Post Neonatal Mortality Rates — Scotland

Scottish Medical Journal, 1989
Post Neonatal Mortality Rates in Scotland have been equal to those of North and South England since 1975. In this respect there is no longer any inequality in health. However, Social Class V still has a higher rate than Social Class 1 and the rate for illegitimates is the same as for Social Class V. As a result the illegitimate rate remains much higher

Neonatal mortality rate: Is further improvement possible?

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1995
To determine whether improvement in neonatal and infant mortality rates is possible or likely.Regional neonatal intensive care unit.Experience during a decade (1982-1991) was evaluated. We determined postnatal age at death and birth weight-specific and gestational age-specific mortality rates.

Why Are Stillbirth and Neonatal Mortality Rates Continuing to Fall?

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1985
Summary. The Office of Population Censuses and Surveys are producing new annual tabulations including one on population birthweight distribution, and birthweight/cause‐specific perinatal, neonatal and infant mortality rates. With these d a t a it will be easier to distinguish between falls in mortality rates due to primary prevention of the causes ...

Neonatal mortality rate: Relationship to birth weight and gestational age

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1998
A total of 2063 live births were studied during one year period from July 1994 to June 1995. Neonatal mortality rate (NMR) was 35.4 per thousand live births. The case fatality rate among low birth weight and preterms was 10.1% and 18.1% respectively.

An Analysis of Hospital Neonatal Mortality Rates in New York State

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1958
Writing in 1953, Clifford pointed out that neonatal mortality rates in the United States were still far from an "irreducible minimum" and that, in the experience of many teaching medical centers, rates of 14 per 1000 live births were attainable.1 Hospital obstetrics and nursery statistics appear to offer intriguing indices of medical care. However, as

Neonatal mortality rate: Relationship to birth weight and gestational age

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1972
Data on neonatal mortality rates, by birth weight and gestational age, are presented in a variety of ways to indicate their usefulness in everyday practice. The conventional rates by birth weight groupings have been useful in the past, but data by both birth weight and gestational age are necessary for evaluation of current perinatal practices ...

Contribution of Congenital Anomalies to Neonatal Mortality Rates in Malta

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, 2015
AbstractBackgroundNeonatal mortality is a public health concern, and congenital anomalies contribute significantly to this mortality. This paper describes trends in neonatal mortality in Malta separately for congenital anomaly and non‐congenital anomaly causes.MethodsData for neonatal deaths of 22‐week gestation onwards registered between 1994–2013 ...

Evaluation of Neonatal Mortality Rate and the Impact on Transparency

Journal of Pediatric Nursing, 2008
The purpose of this study was to determine potential causes of an unusually high neonatal mortality rate in a large Midwestern university hospital compared with its peer groups within the University HealthSystem Consortium (UHC). The data evaluated in this study were a combination of chart reviews and clinical data reports received from the UHC ...

Determinants of neonatal mortality rates in the U.S. A reduced form model. [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of health economics, 1984
The aim of this paper is to contribute to an understanding of the determinants of differences in race-specific neonatal mortality rates among large counties of the U.S. in 1977. After estimating cross-sectional regressions, we apply their coefficients to national trends in the exogenous variables to 'explain' the rapid decline in neonatal mortality ...
