In order to provide essential scientific evidence on the population's health status and social health determinants as well as the current capacity of the health care system in Vietnam to health policy makers and managers, Vietnam Ministry of Health, Hanoi University of Public Health, Hanoi Medical University, and Ho Chi Minh University of Medicine and Pharmacy collaborated with Seoul National University (Korea) and conducted a health system survey in the Quoc Oai district (of Hanoi capital) that represented northern rural Vietnam.
The study design was a cross-sectional study. The survey covered different topics (more than 200 questions) and was administered in three separate questionnaires: 1) Basic information of all household members; 2) Household characteristics; and 3) Individual characteristics. Socio-demographic characteristics among the households and individuals were collected from 2,400 households sampled by multi-stage cluster sampling method: more than 200 questions.
The household size of Quoc Oai was larger than the national average and there was no significant difference in gender composition. In addition, the proportions of pre-elderly, age 55-64, and elderly group (65 years old and over) were higher than the national population statistics. In this context, demographic transition has begun in Quoc Oai.
This study design description provides the basic information about a baseline survey of a future prospective cohort (as a part of a collaborative project on strengthening the health system in Vietnam) to the prospective data user of this survey.
为了向卫生政策制定者和管理者提供有关越南人口健康状况和社会健康决定因素以及越南医疗保健系统当前能力的重要科学证据，越南卫生部、河内公共卫生大学、河内医科大学和胡志明医科大学与首尔国立大学（韩国）合作，在代表越南北部农村地区的首都河内的国立奥区进行了一项卫生系统调查。
研究设计为横断面研究。该调查涵盖了多个主题（超过 200 个问题），并通过三个单独的问卷进行管理：1）所有家庭成员的基本信息；2）家庭特征；和 3）个人特征。通过多阶段聚类抽样方法从 2400 户家庭中抽取样本，收集了家庭和个人的社会人口特征：超过 200 个问题。
国立奥区的家庭规模大于全国平均水平，性别构成无显著差异。此外，前老年人、55-64 岁和老年人（65 岁及以上）的比例高于全国人口统计数据。在这种情况下，国立奥区已经开始人口转型。
本研究设计描述为未来前瞻性队列（作为加强越南卫生系统合作项目的一部分）的基线调查向该调查的潜在数据用户提供了基本信息。
