INFANT MORTALITY IN THE COUNTY OF SĂLAJ
Abstract:
Infant mortality is maintained at a high level in
this period as against the developed European countries,
but its level is lower than that registered in Romania. Out
of the analysis of the data recorded in the death files
regarding the infants below the age of 1, we can notice
certain aspects that the medical-health personnel should
focus on; infant mortality represents one of the main
demographic aspects in appreciating the health status of
a population. The level and the dynamics of infant
mortality depend on social, economical, cultural, and
behavioural conditions, not only on the organization of
Public Health Care Services.
