- W2285388634 abstract "Between 1981-84 a survey (EMIS) on infant mortality was completed in the 5 major urban centers in Burkina Faso (Banfora, Bobo-Dioulasso, Koudougou, and Ouahigouya) and in Ouagadougou, the capital. The survey was done in 2 stages: 1) collecting a cohort of newborns either at home or at the maternities between April 1, 1981 and March 31, 1982; and 2) following up on these cohorts during their first 2 years of life (until March 31, 1984). 2 questionnaires were used, the 1st one to collect basic data while the 2nd one was used during the follow-up home-visits. The methodology did not include all newborns as planned in all of the centers due to a number of problems including migration; however, for Bobo-Dioulasso the survey did cover 80% of all newborns. The estimated results of the survey should be considered a real indication of infant mortality rates (IMR) for ages 2 years for those centers covered in the survey. General estimates for IMR for all selected centers is around 100/1000. In 1976 IMR was estimated at 176/1000 while in 1985 it was 134/1000. The major causes of death are: 1) diarrhea--affecting 1 out of 4 infants under 2; and 2) measles. The tragedy is that deaths from both these illnesses are preventable--diarrhea with oral rehydration therapy and measles with vaccinations. There is a need to mount national health and vaccination campaigns to include the rural areas where the majority of the population live." @default.
