“…This route remains the most common in the absence of any obstetric complications that may indicate a caesarean section. Proportions very close to ours have been reported by other authors [15,16]. However, in Burkina Faso, a much higher rate of caesarean section was found [10].…”

Introduction: Neonatal morbidity and mortality is a major public health problem in developing countries such as Senegal. The objective of our study was to study the determinants of neonatal morbidity and mortality in a hospital located in the suburbs of Dakar in Senegal. Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective, descriptive and analytical study over the period from 1 January to 31 December 2019 (1 year). Results: Of the 1198 children hospitalized in the ward, all 500 were newborns. (incidence=41.7%). The sex ratio was 1.29. The most common maternal pathologies were hypertension, preeclampsia and diabetes. The notion of urogenital infection was reported in 21% of cases MPR was greater than 12 hours in 60% of cases. More than a quarter (27%) of newborns had not screamed at birth and 74% were resuscitated. Almost half of newborns (43%) were preterm infants. Hypotrophs accounted for 48% (n=202). Diagnoses on admission were dominated by infections neonatal, inhalation of amniotic fluid, hyaline membrane disease and perinatal asphyxia. The mortality rate was 19% (n=95). The most frequently found causes of death were related to prematurity (48.4%), respiratory distress (82%) and nosocomial infections (20%). Conclusion: Despite initiatives undertaken at the national level, statistics remain alarming and call for more efforts to be made to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

“…Pourtant, d'autres auteurs ont trouvé que les difficultés socioéconomiques déterminent la vulnérabilité aux maladies et la mortalité des couches défavorisées (Irie, 2002 ;Maiga & Bocquier, 2016). Les variations de la mortalité des enfants de moins de 5 ans d'un lieu à un autre (ou d'une époque à une autre) sont associées aux conditions socioéconomiques différentes entre eux (Moseley & Chen, 1984 ;Vallin, 1985 ;Antoine & Mbodji, 1991 ;Akoto, 1994 ;Tabutin & Gourbin, 1997 ;Barbieri & Catteau, 2003 ;Beninguissé et al, 2010 ;Djourdebbe, 2015).…”

The high mortality of children under-five is worrying. The World Summit for Children (1990) aimed to reduce by 1/3 its level from 1990 to 2000. Similarly, the Sustainable Development Goals for their part, aimed at a level of 25‰ at most by 2030. In Guinea, this mortality of children under-five remains high (108‰ in 2018). Previous studies have largely highlighted the main determinants of this mortality of children under-five, but their influence at different levels of analysis remains little known and documented. This study contributes to this by measuring the influence of individual, family and regional factors. The application of a multilevel logistic regression to data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (2018) shows that the individual factors (birth ranks, mother's level of education, ethnicity, age at childbirth), family factors (household standard of living) and regional factors (degree of ethnic heterogeneity, vaccination coverage and mothers' literacy) are significant in explaining this mortality.
