The impact of changing health indicators on infant mortality rates in Brazil, 2000 and 2005

Abstract: Improving access to prenatal care, increasing public expenditure on health, and access to sanitation and water supply were all independently correlated to declining IMR; however, higher rates of cesarean deliveries were associated with higher late neonatal mortality rates. Continuous collection and analysis of relevant health indicators is recommended for developing evidence-based health policies and accurate predictions of how specific public health interventions might impact IMR.

“…Despite the wide range of studies on the epidemiology of mortality in the Brazilian population 4,5,6,7,8,9,10 , there are still few contributions that focus on indigenous mortality, especially considering the country's diversity of ethnic groups (over two hundred) 11,12,13,14,15,16 . The relatively recent inclusion of the option indígena as a possible answer to the question on "race/color" in the data collection forms used in the national health information system 11 and national censuses 17 and the limited coverage and quality of the specific information system for indigenous peoples 18 create further difficulties and challenges for characterizing the mortality pattern of indigenous people in Brazil.…”
