Abstract

Objective: To determine the DISTRIBUTION of mortality in 1-59 month-old children across IRANian provinces in a national mortality surveillance system.Methods: This national survey was conducted in 2009. A questionnaire was designed and standardized for collecting mortality data of children aged 1-59 months. The project team, consisting of collaborators from the whole 40 medical universities, filled in the questionnaires and returned them to the Ministry of Health and Medical Education (MOHME).Results: The mortality in 1-59 month-old children was unequally distributed across provinces. The mortality was higher among children of less- educated mothers than in children of more- educated mothers. There was a reverse association between 1-59 months mortality and socioeconomic status across IRAN as a whole and within most provinces.Conclusions: Our results suggest that socioeconomic DISTRIBUTION in mortality of 1-59 month-old children favors the better-off in IRAN as a whole and in most of its provinces. Investigating why mortality is higher in some provinces deserves special attention. Furthermore, it is advisable to conduct provincially-representative surveys to provide update estimates of different health situations and to allow their monitoring over time.
