Infant Mortality Definitions

Infant Mortality (Death Data Only): The number of infant deaths during the year per 1,000 live births during the same year.

Birth-Death Linked Infant Mortality (Birth Cohort): The number of infant deaths among infants born in a given calendar year. The individual infant death records are linked to the birth records, so that characteristics of the infant and mother may be analyzed.

Birth-Death Linked Infant Mortality (Death Cohort, or Period File): The number of infant deaths during the year per 1,000 live births during the same year. The individual infant death records are linked to the birth records, so that characteristics of the infant and mother may be analyzed.
Infant Mortality (Death Data Only)
Infant Mortality Rate (age 364 days or less)

Data table and chart

Number of infants (age 364 days or less) who died in a given time period per 1,000 infants born over the same period.

Quartile Map

A "Quartile" map assigns areas to four groups. Each group includes the SAME NUMBER of areas. For instance, for local health districts, each group includes three areas. Group membership and map color are based on the rank order of area rates, from the lowest rate to the highest. The first quartile is colored white and consists of areas with the lowest rates. Areas with the darkest color have the highest rates. Percentile maps such as this assign 25% of the areas to the "highest" category, even when area rates are very close. In other words, just because an area is in the "highest" category doesn't necessarily mean that the rate is significantly high.
Data table and Quartile Map

High-Low-Same Map

A "High-Low-Same" map assigns areas to three groups. Group membership and map color are based on whether each area's rate is significantly different (higher or lower) from the state rate. An area's rate is considered significantly different if the overall state rate falls outside (above or below) the confidence interval for that area. Maps such as this one may lack color variation if the area rates are based on very few cases and have wide confidence intervals. In other words, just because an area's rate is statistically the "same" as the state rate doesn't necessarily mean that the rate is not meaningfully high or low.
