Neonatal mortality rate in Bangladesh is 24.20 deaths per 1000 live births in 2013 according to the World Bank. The leading causes of neonatal death in Bangladesh are perinatal asphyxia at 39% of deaths, preterm and low birth weight babies at 21% of deaths, and sepsis at 16% of deaths. High neonatal mortality is also attributed to social factors like illiteracy, ignorance, poverty, superstition and religious beliefs in Bangladesh.

The maternal mortality rate is the number of maternal deaths in a population divided by the number of women of reproductive age. It captures the likelihood of both becoming pregnant and dying during pregnancy (including deaths up to six weeks after delivery).

High risk approach in maternal and child healthShrooti Shah
High risk pregnancy is defined as one which is complicated by factor or factors that adversely affects the pregnancy outcome –maternal or perinatal or both.The risk factors may be pre-existing prior to or at the time of first antenatal visit or may develop subsequently in the ongoing pregnancy labour or puerperium.
Over 50 percent of all maternal complications and 60 percent of all primary caesarean sections arise from the high risk group of cases.

Trends in Maternal Mortality: 1990 to 2013 is jointly produced by WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA, The World Bank and the United Nations Population Division.
The new data show a 45 per cent reduction in maternal deaths since 1990. An estimated 289,000 women died in 2013 due to complications in pregnancy and childbirth, down from 523,000 in 1990.
While impressive, the average annual rate of reduction of 2.6 per cent is still less than half the 5.5 per cent rate needed to achieve the Millennium Development Goal 5 which calls for a three-quarters reduction in maternal mortality between 1990 and 2015.

1 of 4: Reducing Neonatal Mortality - Prevention, Early Detection and Treatme...JSI
This presentation by JSI's Leela Khanal, "Better Cord Care Saves Babies' Lives" was part of a dynamic panel moderated by JSI's Dr. Penny Dawson on February 13, 2015 at the 14th World Congress on Public Health in Kolkata, India. Four speakers summarized evidence for interventions proven to reduce newborn mortality (e.g., chlorhexidine) and shared important policy and programmatic experiences in prevention and treatment of neonatal infections. JSI's Leela Khanal and Dr. Nosa Orobaton spoke about experiences from Nepal and Nigeria in scaling up chlorhexidine use in those countries. Another speaker shared results from the COMBINE trial in Ethiopia, implemented primarily by JSI with support from SAVE/SNL, which evaluated the impact on neonatal mortality of health extension worker-led management of bacterial infections.
The 2010 Bangladesh Maternal Mortality and Health Care Survey (BMMS 2010), a major new Government of Bangladesh sponsored survey aimed at studying maternal mortality and its determinants, has revealed that maternal mortality fell 40 percent from the levels found in a similar, 2001 survey. This drop is a major achievement for Bangladesh and places her ahead of pace to achieve the Millennium Development Goal 5 target of reducing the maternal mortality ratio to 143 deaths per 100,000 live births by 2015.
Gap identification in birth asphyxia management among cmw's in dist rict hafi...Zubia Qureshi
Background: In Pakistan, Neonatal Mortality Rate (NMR) has remained static since 1994 (1). In early neonatal period approximately 82% deaths are attributed to Birth Asphyxia (2, 3). Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted to assess the CMWs knowledge regarding birth asphyxia in district Hafiz Abad, Pakistan. All the CMWs were included in the study, except those who were on leave in the study duration. Pre-structured questionnaire was used for this purpose. SPSS version 21 was used for analysis. Results: Response rate of this study is about 90%. Results showed that most of the CMWs i.e. 40 (72.7%) were below the age of 30 years, while 24 (40%) were married. Most of them 58.2% (32) had less than 3 years of experince as a community midwife. Regarding the diagnosis of Birth Asphyxia, 35 (63.6%) consider depressed breathing as sign of birth asphyxia. About 55% of the Community midwives took 30 minutes to resuscitate the baby. About 49% of them indicated that they use fetoscope to monitor the fetal heart rate. Age group and marital status of midwives found significantly associated with the proper diagnosis of Birth Asphyxia (P-value = <0.05). Cross tabulation results show that CMW’s age and marital status not significantly associated with time taken to manage the birth asphyxia (P-Value 0.164 and 0.141 respectively), while professional experience is significantly associated with it with p-value <0.001. Recommendations: There is need for continuous training of CMW’s in proper resuscitation and management skills of Birth Asphyxia. In addition, there is also a need to ensure the availability of resuscitating equipment’s and proper resources, so that the quality of proper neonatal care is ensured. Key words: Birth Asphyxia, Neonates, Mortality, Community midwives, Knowledge, Management.

Under Five Child Mortality Experience from Bangladeshijtsrd
Under five mortality rates is a key indicator for several development policies, targets and programs. However, relevant source of data on causes of death are not available in developing countries, including Bangladesh. Because sometimes the information is hidden with the various causes of risk. The main purpose of this study is to find out some different cases of child mortality with the various causes. The paper reveals that several characteristics socioeconomic, demographic, health related disease and non disease are affecting child mortality.

Editor's Notes
The Bellagio Child Survival Series (The Lancet 2003) identified newborn survival as a priority, lacking information and action
99% of newborn deaths are in developing countries - yet most information and investment is on high-tech solutions for the 1% of deaths in rich countries
The sheer numbers – every year 4 million babies die in the first 4 weeks of life – 10,000 a day and 40% of under 5 deaths
Despite large numbers of death, health of newborn babies was virtually absent from policies, programs, and research in the developing world
The new series presents new information and analysis regarding critical factors related to neonatal deaths, where and why newborns die and assessments of the effectiveness and costs of interventions for newborn care.
