Abstract

This study examines the main causes and risk factors of infant mortality in the Sirdaryo region of Uzbekistan. Infant mortality serves as a key indicator of public health, reflecting socioeconomic, environmental, and healthcare conditions. Using regional health statistics, maternal and perinatal data, and literature review, the research identifies the leading causes of infant deaths, including perinatal complications, infectious diseases, congenital anomalies, and socioeconomic factors. The study also highlights maternal health, prenatal care, and rural living conditions as significant risk factors. The findings provide evidence-based recommendations to reduce infant mortality through improved healthcare services, maternal education, and access to clean water and sanitation.
