Listed in Corporacion Ecuatoriana para el Desarrollo de la Investigacion y la Academia (CEDIA)
Description
Summary
This dataset was generated as part of a study evaluating the feasibility, challenges, and outcomes of an active, door-to-door case-finding strategy for childhood developmental delay and motor impairment in an underserved urban sector of Cuenca, Ecuador (September 2022 – March 2023). The purpose of data collection was to identify children aged 2 months to 12 years with suspected developmental delay or motor impairment, including those excluded from official statistics (e.g., undocumented, homebound, or migratory families).
