Introduction
Health information system (HIS) has been implemented in Azraq camp since April 2014. The report for the second half of 2024 covers the period 29 June to 27 December 2024 (Week 27 – Week 52) with data from all health facilities in Azraq camp reporting on HIS on weekly basis. This includes IMC Hospital, comprehensive AMR health facility in Village 3, AMR Clinic in Village 5, and AMR clinic in Village 2 in addition to the reproductive health services provided by IFH in village 5 and the comprehensive health facility. The population figure used for calculating indicators is the median for the reporting period; 41,742.
Mortality
Twenty-seven mortalities were reported during the second half of 2024 from Azraq camp with a Crude Mortality Rate (CMR) of (0.11/1,000 population/month; 1.3/1,000 population/year). Among the 27 deaths, 13 (48%) were in children under 5, 6 of which were neonatal with a neonatal mortality rate (NNMR) of 14.9/1,000 livebirths. Cardiovascular diseases and neonatal deaths were the top causes of mortality with a proportional mortality of 22% each. Mortalities reported on HIS are obtained from Azraq Camp Central Death Registry which includes deaths that took place inside the camp and deaths at referral health facilities outside the camp. Nevertheless, the system does not capture death cases that occur out of the camp who have not followed the usual referral pathways.
