2023 Infant Mortality Statistics for North Carolina
The State Center for Health Statistics has compiled detailed information about infant mortality. Please click on a topic of interest.
A confidence interval is a range above and below an observed rate within which we would expect the “true” rate to lie 95% percent of the time. Rates based on a small number of cases will typically have wider confidence intervals. As a general rule, if those intervals overlap the difference between groups is not statistically significant. For more information on confidence intervals, please see Statistical Primer 12: Problems with Rates Based on Small Numbers.
