8 OPERATION DEFINITION Developing world - Countries which haven't advanced much in terms of industries and machine power and have low gross domestic per capita. Lifestyle - This refers to the way people live either as a community or as an individual in terms of personal or community hygiene, habits, behaviour, social values, attitudes and activities or practices. The way that people live has significant impact on health. Risky lifestyle therefore would include for example excessive drug use and abuse during pregnancy. Preterm labor - This is labor which occurs before 36 weeks of gestation are over either spontaneously or induced. Small for Gestation Age - This refers to an infant who is born after the due date (36 weeks) but height and weight are below expected range. Vlll

10 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Low birth weight (L.B.W) continues to be a major public health concern. This is because L.B.W children are placed at risk for neuro-sensory, developmental, physical and psychological problem. Much of the L.B.W infants are due to preterm labor or Intra Uterine Growth Retardation! Restriction (I.UG.R) or a combination of both. This study therefore aims at establishing the factors contributing to L.B. W In women of reproductive age in Mathare slums, and to secondarily offer recommendations on how to reduce the prevalence of L.B.W. The study area is Mathare slums, located to the North Western side, about 10km from the Central Business District (C.B.D) Nairobi. Mathare has a population of about 500,000 Inhabitants. The study subjects will be mothers with infants (0-2 yrs) who were born with L.B.W. A total of 198 subjects will be selected using purposive sampling method. This is a casual comparative study where data will be collected by use of Self-administered questionnaire. Five Batchelor of science in nursing students (BScN) will be used as research assistants who will be trained on implementation of the tool. The BScN will be guided by six Mathare slum residents. Bar graphs, pie charts, chi-squares T-Test will be used during data analysis and presentation. Pre-testing of the study tool will be done in Mukuru Kwa Njenga slums to ensure the clarity of the questions. The study will take an average of six months with a projected total budget of Kshs. 277, x
