| dc.description.abstract | Background: Every year, 120,000 newborns die in Ethiopia. Neonatal deaths now account for a greater proportion of under-five deaths. An estimated 3.1 million neonates die each year globally and 99% of these deaths occur in low-income countries. Despite the extraordinary improvements in child survival over the past 25 years, there is still virtually no effective health care for newborns in many developing countries. The nurse becomes the infant’s primary supportive staff with the most contact with infants and their caregivers.
