explain the purpose of tracking maternal death rates, newborn death rates, and fetal death rates. Choose one of these rates, and provide a step-by-step example of how a healthcare professional would calculate that rate for a healthcare facility.
maternal mortality ratio, usually defined as the number of annual maternal deaths for every 100,000 live births in a population.
The maternal mortality ratio is the most widely used measure of maternal deaths. It measures obstetric risk (i.e., the risk of dying once a woman is pregnant). It therefore omits the risk of being pregnant (i.e., fertility, in a population, which is measured by the maternal mortality rate or the lifetime risk)
Maternal mortality is widely acknowledged as a general indicator of the overall health of a population, of the status of women in society, and of the functioning of the health system. High maternal mortality ratios are thus markers of wider problems of health status, gender inequalities, and health services in a country. The maternal mortality ratio is therefore useful for advocacy purposes, but lacks information on the causes of high maternal mortality or the interventions required to reduce maternal deaths.
the US monitor the progress of health programs in reducing these deaths. According to the UN agencies that developed the indicators, the measures provide information that can help plan programs, highlight problems, and evaluate programs’ success.
Tracking is followed by reducing the maternal mortality rate by overcoming the challenges.
To provide better health care facilities.
To review the present plans and evaluate their success and improve the effectiveness of these plans.
To make better plans.
To se whether the plans are followed properly by the healthcare facilities.
To track the progress the set goals are achieving or not.
INFANT MORTALITY RATE is death of infants up to one year of age per 1000 live birth.
The infant mortality rate—the ratio of infant deathsto live births—is an important indicator of the overall health of a population. The mission of the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) is to provide statistical information that will guide actions andpolicies to improve the health of the American people.
IMR is good indicator of health of a society.
the purpose of tracking IMR is also to reduce IMR. By reviewing the effectiveness of present facilities and services. And evaluating the effectiveness of various plans which are there to provide best care to infants.
FETAL DEATH RATE:The ratio of fetal deaths divided by the sum of the births (the live births + the fetal deaths) in that year.
Purpose is same as IMR tracking.
MMR
the death of a woman while pregnant or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy, irrespective of the duration and site of the pregnancy, from any cause related to or aggravated by the pregnancy or its management but not from accidental or incidental causes.
MMR=No of maternal death during a given time period/ 100000 live births

What is the purpose of tracking maternal death rates, newborn death rates, and fetal death rates? Choose one of these rates, and provide a step-by-step example of how a healthcare professional would calculate that rate for a healthcare facility.
Explain the difference between a healthcare facility’s net death rate and gross death rate. In addition, explain the steps involved in calculating net and gross death rates, then explain how facilities use these calculations. Be sure to explain your answers in detail.
Essentials of Maternity, Newborn, and Women's Health Nursing Chapter 14: Nursing Management During Labor and Birth 1. Desiree, a 28-year-old G2P1, is admitted to the labor and birth unit.

Explain how changes in wealth, the price level, interest rates, and expectations alter the consumption curve. Pick an example of one of the changes above and explain what happens. For example, if you were to suddenly inherit some money (increased wealth), how would that affect your consumption curve?
Assume you are an HR specialist and have been tasked with conducting a job analysis. The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with insights into the processes associated with job analysis.

Step 2: Select a Job Analysis technique (see Chapter 5) and explain why you have chosen that method (i.e., which job analysis technique will help you learn more about the position?)....
The binomial and Poisson distributions are two different discrete probability distributions. Explain the differences between the distributions and provide an example of how they could be used in the healthcare industry. Identify the functions for binomial, Poisson, and normal distributions and discuss how Excel can be used to calculate probabilities of X, <X, and >X. Apply an example to at least one business scenario.
How does a bond’s par value differ from the market value? Explain the difference between a bond’s coupon rate, current yield and required rate of return. After answering the question, provide a detailed example of a current bond (price, coupon, YTM, time, etc) and using the data you have created, provide a calculation for one of the variables (for example, what is the present value, or what are the coupon payments). You may choose which variable to calculate.
