- Abstract
Objectives: to estimate the coverage of the Live Births Information System (SINASC) and the contribution of potential sources of information in a sample of municipalities in the mesoregion of Jequitinhonha, Minas Gerais, in 2008. Methods: the list of live births (LBs) reported to the SINASC was complemented by LBs located by an active search of registry offices, health units, social services departments, key informants in the communities, traditional midwives, churches, pharmacies and the records of municipal health departments. Coverage was calculated by comparing the number of LBs reported to the SINASC with the total after the active search.
