In 2023, the infant mortality rate in Panama decreased by 0.5 deaths per 1,000 live births (-4.5 percent) compared to 2022. Therefore, 2023 marks the lowest infant mortality rate during the observed period. The infant mortality rate is the number of newborns who do not survive past the first 12 months of life. This is generally expressed as a value per 1,000 live births, and also includes neonatal mortality (deaths within the first 28 days of life).
