11. Maternal factors associated with high risk of childhood mortality  Too short birth interval: less than 24 months after a previous birth  Mother is “too young” (under 18) or “too old” (over 40)  High birth order: mother has four or more children Children are at an elevated risk of dying if:

18. Maternal Mortality Maternal mortality includes all deaths that occur to women during pregnancy, during birth, and up to 2 months after birth or the end of the pregnancy.

19. Maternal Mortality Maternal mortality ratio (MMR) for the 7-year period before the survey = 676 deaths per 100,000 births [95% Confidence Interval ranges from 541 to 810 deaths per 100,000 births]

20. Summary Childhood mortality has decreased over the past 11 years. Current infant mortality rate is 59 deaths per 1,000 live births and under-five mortality rate is 88 deaths per 1,000 live births. Childhood mortality is generally higher among children of less educated mothers and those from poorer households. Child mortality is highest among children born less than 2 years after a previous birth and those born to mothers under age 20. Maternal mortality ratio is 676 deaths per 100,000 live births.
