3.2 Perinatal Mortality Rate (per 1000 livebirths)
BAGUIO CITY DATA SOURCE: Health Services Office (HSO)
Global Definition
PERINATAL MORTALITY RATE is the sum of the number of resident fetal deaths of 28 or
more weeks gestation plus the number of resident newborns dying under 7 days of age in a specified geographic area (country, state, county, etc.) divided by the sum of the number of resident live births plus the number of resident fetal deaths of 28 or more weeks gestation for the same geographic area (for a specified time period, usually a calendar year) and multiplied by 1,000.
Computation:
[(Number of resident fetal deaths 28 or more weeks gestation + Number of resident newborns
dying under 7 days of age) / (Number of resident live births + Number of resident fetal deaths of 28 or more weeks gestation)] x 1,000

3. Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages
Ensuring healthy lives and promoting the well-being for all at all ages is essential to sustainable development. Significant strides have been made in increasing life expectancy and reducing some of the common killers associated with child and maternal mortality. Major progress has been made on increasing access to clean water and sanitation, reducing malaria, tuberculosis, polio and the spread of HIV/AIDS. However, many more efforts are needed to fully eradicate a wide range of diseases and address many different persistent and emerging health issues.

By 2030, end preventable deaths of newborns and children under 5 years of age, with all countries aiming to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1,000 live births and under-5 mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1,000 live births
