Role of BMS and Infrastructure in Crude Death Rate and Infant MortalityRate

[摘要] The aim of the study is to investigate the relationship of infrastructure of health sector and basic medical staff with the IMR and CDR respectively. Another purpose of doing this study is to describe the historical trend of infrastructure in Health sector and Basic Medical Staff (BMS). CGR and Year on Year (YoY) % change of BMS and infrastructure shows that there is downward trend after the period 1995-96. The results of one way ANOVA shows that, each decade has different growth in infrastructure and basic medical staff. Similarly regression analysis shows that there is linear relationship among the IMR, CDR, basic medical infrastructure and BMS. The finding of the study indicates that basic infrastructure and basic medical staff is playing an important role in reducing the CDR and IMR of Pakistan. Infrastructure is playing significant role in the decreasing trend of CDR and IMR as compare to the BMS. This indicates that government of Pakistan needs to increase the budget for the infrasture of health sector.
