The Kaya Health and Demographic Surveillance System (Kaya HDSS) is located in the North Central region of Burkina Faso in the Kaya health district. The main purposes of the Kaya HDSS are to study demographic, infectious and chronic disease indicators in the district, to observe changes in health over time, evaluate health programmes and to provide a basis for policy decisions and capacity building in order to enhance the health of the community. Kaya HDSS was established in late 2007 following a baseline census of the population of the HDSS area. Homes were visited every 6 months to collect demographic information and data on morbidity and mortality. A verbal autopsy questionnaire is used to collect information on the causes of death. The Kaya HDSS reached 64,480 residents in 10,587 households by the end of 2011, with an average of 6.1 ± 4.3 persons per household. The site is 70% urban and 30% rural. The population is 51.8% female. Over 55% of deaths occur outside health facilities. Malaria is the leading cause of death, primarily affecting children under 5 years of age (44%) and those 5 to 14 years old (36%). The Kaya HDSS data can be obtained by sending a request via the HDSS website (http://kaya-hdss.org/).
卡亚健康和人口监测系统（Kaya HDSS）位于布基纳法索中北部的卡亚卫生区。该系统的主要目的是研究该地区人口统计学、传染病和慢性病指标，观察健康状况随时间的变化，评估卫生计划，并为政策决策和能力建设提供基础，以增强社区的健康。卡亚 HDSS 于 2007 年末在对 HDSS 地区的人口进行基线普查后建立。每 6 个月家访一次，收集人口统计学信息以及发病率和死亡率数据。使用一份死因推断问卷收集死亡原因信息。截至 2011 年底，卡亚 HDSS 共覆盖了 10587 户 64480 名居民，每户平均有 6.1 ± 4.3 人。该地点 70%为城市，30%为农村。人口中 51.8%为女性。超过 55%的死亡发生在医疗机构之外。疟疾是主要死因，主要影响 5 岁以下儿童（44%）和 5 至 14 岁儿童（36%）。可通过向 HDSS 网站（http://kaya-hdss.org/）发送请求来获取卡亚 HDSS 数据。
