Description/Abstract

Children's mortality is still a public health concern. The World Health Organization (WHO) has been attempting to lower the death rate among children under five years old which represented the most important burden of mortality in children. In certain countries these diseases have moved from high mortality rates secondary to under-5 mortality such as infections in neonates, respiratory, and gastrointestinal disorders, to other diseases that are more commonly seen in older children and for which there is an urgent need to identify in order to improve these outcomes. An assessment of clinical deterioration events, which, if left undetected, may result in mortality, is one method of identifying more common causes of mortality.
