Full textThe number of healthcare institutions that has embraced Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) as an effective and efficient method of neonatal care especially in Edo State, Nigeria has not multiplied even after more than a decade of its recommendation by the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2003. Nigeria ranks seventh among the ten African countries where newborns have the highest risk of dying with over 700 newborn deaths per10, 000 live births. This is worrisome because Edo State is one of the 36 states in Nigeria that contribute about 6,700 neonatal deaths to the 255,500 mortality rate recorded in Nigeria annually. This has led to a concern about the knowledge and attitude of the key drivers in neonatal care of simplified methods aimed at reducing neonatal mortality despite previous training efforts. The development of a strategy to enhance the early implementation of the WHO KMC guidelines in all healthcare facilities across the state was therefore conceptualized. Strategies to increase implementation are considered important to the success of KMC because reducing neonatal mortality rate is contextual. This research aimed to explore and describe the application of the KMC guidelines by the nurses, administrators and parents of preterm infants in the care of premature babies and to develop strategies to enhance its early implementation in healthcare facilities in Edo State, Nigeria.

Full textInfant mortality rate has long been an important factor when measuring a country's overall health status. The lower the infant mortality rate the better the country's health status. This study examines the variation of infant mortality in Hispanic/Latinos, Black/African Americans, and Medicaid beneficiaries in the United States. Secondary data was drawn from the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey for the year 2011-2012. Results of the study did not reveal or support the demographic or socioeconomic factors that influence the outcome of infant mortality. Future research should include data from the neo-natal intensive care unit, and not just the emergency department, where infant mortality is better recorded.

Full texts economic welfare. Despite the tremendous reduction since 1900s infant mortality rate is still high for developing countries. Infant mortality is reduced from 67 to 21 per 1000 live births in 17 years from 1990 to 2007 in Turkey. However, IMR in Turkey is still much higher than the rates in developing countries which is reported as 5 in 2007. In this thesis, I examine regional, household and individual level characteristics that are associated with infant mortality. For this purpose survival analysis is used in this analysis. The data come from 2003-2004 Turkey Demographic and Health Survey that includes detailed information of 8,075 ever married women between the ages 15-49. 7,360 mothers of these women gave birth to 22,443 children. The results of the logistic regression show that intervals between the births of the infants are associated with infant mortality at lower levels of wealth index. Children from poorer families with preceding birth interval shorter than 14 months or children whose mothers experience a subsequent birth fare badly. Breastfeeding is important for the survival chance of the infants under the age 3 months. Place of delivery and source of water the family uses are also found to be correlated with infant mortality risk. Curvilinear relation between maternal age at birth and infant mortality risk is observed, indicating higher risk for teenage mothers and mothers having children at older ages.

Full textEste estudo tem como objetivo investigar se a tábua PA90 do Reino Unido constitui um modelo aceitável para a experiência de mortalidade na Nigéria, no que diz respeito à população dos detentores de anuidades. A motivação para o trabalho provém do facto de o mercado nigeriano de anuidades se ter vindo a desenvolver nos últimos anos. Nesta dissertação apresenta-se uma revisão de alguma da literatura relevante sobre o tópico, incluindo algumas noções de base - o que é uma renda vitalícia - e descrições necessariamente breves da investigação sobre questões de mortalidade desenvolvida no Reino Unido e em África, bem como de algumas das razões pelas quais as taxas de mortalidade estão a ser continuamente objeto de estudo. Os dados e as metodologias indispensáveis à prossecução do objetivo são de seguida discutidos e aplicados. Destaque deve ser dado aos dois métodos de suavização utilizados, spline com base natural (NCS) e spline penalizada, que foram usados no training set data, para a obtenção de taxas de mortalidade alisadas. As taxas estimadas são posteriormente comparadas com a tábua PA90, para estudar se esta deve continuar a ser usada na Nigéria, ou se se impõe a realização de um estudo completo da mortalidade no país.
This study aims to investigate PA90 of the UK as a proxy for annuitant mortality table in Nigeria. Annuities seem to grow rapidly across the globe due to reformations and regulations in the public social security systems regarding post retirement plans. Nigerian annuity market is not left out in this global growth as annuity product now gains momentum by the day. The primary focus of this dissertation is to compare PA90 of the UK with crude rates estimated from the national data available, an important topic nowadays in Nigeria. A literature review is provided - what life annuity means, mortality investigations in UK and Africa, and some of the reasons why mortality rates are being assessed. Data and methodology required to accomplish the objective of the work developed are also thoroughly discussed and used. Two smoothing techniques, natural basis spline (NCS) and penalised spline were applied on the training set, to obtain smoothed mortality rates. The rates that have been estimated are then compared with the PA90 rates, to see whether this life table should continue to be used as a proxy for the mortality of Nigerian annuitants, or an independent study should be carried out.
