BACKGROUND: The neonatal mortality rate is a main indicator of the health and development of a country. Having insight into the cause of neonatal deaths may be the first step to reducing it. This paper depicts the cause of newborn deaths in Iran.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study was performed on data from the national Iranian Maternal And Neonatal network to investigate all neonatal deaths in the country during the year 2019. The cause of death data were reported according to categories of birth weight, gestational age (GA), death time and place.
RESULTS: The main causes of the 9959 neonatal deaths during the study period were respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) (37%), malformation (21%), prematurity of <26 weeks (20%), others (12%), asphyxia (7%) and infection (3%). The major causes of neonatal mortality in delivery rooms were prematurity of <26 weeks and in the inpatient wards the RDS. By increasing the GA and birth weight towards term babies, the rate of RDS gets lower, while that of malformation gets higher.
CONCLUSIONS: RDS was the main cause of neonatal mortality in Iran which is seen mainly in preterm babies. Prematurity of <26 weeks was another main cause. Thus, suggestions include reducing prematurity by preconception and pregnancy care and, on the other hand, improving the care of preterm infants in delivery rooms and inpatient wards.
