High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In June 2011, the United Nations Population Fund released a report on The State of the World's Midwifery. It contained new data on the midwifery workforce and policies relating to newborn and maternal mortality for 58 countries. The 2010 maternal mortality rate per 100,000 births for Cambodia is 290. This is compared with 265.8 in 2008 and 409.1 in 1990. The under 5 mortality rate, per 1,000 births is 90 and the neonatal mortality as a percentage of under 5's mortality is 34. The aim of this report is to highlight ways in which the Millennium Development Goals can be achieved, particularly Goal 4 - reduce child mortality and Goal 5 - improve maternal death. In Cambodia the number of midwives per 1,000 live births is 6 and 1 in 110 shows us the lifetime risk of death for pregnant women.
