Data from the District Level Household Survey (2002) conducted by the Reproductive and Child Health Project in India has been used to examine the impact of utilization of antenatal care services on improvement in maternal health in rural areas of Uttar Pradesh, India. Multilevel analysis shows that after controlling for other socioeconomic and demographic factors, utilization of antenatal care services may lead to the utilization of other maternal health related services such as institutional delivery, delivery assisted by trained professionals, seeking advice for pregnancy complications, and seeking advice for post-delivery complications. There is strong clustering of utilization of services within the primary sampling units (i.e. villages) and districts.
印度生殖与儿童健康项目开展的地区级家庭调查（2002年）的数据，已被用于研究印度北方邦农村地区产前护理服务的利用情况对孕产妇健康改善的影响。多层次分析表明，在控制了其他社会经济和人口因素之后，产前护理服务的利用可能会促使人们利用其他与孕产妇健康相关的服务，如机构分娩、由专业人员协助分娩、就孕期并发症寻求建议以及就产后并发症寻求建议。在初级抽样单位（即村庄）和地区内，服务利用情况存在很强的聚集性。
