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 ...

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2016
Abstract This paper is about infant mortality. In line with reliability theory, “infant” refers to the time interval following birth during which the mortality (or failure) rate decreases. This definition provides a systems science perspective in which birth constitutes a sudden transition falling within the field of application of the Transient ...

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 ...

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1957
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.

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 ...
