Survival Status and Predictors of Early Neonatal Mortality Among Admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Units in Public Hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Between January 1-2022 to January 1-2023: Retrospective Cohort Study

Abstract

The first week following birth is the time when there is a greater chance that a child will die. Early infant mortality is still a problem for worldwide public health, particularly in sub-Saharan African nations like Ethiopia. Most neonatal deaths—roughly 75%—occur within the first seven days of delivery, but there limited evidence on retrospective cohort follow-up studies and little evidence of how to determine the factors that may determine when someone die in Ethiopia, specifically in this study area.
