The Survey Solutions software developed by the World Bank was used for data collection [37]. Survey Solutions can operate in mixed mode, and data can be collected offline on tablets (computer-assisted personal interviewing), on the web using a web interface (computer-assisted web interviewing), or via phone interviews (computer-assisted web interviewing). Data from the hospital surveillance instrument will be linked to the follow-up data through a unique participant ID. Android-based devices are used to collect, store, and transfer hospital-based and follow-up data. The collected data are transmitted to the survey headquarters for real-time quality control and analysis. The software works offline in areas with limited internet access and later synchronizes data once the internet access is available.
