This poster was presented at the Third Global Symposium on Health Systems Research in Cape Town and discusses challenges to recording and reporting the uptake of intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy (IPTp) in Uganda. Our study found that health workers perceive data recording and reporting as a routine part of their work and believed facility-level data to be generally accurate. However, a document and record review revealed widespread inaccuracies with regard to antenatal care and IPTp indicators.
