Date

A community has 60,000 inhabitants, 35,000 of which are female. Of the female population, 525 have been diagnosed with osteoporosis. What is the prevalence rate?

ln the same community, the number of new cases of osteoporosis reported in the past year was 76 and the female population {vas 36,000. What is the incidence rate in this community, correct to the nearest whole number?

State population statistics for the year include: Population of state Female popu lation 115-44') Maternal deaths Live births lnfant deaths (<1 year) \eonatal deaths (<28 weeks) Fetal deaths (>20 weeks) Postneonatal deaths

Calculate the fol lowing: a. Maternal mortality rate o. lnfant mortality rate c. Neonatal mortality rate d. Percent of all infant deaths that are neonatal deaths e. Perinatal mortality rate f. Postneonatal mortality rate g. Fetal death rate:

(1) Without fetal deaths in the denominator (2) lncluding fetal deaths in the denominator
