Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In total, more than 5.0 million children under age 5, including 2.3 million newborns, along with 2.1 million children and youth aged 5 to 24 years – 43 per cent of whom are adolescents – died in 2021. This tragic and massive loss of life, most of which was due to preventable or treatable causes, is a stark reminder of the urgent need to end preventable deaths of children and young people. Sadly, these deaths were mostly preventable with widespread and effective interventions like improved care around the time of birth, vaccination, nutritional supplementation and water and sanitation programmes.Timely, high-quality and disaggregated data – which allow the most vulnerable children to be identified – are critical to achieving the goal of ending preventable deaths of children. Yet as the COVID-19 pandemic has put into stark light, data of this nature are more the exception than the rule: Just 36 countries have high-quality nationally representative data on under-five mortality for 2021, while about half the world’s countries have no data on child mortality in the last five years. These substantial data gaps pose enormous challenges to policy- and decision-making and prolong the need for modelling mortality from what little data are available. To improve the availability, quality and timeliness of data for monitoring the health and survival situation of children and youth, much greater investments must be made to strengthen data systems.

Book excerpt: While the world was gripped by the unfolding COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, children continued to face the same crisis they have for decades: intolerably high mortality rates and vastly inequitable chances at life. In total, more than 5.0 million children under age 5, including 2.4 million newborns, along with 2.2 million children and youth aged 5 to 24 years – 43 per cent of whom are adolescents – died in 2020.

Book excerpt: "Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG 4) calls for reducing the under-five mortality rate by two-thirds between 1990 and 2015. As global momentum and investment for accelerating child survival grow, monitoring progress at the global and country levels has become even more critical. Generating accurate estimates of under-five mortality poses a considerable challenge because of the limited data available for many developing countries. In 2004 the United Nations established the Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (IGME) to advance the work on monitoring progress towards MDG 4 and to enhance country capacity to produce timely and properly assessed estimates of child mortality. This report presents the IGME's latest estimates of infant and under-five mortality and assesses progress towards MDG 4 at the country, regional and global levels"--Page one of online resource.

Book excerpt: On 20 November 2009, the global community celebrates the 20th anniversary of the adoption by the United Nations General Assembly of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the unique document that sets international standards for the care, treatment and protection of all individuals below age 18. To celebrate this landmark, the United Nations Children's Fund is dedicating a special edition of its flagship report The State of the World's Children to examining the Convention's evolution, progress achieved on child rights, challenges remaining, and actions to be taken to ensure that its promise becomes a reality for all children.

Book Synopsis Mapping Child Health by : Roy Burstein
Download or read book Mapping Child Health written by Roy Burstein and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is comprised of three distinct chapters which each aim to improve understanding of child health and survival in developing countries through novel applications of statistical modelling. In each case, modelling was used to make estimates at more refined levels than previously existed, either geographically or in age categories, with the goal of improving the evidence base upon which trends and inequalities in child health could be monitored and assessed. In the first chapter, Mapping under-5 and neonatal mortality in Africa, a baseline analysis for the Sustainable Development Goals, a geostatistical model was developed to estimate the child mortality rate for each 5 x 5 kilometer piece of land in 46 countries in Africa, from 2000 to 2015. The study utilized geographically referenced data from 235 household surveys and censuses and a suite of geospatially disaggregated covariates to make high resolution estimates. Resultant estimates on a gridded surface were also aggregated to the district and province level in each country, to provide a full range of estimates at useful spatial resolutions. Despite large declines in mortality rates overall during the study period, there was substantial heterogeneity in both the absolute levels and rates of change in child mortality, both across and within countries. While declines in many areas met or surpassed the 2015 UN Millennium Development Goal for a 4.4% annual reduction, the hard threshold of 25 deaths per 1000 livebirths set for the 2030 Sustainable Development goal would require much of Africa to reduce mortality at unprecedented rate during the coming years. The second chapter, Development and validation of a new method for indirect estimation of neonatal, infant, and under-5 mortality using summary birth histories, dealt with the issue arising in child mortality estimation wherein the dominant source of data, summary birth histories (SBHs), do not on their own provide enough information to estimate age-specific trends in child mortality. To address this, a discrete hazards model was trained on complete birth history data from 243 surveys in 76 countries, representing over 8 million births. A novel approach was developed for prediction at the level of the hypothetical child, each weighted by their probability of birth. Three validation and verification approaches were developed: survey-wise cross validation, comparison against existing indirect methods, and external validation employed through the application of the new method to an addition 243 SBH-only data sources. The new method was found to produce results which are comparable to current best methods for under-5 mortality estimation while additionally producing valid age-specific estimates. Use of this method could allow researchers to utilize a massive amount of SBH data for estimation of trends in neonatal and infant mortality. The third chapter, Geographic accessibility and utilization of facility-based care in Zambia: a geostatistical analysis, explored the predictive ability of geographic factors, including travel time to nearest health facility, to explain healthcare utilization in Zambia, and developed on geostatistical model in order to predict a gridded surface representing treatment seeking rates for diarrhea and febrile illness in children across the country. This analysis overcame a number of important data and methodological limitations present in previous research, including using exact household locations, using flexible splines to represent the decay function over travel time, and using a full probabilistic model and providing uncertainty around all estimates. Results indicate that while at least three quarters of Zambians live within an hour of a health facility, small differences in travel time to healthcare are independently associated with large declines in utilization rates within the first hour. The decision to seek care at a health facility is a complex process that is not easily reduced to geography. As such, a univariate model based solely on geographic accessibility is not sufficient for accurate prediction of utilization across a gridded surface. Improved prediction using a probabilistic model is possible but uncertainty remains high.
