Postneonatal Mortality Rate
Rate of death occurring from 28 days to 364 days of age in a given year per 1,000 live births in the same year
Infant mortality is death within the first year of life. This is divided into two components: death before the 28th day of life is neonatal mortality; death between 28 days and one year is postneonatal mortality.

Postneonatal mortality is an important indicator of infant and maternal health status and medical care (pre and post delivery), as well as a measure of how certain behavioral factors affect infant health.
MICH-1.5
One-third of infant deaths occur in the postneonatal period. The postneonatal mortality rate among children of Black mothers is three to six times that of other racial/ethnic groups.
The leading causes of postneonatal mortality are sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and congenital anomalies (birth defects). These two causes account for about 40% of postneonatal deaths.
The postneonatal mortality rate among New Jersey residents is consistently below that of the U.S.
