List 32 n p Efficacy of interventions (stillbirths)


The efficacy editor for interventions related to maternal deaths shows the default values for the efficacy (the percent of deaths due to a specific cause that are reduced by the intervention) and affected fraction (the percent of deaths due to a specific cause which are potentially able to be impacted by a specific intervention) for each maternal or child health intervention. Please see the "Efficacy" help page for more information.

 

The tabs in this editor are organized by cause of death and display the default values by intervention.
