Background
3
Minnesota’s Infant Mortality Reduction Initiative (MIMRI)
• Is an effort of the Minnesota Department of Health to improve birth outcomes and reduce infant mortality in Minnesota with an emphasis on reducing disparities in rates (e.g., racial/ethnic).
• MIMRI provides the following:– Statewide leadership– Resources– Education and information– Technical assistance to tribal governments, local public health departments, and
community agencies
• MIMRI also uses the most current data (e.g., vital records) to help plan, coordinate, and evaluate interventions and activities.– Birth Data are Essential!!
• MIMRI has numerous partners including: MN Chapter of the March of Dimes, Minnesota Perinatal Organization, Tribal Governments, Local Public Health Departments, Twin-Cities Healthy Start, WIC, MN Center for Health Statistics, Office of Minority and Multicultural Health (OMMH), to name a few!

What is Infant Mortality?
Infant mortality is the death of an infant before age one.
5
What Is the Infant Mortality Rate?
• The infant mortality rate (IMR) is expressed as the number of infant deaths per 1,000 live births.
• For example: In 2011, there were 324 infant deaths and 68,783 live births in Minnesota. What was the infant mortality rate?324/68,783 x 1,000 = 4.7 infant deaths per 1,000 live births
Interpretation: In 2011, the IMR in Minnesota was 4.7 infant deaths per 1,000 live births.
6
What Does the Infant Mortality Rate Indicate or Suggest?
• The IMR is one of the most important indicators of health.
• The IMR reflects “…a variety of factors such as maternal health, quality and access to medical care, socioeconomic conditions, and public health practices.”1

Disparities
8
What is a health disparity?
9
A health disparity is not:
• A type of disease or a health condition.
• A person of color with a disease or health condition.
• A poor person or other persons from disparate populations with a disease or other adverse health conditions.
10
Health disparities are:
“Differences in the incidence, prevalence, mortality and burden of disease and other adverse health conditions that exists between specific populations groups.”

Some Data
12
Infant Mortality Reporting
• Data Source– Linked Infant Death/Birth Data Set• Match the death of the infant to its birth
• Race reported as mother’s race• Reported by birth year

Purposes of Region V CoIIN
• Region V CoIIN encourages2:
– Distance-based communication using existing technologies (e.g., web).
– Innovation as well as constant communication of cyberteam members across various levels of the network.
– Cyberteam members to engage in collaborative learning, work, and the development, implementation, and evaluation of strategies to address a problem.

44
Region V CoIIN
The Four topics selected for Region V’s CoIIN are:
1. Social Determinants of Health2. SIDS/SUIDS/Safe Sleep3. Preconcpetion Health/Interconception Care4. Early Elective Deliveries
45
1. Improve health equity and address the social determinants of health that most significantly impact disparities in birth outcomes.
2. Reduce the rate of SIDS/SUIDS deaths in Minnesota.3. Assure a comprehensive statewide system that monitors
infant mortality.4. Provide comprehensive, culturally-appropriate,
coordinated health care to all women during the preconception, pregnancy and post-partum periods.
5. Reduce the rate of preterm births in Minnesota.6. Improve the rate of pregnancies that are planned,
including reducing the rate of teen pregnancies.7. Establish an ongoing task force of stakeholders to oversee
implementation of recommendations and action steps.

• It is estimated that in the U.S., about 11,300 babies die each year on the same day they are born.• The highest among
industrialized countries.
• About 50% more infants die on their first day of life in the U.S. than in all other industrialized countries combined.
• The other 33 industrialized countries have a total of 7,500 first-day infant deaths each year combined.
