In the field of public health, infant mortality is a commonly used statistical measure that is defined as the ratio of infant deaths to live births.
Traditionally, the most common cause worldwide was dehydration from diarrhea, however a variety of programs combating this problem have decreased the rate of children dying from dehydration. As a result, the most common cause is now pneumonia. Other major causes of infant mortality include: malnutrition, malaria, congenital malformation, infection and SIDS.
In reliability engineering, "infant mortality" is the failures that occur in the first part of the bathtub curve.
The most widely used definition of Infant mortality rate (IMR) is the number of deaths of babies under one year of age per 1,000 live births. The rate in a given region, therefore, is the total number of newborns dying under one year of age divided by the total number of live births during the year, then all multiplied by 1,000. The infant mortality rate is also called the infant death rate (per 1,000 live births).

September is Infant Mortality Awareness Month - every year! And as it draws to a close for 2014 I feel moved to make a firm commitment that by this time next year our work will have created a change in communities around the USA.
*The launch of the Perinatal Task Force*
In every 'maternal toxic area' in the United States my goal is to see that, at a minimum, there is a Perinatal Safe Spot operating within a reasonable geographical radius or accessible via our virtual electronic network. Each area, zone or network will be manned (woman-ed!) by a JJ Way connected person, team or agency - simply because at this time, place and juncture it is the right, and only, thing to do. We can no longer stand by and claim that we can't fix this mess. Let's start the conversation, let's lead the revolution, let's DO something - NOW!
Thank you so much for becoming a member of our National Perinatal Task Force! And for being willing to support Jennie Joseph in transforming maternity care in the USA.
Join us on Thursday September 25, 2014 at 7:30 PM EST and if possible watch this video before the event - https://vimeo.com/65975304
