Description : In the context of Papua New Guinea, the neonatal mortality rate has declined from 31.8 deaths per 1000 live births in 1990 to 24.5 in 2015. In absolute terms however, there were 4379 neonatal deaths in 1990 compared to 5514 deaths in 2015. This translates to about 15 lives lost in the first 28 days of their lives. Recent research[1] indicates the leading causes of neonatal deaths to be preterm birth complications (29%), intrapartum-related complications (30%), and severe infection leading to sepsis, meningitis, and tetanus (19%).
Interventions to reduce neonatal mortality necessitates timely, high-quality inpatient care to survive. Thus, access to high quality care at the facility level is a critical requirement to ensure neonatal survival through measures including provision of warmth, feeding support, safe oxygen therapy and effective phototherapy with prevention and treatment of infections.
Based on the above situation analysis, there is an emergent need to have a "system wide" assessment to identify critical bottlenecks across all aspects of newborn health care. There is a need to examine all functional aspects of the health system in order to identify and prioritise the bottlenecks in arresting neonatal mortality.
The analysis and the ensuing interventions needs to examine all aspects of newborn intervention starting from the household level and including facility level at primary, secondary and tertiary levels.
