Младенческая смертность в Московской области: анализ ситуации, основные тенденции, перспективы снижения

Abstract

The analytic data on monitoring infant mortality in the Moscow region and an analysis of its causes in 2019, 2020 and 2021 are presented on the article. The early neonatal period accounts for 25–29% of all infant deaths. The late neonatal period accounts for 22–26%. At the age of 1 month to a year are 50% of all infant deaths. No trend was found in changing the age structure within 3 years. There is a decrease in infant mortality by 16.4% in 2021 compared to 2019. The causes of death of children are estimated, among which certain conditions that occur in the perinatal period are in the lead. The steady decline in infant mortality, including in the most significant group of newborns, is due to the development of the neonatological service in the Moscow region within the framework of a three-level system for organizing medical care for women and children. Newly opened perinatal centers had an impact on the reduction of neonatal mortality in the Moscow region. Key words: neonatology, perinatology, infant mortality, post-neonatal period
