Income inequality as a determinant of neonatal mortality in the Americas during 2000–2019
The analysis suggests that income inequality may be positively associated with the neonatal mortality rate in the Americas. Nonetheless, given the modest magnitude of the estimates and Gini values and trends during 2000-2019, the findings suggest a potential limited scope for redistributive policies to support reductions in neonatal mortality in the region. Thus, policies and interventions that address higher coverage and quality of services prov…
Neonatal mortality in countries of the Americas, 2000–2020
Objective. To analyze temporal trends and inequalities in neonatal mortality between 2000 and 2020, and to set neonatal mortality targets for 2025 and 2030 in the Americas. Methods. A descriptive ecological study was conducted using 33 countries of the Americas as units of analysis. Both the percentage change and average annual percentage change in neonatal mortality rates were estimated. Measurements of absolute and relative inequality based on …
Surveillance of severe maternal morbidity and maternal mortality in maternity hospitals of the Latin American and Caribbean network - Red CLAP
The sustained reduction in maternal mortality in America underlines the need to analyse women who survived a complication that could have been fatal if appropriate and timely care had not been taken. Analysis of maternal near-miss (MNM) cases, as well as potentially life-threatening conditions (PLTC), are considered indicators for monitoring the quality of maternal care. The specific objective of this study protocol is to develop a surveillance s…
Equity throughout the life course and the evolving role of the Pan American Health Organization
The objective of this article is to summarize the evolution of the regional commitments of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) on health promotion and strategies to improve the health and well-being of women, children, adolescents, and older persons. PAHO regional strategies approved by Member States in the last 20 years are used as the main source of information. The article presents the challenges of making health promotion a public hea…

Maternal mortality is unacceptably high in our region. In 2015, the Latin American Center for Perinatology and Women ́s Reproductive Health (CLAP) created a regional network of institutions including 16 countries, committed to improving epidemiological surveillance and healthcare of women in a situation of abortion or near miss event, using a common platform, the Perinatal Information System (SIP). The objective of the current pilot project was t…
Covid-19 and newborn health
Objective. To describe perinatal and neonatal outcomes in newborns exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Methods. A systematic review was conducted by searching PubMed Central, LILACS, and Google Scholar using the keywords ‘covid ’ AND ‘newborn’ OR ‘child’ OR ‘infant,’ on 18 March 2020, and again on 17 April 2020. One researcher conducted the search and extracted data on demographics, maternal outcomes, diagnostic tests, imaging, and neonatal outcomes. Results.…
Information and communication technologies in neonatal health
Objectives. To identify scientific evidence on the use and results of information and communication technologies for the improvement of neonatal health in general or specific health problems or interventions, and to describe the type of intervention and its results. Methods. A systematic review of the available evidence was performed. The search was carried out in peerreviewed journals between January 1, 2008 and April 30, 2018, in English and Sp…
Sistemas de vigilancia de anomalías congénitas en América Latina y el Caribe
Objetivos. Conocer la disponibilidad de los sistemas nacionales de vigilancia de anomalías congénitas en América Latina y el Caribe y describir sus características. Métodos. Estudio transversal mediante una encuesta semiestructurada y autoadministrada en línea remitida en el 2017 por las representaciones locales de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud a las autoridades de los ministerios de salud de todos los países de América Latina y el Car…
A consensus statement on birth defects surveillance, prevention, and care in Latin America and the Caribbean
Birth defects contribute up to 21% of the mortality in those under 5 years of age in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), and that burden has been compounded by the Zika virus epidemic. In 2001, the March of Dimes launched a series of biennial assemblies called the International Conference on Birth Defects and Disabilities in the Developing World (ICBD). The latest ICBD, in 2017, convened in Bogotá, Colombia, and was attended by over 300 profes…
An analysis of three levels of scaled-up coverage for 28 interventions to avert stillbirths and maternal, newborn and child mortality in 27 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean with the Lives …
Our modelling suggests a 337 % increase in the number of lives saved, which would have enormous impacts on population health. Further research could help clarify the impacts of a comprehensive scale-up of the full range of essential MNCH interventions we have modelled
Reflexiones en torno al valor pedagógico del constructivismo
Prevalencia del consumo de tabaco en médicos residentes de pediatría en Argentina
The prevalence of smoking among the pediatric residents is high and is close to the level found in other Argentine physicians. The factors associated with smoking were having a mother who smoked and living alone. The residents should take a more active role with patients or relatives of patients who smoke. Activities need to be put into place that improve the level of training on this subject in medical school and during residency
