Fatality Review of Deaths of Infants, Children and Youth with Disabilities and Special Health Care Needs
Approximately one-fifth of the cases reviewed by CDR teams and entered into the CDR-Case Reporting System are deaths of children with disabilities and/or special health care needs. Infants and children with disabilities/special health care needs have different risks for death than their peers without these conditions. To conduct effective reviews of such deaths, CDR and FIMR teams need knowledge of disability/special health care needs in order to determine what role, if any, the disability/special health care needs played in the death.

Data Driven Strategies for Drowning Prevention
This webinar will highlight three settings in which many drownings occur – in and around the home; swimming pools; and open bodies of water. Age, gender, and race vary considerably according to each of these settings. Prevention strategies for each of these settings will be discussed.

Using Population data to complement fatality review data: An overview of CDC WONDER and Perinatal Periods of Risk (PPOR)
Fatality review includes information often not available through routine quantitative methods. Population data, such as vital statistics, are frequently used to complement fatality review findings. This presentation will include a demonstration of the CDC WONDER, an integrated information and communication system for public health developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The webinar will also introduce participants to Perinatal Periods of Risk (PPOR) is a comprehensive approach to help communities use data to reduce infant mortality.
