Malaria
Acute lower respiratory tract infections
Hepatitis
Pre-maturity
Premature infant is one which is born:
Before 40 weeks
Before 38 weeks
Between 28-37 weeks
Between 28-42 weeks
Single most important factor determining survival chances
of newborn is:
Birth order
Multiple gestation
Intrauterine infection
Low birth weight
All of the following deaths are included in as causes of maternal death except:
Following abortion
During lactation 1st month
During lactation 8th month
During the last trimester due to APH
Maternal Mortality Rate is calculated by:
Maternal deaths/live birth
Maternal deaths/1000 live births
Maternal deaths/100000 live births
Maternal deaths/100000 population
All of the following statements are true about the childhood mortality rates in India except:
Almost half of infant mortality rate (IMR) occurs in neonatal period
Almost 3/4th of the under-five mortality occurs in the first year of life
About one in thirteen children die before they reach the age of five years
Neonatal mortality is higher among female children as compared to males.
Infant mortality does not include:
Early neonatal mortality
Perinatal mortality
Post neonatal mortality
Late neonatal mortality
Which of the following is the least likely cause of Neonatal mortality in India?
Severe infections
Congenital malformations
Prematurity
Birth asphyxia
In a certain population, there were 4050 births in the last one year. There were 50 still births. 50 infants died within 7 days whereas 150 died within the first 28 days. What is the neonatal mortality rate?
50
62.5
12.5
49.4
Child survival index is calculated by?
1000-IMR/10
IMR-1000/10
1000-U5MR/10

The uppermost line of the ‘road to health card’ is equivalent to:
80% for boys
50% for girls
50th percentile for boys
3rd percentile for girls
Deficit in weight for height in a 3-year-old child indicates:
Acute malnutrition
Chronic malnutrition
Concomitant acute and chronic malnutrition
Under weight
If the birth weight is 3 kg. by the end of one year of age it should become:
6 kg
9 kg
12 kg
15 kg
The best parameter for assessment of chronic malnutrition is
Weight for age
Weight for height
Height for age
Any of the above
. Mid-arm Circumference is constant during:
0-6 months
1-5 years
5-10 years
10 years
Road to health card or the growth chart was first designed by:
Edwin Chadwick
David Morley
C. Gopalan
C.E. Winslow
Growth chart used in India has curves:
Two
Three
Four
Five
All are true about growth chart except:
It is a tool for educating mothers
The position of dots is more important than direction
Between top 2 lines, it shows ‘Road-to-Health’ or ‘zone of normality'
Lowermost line corresponds to children below 3 percentile
In population of 1 lac, with 4000 live birth per annum and under S population is 15000 with infant death per annum is 1\28. So the less than 5 mortality rate is:
40%
100%
26.5%
69%
Denominator in, under 5 proportionate mortality rate is:
Mid year population
Mid year population in 5 years age
Number of live birth in same year
Total death in same year
