= maternity care and routine newborn care scores/sick newborn care score.

A test score of 0 = 0% correct, a score of 1.0 = 100% correct.

Facility size: number of admissions 1st June 2014–30th June 2015 of maternity patient (small <350, medium 350–1000, large 1001–3000, very large >3000) for maternity care and routine newborn care scores and the number of neonatal patient (small <50, medium 50–100, large 101–900, very large >900) admissions for sick newborn care score.

p‐Values are for unadjusted linear regression, the unit of observation is the facility. p‐values <0.05 are indicated in bold.

a

p‐Values are for log(admission numbers) as a continuous variable.

b

p‐Values are for scores as continuous variables.
