples was 215 and 264 cases for the baseline and evaluation survey. Data was complied using VA questionnaire, and the cause of death was classified according to ICD-10 and Wiggles worth.
