Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1993
Infant mortality continues to be a major public health issue in the United States. Although some preventive strategies for neonatal mortality are emerging for congenital malformations, notably neural tube defects, the prevention of preterm deliveries among disadvantaged populations remains elusive, suggesting the need for different approaches to women ...

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1952
IN RECENT years much has been done to lower the mortality rate of children. Today fewer children die of infection and other preventable disease than in the past. The rate of deaths due to prematurity has remained high, however, and has not kept pace with the general downward trend in infant death rates.

In this issue ofAJDC, Alo et al1report their efforts to determine the causes of the high mortality rate of black infants in the United States. They matched birth and death certificates and found that the causes of the high infant mortality rate from 1980 to 1989 among blacks in Illinois fell into three categories: complications of preterm birth ...

Summary 1. Survival rates for premature infantsat the University of Virginia Hospital for the years 1949–1955 are presented. 2. Prematurity remains the major cause of death. 3. Advances in controlling infection and hemorrhage have resulted in a more optimistic outlook for the survival of the premature infant.

Scientific American, 1985
PIP: The speed of decline of the US infant mortality rate diminished markedly to 2.7% (10.6 deaths) in 1984, and the likelihood that the goal of an infant mortality rate of 9 will be reached by 1990 is less likely. A definite change that took place not long before the rate of decline flattened out was the reduction by the Reagan Administration in the ...

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Canada, 2009
Canada's infant mortality rates appear to be worsening, but this may be due, at least in part, to inconsistencies in registration of births at the edge of viability, variations in international practices for reporting live births, and related factors. There are striking differences in reported infant mortality rates among provinces and territories and ...

What is the ...

Perinatal and infant mortality
Medical Journal of Australia, 1985Australias infant mortality rate fell below 10/1000 live births for the 1st time in 1983 (9.6/1000). Internationally Australia ranks 12th in infant mortality among countries with populations over 2.5 million. Contributing to this relatively poor international standing has been the high incidence of low birthweight infants high postneonatal mortality ...

Infant mortality and illegitimacy
Social Science & Medicine, 1992Abstract The changing rate of infant mortality over time in the U.S.A. from 1940 to 1986 and the variation in the infant mortality rate over the states were both found to be associated with the illegitimacy rates.
