From: UNICEF Report: enormous progress in child survival but greater focus on newborns urgently needed
Progress in skilled birth attendance at delivery has accelerated since 2000 across all regions, but coverage is still inadequate. Percentage of births attended by skilled health personnel, by region, LDCs, and world, 1990, 2000, 2012.
Notes: *Data for Latin America and the Caribbean refer to institutional deliveries. Estimates are based on a subset of 114 countries with available trend data for 1990–2012 covering 75% of births worldwide. Regional estimates represent data from countries covering at least 50% of regional births. Source: UNICEF: Committing to child survival: A Promise Renewed progress report 2014. New York: UNICEF; 2014.
