Quote: Originally Posted by AlexisT Infant mortality is all deaths to one year. Not the best statistic to use for this. Perinatal mortality covers deaths to 7 days; neonatal to 28 days. Also, in some countries, a team approach is used.

Asking if a midwife attended the birth is like asking an American if an L&D nurse attended theirs. I personally emailed people in each of the countries listed above (except for the U.S.) to gather the statistics I have above on midwife attended births and many explained how their systems worked. I would say that L&D nurses play an integral role the birth experiences of women in hospitals. Your point about IMR is well taken, but perinatal and neonatal rates are much harder to come by for a variety of countries. Nurses and midwives (per 1,000 people) | Data | Map.

Hans Rosling's 200 Countries, 200 Years, 4 Minutes - The Joy of Stats - BBC Four. Bringing Infographics to Life. In a world that often finds itself awash in a sea of data, it's no surprise that readers can become entranced by tidy infographics. While most can recognize effective representations of data, it takes both a critical and creative thinker to condense data into a compelling visual model. Even though infographics can help to clarify meaning, it takes a special teacher to bring data to life.

In the exemplary presentation below, master teacher, Hans Rosling, condenses 200 years, and 120,000 pieces of data, into a compelling 4 minute history lesson. Part infographic, part animation, and part passionate explanation, Rosling's presentation is a model for how data can be used to tell a complelling story.

Features - America's Children Key National Indicators of Well-Being, 2010. Bendheim-Thoman Center for Research on Child Wellbeing. Indicators of Child Well-Being. Resources For Welfare Decisions Indicators of Child Well-Being Background Indicators of child well-being increasingly are being used by federal, state and local governments and by nonprofit organizations to measure the impact of welfare reform and other social policies on children and their families.

Statistical indicators are useful in describing demographic and other characteristics, monitoring of program impacts, and holding agencies accountable for progress towards objectives and program outcomes. Child well-being indicators assess health status, cognitive functioning, and social and emotional status and encompass a wide range of variables including educational opportunity, economic security, food security, and family/neighborhood environments.

State Energy Data System. The State Energy Data System (SEDS) is the source of the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) comprehensive state energy statistics. EIA’s goal in maintaining SEDS is to create historical time series of energy production, consumption, prices, and expenditures by state that are defined as consistently as possible over time and across sectors for analysis and forecasting purposes.
