Perinatal mortality ratio was defined as the total number of stillbirths and early neonatal deaths occurring at hospital within seven days after birth per 1000 deliveries.
Like other countries in the region, Uganda has seen some improvement in maternal mortality ratio (MMR, defined as the number of maternal deaths per 100,000 live births) since 1990, the year in which the Millennium Development Goals were adopted by the United Nations [ 2]. Between 1990 and 2010 MMR had declined from 600 to 310 deaths per 100,000 live births [ 3].
Short- and long-term survival (long-term defined as 1 year and longer): the standardized mortality ratio (SMR) was defined as the observed hospital mortality divided by the SAPS II estimated mortality; the SMR was analyzed for all patients and for each of the SAPS II admission categories; 8.
The standardised mortality ratio (SMR) was defined as the ratio of observed to expected number of deaths.
The maternal mortality ratio (MMR) is defined as "the ratio of the number of maternal deaths during a given period per 100,000 live births during the same time-period".
The ratio, defined as uniformity index, depends upon the design of a RF unit, and has a significant influence on the number of stirrings needed to achieve the desired insect mortality.
The maternal mortality ratio (MMR) has been defined as the number of deaths per 100 000 live births.
Let us define mortality ratio (MR) for a certain cause of death as the ratio of the number of these deaths during the whole LSS period 1950-2003 thethe number of persons entering LSS.
15 For recent censuses, which means 1971 onwards, there is a strong association between deprivation defined using this approach and mortality, represented with standardised mortality ratios to remove the impact of differing age and sex distributions.
