Percentage of live births >= 2.5 kg

Definition:

  • Percentage of live births >= 2.5 kg refers to the proportion of newborns, out of all live births, who weighed at least 2.5 kilograms (or 5.5 pounds) at birth. This statistic is often used in public health to monitor infant health. A higher percentage of newborns with a birth weight of 2.5 kg or more is generally considered positive as it indicates better prenatal care and overall health of mothers and babies.
