Notes:
Van Buren-Cass County Health Department - Infant deaths occurring in Cass Van Buren counties.
Infant Deaths: Deaths occurring to individuals less than 1 year of age.
Infant Death Rates: The infant death rate is the
number of resident infant deaths divided by total resident live births X 1,000.
Adding and subtracting the number shown after the ± symbol from the rate creates a
confidence interval indicating that the true rate lies between the lower and upper
bounds of this interval with 95 % statistical confidence.
The true rate lies between the lower and upper bounds of the interval with 95% statistical
confidence. If the confidence interval is large for a single year comparison,
it is suggested that you use the three year and five year moving average rates.
*:
A rate is not calculated when there are fewer than 6 events,
because the width of the confidence interval would negate any usefulness for comparative purposes.
-:
A dash indicates that there were either no births or no infant deaths from this category.
