In a ceain population, there were 4050 bihs in the last one year. There were 50 stillbihs. 50 infants died within 7 days whereas 150 died within 28 days. What is the Neonatal moality rate?
High-Yield Explanation
Total number of bihs in one year = 4050No. of still bihs in that year = 50Hence, the total number of live bihs in that year would be4050 - 504000Total number of infants dying in the first 7 days = 50 Total number of infants dying in the next 21 days = 150Hence, the total number of infants dying in the first 28 days of bih= 50 + 150 Now,Neonatal moality rate = number of neonatal deaths x 1000 / Total number of live bihs = 200 x 1000 / 4000 = 50
