Premature mortality

Deaths before age 65. This can indicate the overall health of a population.

Death among children under 1 year old.

Death (neonatal)

Deaths among children less than 28 days old.

Death (postneonatal)

Deaths from 28 days old to 1 year old.

Mortality

Death is, of course, a severe health outcome. Many deaths are preventable.

Premature mortality lets us look at deaths before age 65. It can be a useful way to indicate the overall health of the population.

Neonatal deaths, postneonatal deaths, and infant deaths let us look at deaths among the the youngest members of our communities. Infants, with new, developing bodies, can be very susceptible to environmental threats - like poisonings, accidents, and injuries.
