In a subcenter population, Crude bih rate(CBR) is 20. What is the minimum expected number of pregnancies registered with ANM?
Correct Answer: 55
Description: Total subcenter population= 5000 In the given question, Total CBR= 20 per 1000 mid-year population So, for 5000 population, expected number of bihs in a year = 20/1000 * 5000= 100 bihs. Now since, Aboions and still bihs account for 10% of wasted pregnancies. So, expected number of total pregnancies in 1 year= 100+(10% of 100) = 100+10 = 110 pregnancies As per thumb rule , ANM should have atleast 50% pregnancies registered with her. Hence, total minimum expected registered pregnancies with ANM= 50% of 110= 55 Ref: Park 25th edition Pgno: 559
