What causes of infant mortality rate?

Asked by Wiki User

Infant mortality is how many children die before the age of 5. It is measured by Amount of children dying per 1000 people.

A low infant mortality rate is common in more developed countries where health care and simple things such as diet are good.

However a high infant mortality rate would be common in underdeveloped countries which have bad health care and food is hard to get hold of. Generally countries in Africa will have a high infant mortality rate as the countries are poorer.

So a high/large infant mortality rate is basically a lot of children dying before the age of five per 1000 people.

  2. Turkey (23.07)*
  3. Kazakhstan (23.06)*
  4. Armenia (18.21)*

All numbers equal deaths per 1,000 births.

Every country listed above, with the exception of Bulgaria, is either transcontinental or geo-politically considered European. If disregarding these countries, the five highest infant mortality rates in Europe would be:

  1. Bulgaria (16.13)
  2. Albania (14.12)
  3. Moldova (13.65)
  4. Romania (10.73)
  5. Bosnia and Herzegovina (8.47)

What is the Infant Mortality Rate and Maternal Mortality Rate in India?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

34/1000 this year, and in the 50s in recent years, estimates the CIA world fact book, although I've seen as high as the 70s on other internet sources. I'm guessing in reality it is much higher due to under reporting in the countryside. The fact that child marriages (a major contribution to IMR) is still practiced illegally in many parts of the country shows how accurately the government can survey the vast rural populace.

In 2008, the estimated data is 52 infants died per 1000 live births. 30.15 deaths per 1000 live birth
