Asian neonatal mortality in Blackburn.
Neonatal mortality among Asian and non-Asian babies in Blackburn was determined for 1982-84. Though Asian mothers have more low birthweight babies, proportionately fewer babies require intensive care. Preterm delivery and asphyxia were not major factors in neonatal mortality among Asian babies, most deaths being due to lethal congenital malformations.
