This study aims to investigate the determinants of public health expenditure in Malaysia. An Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach proposed by Pesaran & Shin (1999) and Pesaran et al. (2001) is applied to analyse annual time series data during the period from 1970 to 2017. The study focused on four explanatory variables, namely per capita gross domestic product (GDP), healthcare price index, population aged 65 years and above, as well as infant mortality rate. The bounds test results showed that the public health expenditure and its determinants are cointegrated. The empirical results revealed that the elasticity of government health expenditure with respect to national income is less than unity, indicating that public health expenditure in Malaysia is a necessity good and thus the Wagner’s law does not exist to explain the relationship between public health expenditure and economic growth in Malaysia. In the long run, per capita GDP, healthcare price index, population aged more than 65 years, and infant mortality rate are the important variables in explaining the behaviour of public health expenditure in Malaysia. The empirical results also prove that infant mortality rate is significant in influencing public health spending in the short run. It is noted that macroeconomic and health status factors assume an important role in determining the public health expenditure in Malaysia and thus government policies and strategies should be made by taking into account of these aspects.

Infant mortality is a major health problem in developing countries. It is an important indicator of a country's public health as it goes hand in hand with socio-economic conditions and many others. Public health spending has been committed to reducing this scourge. This has led to the completion of numerous studies which have yielded mixed results. The main objective of this study is to test the effect of public health expenditure (% GDP) on the infant mortality rate, taking into account the role that institutional quality can play. To achieve this, we use two approaches which are the autoregressive vector panel model with exogenous variables (PVAR (X)) and the smooth threshold regression model (PSTR) on annual data covering the period 2002-2016 and covering 37 African countries. Sub-Saharan. Our main results through the PVAR (X) reveal that in the absence of institutional variables, public health expenditure has a negative and significant effect on the infant mortality rate, whereas, in the presence of the various institutional variables, this effect is still negative but is no longer significant. Our results show that the presence of institutions halves the weight of public health expenditure in explaining the infant mortality rate. In addition, our results show through the PSTR that there is a certain level of institutional qualities that these countries must achieve for public health expenditure to positively affect infant mortality rates. These thresholds oscillate for all the institutional variables around 7%. Taking institutional variables into account will help reduce infant mortality in Sub-Saharan African countries.

ABSTRACTBackground: Age-specific pediatric health consequences of community disruption after Hurricane Katrina have not been analyzed. Post-Katrina vital statistics are unavailable. The objectives of this study were to validate an alternative method to estimate child mortality rates in the greater New Orleans area and compare pre-Katrina and post-Katrina mortality rates.Methods: Pre-Katrina 2004 child mortality was estimated from death reports in the local daily newspaper and validated by comparison with pre-Katrina data from the Louisiana Department of Health. Post-Katrina child mortality rates were analyzed as a measure of health consequences.Results: Newspaper-derived estimates of mortality rates appear to be valid except for possible underreporting of neonatal rates. Pre-Katrina and post-Katrina mortality rates were similar for all age groups except infants. Post-Katrina, a 92% decline in mortality rate occurred for neonates (<28 days), and a 57% decline in mortality rate occurred for postneonatal infants (28 days–1 year). The post-Katrina decline in infant mortality rate exceeds the pre-Katrina discrepancy between newspaper-derived and Department of Health–reported rates.Conclusions: A declining infant mortality rate raises questions about persistent displacement of high-risk infants out of the region. Otherwise, there is no evidence of long-lasting post-Katrina excess child mortality. Further investigation of demographic changes would be of interest to local decision makers and planners for recovery after public health emergencies in other regions.(Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2010;4:62-65)

Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2012 stated that 44% of infant deaths in the world occurred in the first 28 days of life (neonatal period). The research results of the Central Statistics Agency (CSA) in 2016 noted that the infant mortality rate (IMR) reached 25.5%, West Java Province was one of the contributors to the highest maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR). Infant mortality inside the womb or outside the womb triggers grief and deep sorrow that is at risk of progressive, repetitive and permanent in women. Nurses in the maternity area play an important role in overcoming the problem of loss through various approaches to either theory or intervention. The purpose of this study was to determine the application of chronic sorrow theory in post-partum women whose babies were dead at Sariningsih Hospital Bandung. Method: This research was qualitative research. Participants were 5 people selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data collection was done by interviewing using a guide from the Burke / Eakes Chronic Sorrow Assessment Tool. Results: It was identified that women's opinions about the causes of infant mortalities were planned (abortion) and unplanned. Participants had effective coping strategies in dealing with their loss such as social support, and spiritual beliefs for comfort. Conclusion: participants felt the effectiveness of the chronic sorrow theory to overcome infant loss.Keywords: chronic sorrow theory application, loss, post-partum women, Qualitative.

The adequate provision of basic sanitation services is an essential condition for public health and quality of life of the population. The lack or insufficiency of sanitation services coverage may cause several externalities that could harm public health and social well-being. The purpose of this study was to elaborate a health indicator through the relationship between infant mortality rate, urban population and sanitation services coverage (such as piped water, solid waste collection, water supply and sewage). This was a documentary and exploratory study that utilized multivariate analysis techniques and efficiency criteria (r², Nash-Sutcliffe and root mean square error). The area covered by the study were the municipalities of the State of Pará, divided into six geographical mesoregions. The data related to the sanitation indicators, infant mortality rate until the age of 5 and urban population were obtained through the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) website. The results indicate that the urban population variable in households without municipal solid waste collection showed lower significance in the health indicator. It was found that association between IS and basic sanitation services (explanatory variables), overall, is statistically well explained by r² and NASH, signaling that the statistical models are appropriate and efficient. It is concluded that the reduction of infant mortality is directly proportional to sanitation coverage.

MTBS is one of the government’s efforts to reduce infant mortality rate. Most of sick toddler cases found in Situbondo regency are dealing with dengue fever and pneumonia, especially in Banyuputih Public Health Center area. One of the approaches to reduce the infant mortality rate is to consistently fill the MTBS format. However, due to limited manpower and the workload, medical personnel especially midwife could not optimally fill out the MTBS, so that toddler diseases could not be detected early. It is because the filling format and the reporting system of MTBS are not user friendly. The objective of this research is to develop MTBS implementation by using Information Technology System, in order to increase the quality of midwife service in giving midwifery care and reduce the infant mortality rate in Banyuputih Public Health Center area. This research generated a product in the form of information system called e-MTBS

Background: Globally, the infant mortality rate (IMR) is still extremely high. One of the efforts to improve children's health is exclusive breastfeeding for six months. Exclusive breastfeeding can reduce infant mortality rate caused by various infectious diseases. Thus, the community, especially mothers need to have proper knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding, and then they are expected to practice it. This study aims to determine the relationship between mothers’ knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding and the breastfeeding patterns of 6-month children in Jatimulyo Village, Petanahan Sub-district, Kab, Indonesia. Kebumen Regency, Central Java Province, Indonesia.Methods: The study was conducted in Jatimulyo Village using quantitative methods and correlation design with a cross-sectional approach. This study sample consisted of 56 mothers who had children aged 6-24 months selected based on the total sampling approach. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using chi-square statistical tests.Results: This study found that most of the respondents are 26-30 years old and have a high school education level with multigravida parity and have a moderate level of knowledge. The study showed a relationship between the level of exclusive breastfeeding knowledge and breastfeeding patterns with a p-value of 0.002 (<0.05) and a correlation value of 0.499.Conclusions: Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between the level of knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding patterns with a p-value of 0.002 (<0.05) and a correlation value of 0.499.

Life expectancy is one of the indicators to calculate the Human Development Index (HDI) which determined by infants’ health, toddlers’ health, frequency of liveborn children and death rate in the community. East Java Province has four dominant cultural areas such as Mataraman including the western part of the border of Central Java to Kediri, Madura including Bangkalan to Pamekasan, Arek including north coast of Surabaya to Malang and Tapal Kuda including Pasuruan, Probolinggo, Situbondo, Bondowoso, Lumajang and Jember. Those four cultural areas have different characteristic that can affect public health status especially life expectancy in East Java Province. The analysis aimed to know the correlation between infant mortality rate and life expectancy and to know the differences of life expectancy among four cultural areas in East Java year 2015. This analysis used secondary data obtained from Central Bureau of Statistic of East Java on May, 2017. The data were life expectancy as dependent variable, infant mortality rate as independent variable and cultural areas in East Java as grouping variables. The result showed that there was correlation between infant mortality rate with life expectancy (p=0.000) and there was different in life expectancy among four cultural areas in East Java year 2015 (p=0.000) such as cultural areas Mataraman-Madura, Mataraman-Tapal Kuda and Arek-Tapal Kuda. It suggested the government to continue improving the socio-economic welfare of the community and public health improvement in the Tapal Kuda area which had high infant mortality rate and low life expectancy.

Background and Hypothesis: Marion County suffers from stark racial disparities in infant mortality rate (IMR) with black babies experiencing an IMR of 11.6 and white babies 4.5, to culminate at a state average of 7.3. Since 2016, WeCare Indiana has worked to reduce the IMR in Central Indiana by connecting pregnant, post-partum, and childbearing age women with Community Health Workers (CHW) and community organizations that help with areas including but not limited to baby supplies, housing, and food insecurity. The goal of this research was to identify factors that promote changes in behaviors in WeCare clients as well as barriers to behavior modification in relation to the five pillars of the WeCare program: food insecurity, mental health, smoking, breastfeeding, and safe sleep. Experimental Design or Project Methods: Qualitative analysis of unstructured CHW follow-up notes from 2016 to 2018 of 1775 WeCare clients from mostly 13 highest risk zip codes for IM in Central Indiana was completed using keyword searches and clustering narrative entries into themes associated with the apriori areas of behavioral change. Results: Several key influencers of behavioral change were identified: (1) CHW dissemination of eligibility information about WIC, (2) CHW referral of clients to behavioral health resources, and (3) Pack n Play resources bundled with Safe Sleep class. Persistent barriers to positive behavioral change included: (1) lack of transportation to food resources, (2) unmanaged stress propagating substance use and smoking, (3) employment interfering with breastfeeding, and (4) lack of Safe Sleep education for all caretakers. Conclusion and Potential Impact: Next steps include sharing qualitative findings with CHW to reinforce positive behavioral change as well as investigating solutions for the barriers that prevent change within the five pillars of WeCare Indiana. Data from this study will be used to help interpret the calculated behavioral change scores relative to baseline measures that were found from quantitative analysis.
