Infant Mortality

       World IMR (2008)        = 49 per 1000
       MDCs IMR                     = 6 per 1000
       LDCs IMR                     = 54 per 1000

         China/Hong    Kong = 1.6

         Afghanistan= 163
         World Population Data Sheet (pg. 2)
Infant Mortality

       Why is it important to study?
        A   large % of all deaths occur among infants in
          high mortality countries
         It is a very sensitive event
           Responds    well to intervention
           It is an index of the general medical and public health
            conditions of a country
Infant Mortality

       Many deaths in this age group are preventable
         Low birth weight
         Jaundice

         Gastroenteritis

         Pneumonia

       and therefore IMR decreases dramatically as
        medical care is improved
       For this reason IMR is seen as an accurate
        indicator of development
       Healthy People 2010 goal: IMR = 4.5
