Factors associated with child mortality in Pakistan and implications for the national health programs.
"This study attempts to establish the levels of infant and child mortality in Pakistan using an indirect estimation technique to analyze data from the 1984-85 Pakistan Contraceptive Prevalence Survey....[Results indicate] that children's survival chances have hardly improved in recent years.... Suggestions are offered on ways to improve the effectiveness of rural health programs."
