Abstract: Objectivos: propor um método para estimação do Coeficiente de Mortalidade Infantil (CMI) por município, levando em consideração a subenumeração de óbitos e a estimação do CMI em áreas de pequeno porte populacional. Métodos: o método foi desenvolvido a partir da estimação de fatores de correção de óbitos e nascidos vivos por município, no triênio 2009-2011, através de indicadores construídos para caracterizar a cobertura das informações vitais.

“…Considering that the correction factor is based on the level of coverage, the methodology of correction by municipality can be updated annually. The Proactive Search of Deaths survey, referring to deaths occurred in 2012 but that were not reported to the SIM, also enabled the assessment of data quality in municipalities of the North and Northeast regions and validated the adequacy criteria previously proposed, now taking into consideration the municipality population size 17 . In the present study, these criteria were improved to estimate infant mortality by municipality.…”

“…Age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) were calculatedusing 2010 Brazilian population as the standard population and then split into six categories: <2 per 1,000 inhabitants, >= 2 and <3, >= 3 and <4, >= 4 and <5, >= 5 and <5.5, and >= 5.5 per 1000 inhabitants 14 . Infant mortality rate was classified as adequate or inadequate 17 . In each stratum, 6 to 7 municipalities were randomly selected.…”

“…The second criterion used to characterize the adequacy of the mortality information of the municipality was based on the underreporting of infant deaths. The municipality was classified as inadequate in relation to infant deaths when the number reported was lower than the minimum expected number, estimated by the product between half of the Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) of the UF and the estimated number of live births in the municipality 14 .…”
