Description
Kazakhstan has cut deaths among newborn babies over the past ten years, yet it lacks trusted ways to gauge how sick those babies are. So Tatibekova and co-authors map the diagnoses noted when babies leave the hospital. They use national records for all live births from twenty fourteen to twenty twenty-four, more than four point four million births. They track deaths, the survival of the smallest babies, and the main coded diagnosis at discharge.
The death rate for newborns fell from six point two to four per one thousand births. At the same time, the share of babies who lived and had a noted diagnosis rose from four point nine percent to sixteen point seven percent. By twenty twenty-four, three codes made up most of those diagnoses. The authors offer these patterns as a base for planning care after discharge.
