When, Where, and Why Are Babies Dying? Neonatal Death Surveillance and Review in Bangladesh

Abstract

Most parents of neonates who died had accessed and received care from a qualified healthcare provider. To further reduce neonatal mortality, it is important that the quality of care provided, particularly skilled birth attendance, emergency obstetric care, and neonatal care during the first month of life is improved, such that it is timely, safe, and effective.
