2018. Title V data integration use case: Developmental screening. Washington, DC: Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs, 13 pp.

Annotation: This report outlines a use case for Title V programs to leverage Early Childhood Integrated Data Systems (ECIDS) to analyze developmental screening data for children from birth through age 5. The document is part of the Title V Data Integration Toolkit and focuses on two key questions: how many children are receiving developmental screenings using parent-completed tools, and how many are achieving five-domain developmental health based on these screenings. The document provides detailed guidance on analytic considerations, including the importance of defining which screening tools to analyze, understanding data sources within the ECIDS, and determining how to handle multiple screenings for individual children. A comprehensive list of recommended data elements is provided, including child identifiers, demographic information, and screening-related data. Examples of data visualization are provided using fictitious data, showing how to present overall screening rates and breakdowns by age categories.
