1
Existing neonatal mortality risk scores have primarily been developed for high-resource settings.
2
Whilst fetal and neonatal mortality is high, long-term survival is not impossible.
3
Background: Preterm birth is a major cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity.
4
Conclusions: ENC training for midwives reduced 7-day neonatal mortality rates in low-risk clinics.
5
A relatively high birth weight was also a determinant of early neonatal mortality.
6
Strengthening of lower level units contributed significantly in reducing neonatal mortality.
7
Background: Preterm birth is a known leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity.
8
The primary outcomes were incidence of neonatal omphalitis and neonatal mortality.
9
The US also ranked poorly among high-income countries on maternal, child and neonatal mortality.
10
Objective: Maternal and neonatal mortality is high in sub-Saharan Africa.
11
This covered indicators such as the neonatal mortality rate and the teenage birth rate.
12
Improved recognition and treatment of pSBI will reduce neonatal mortality.
13
The strongest determinant of early neonatal mortality was birth weight.
14
The primary outcome is neonatal mortality at 28 days of life in preterm infants.
15
The main cause of neonatal mortality was LBW, followed by sepsis and respiratory illness.
16
Results: The results showed both individual and community characteristics to be associated with neonatal mortality.
