摘要：Introduction: Mortality and even morbidity are among the indicators of the efficiency of a health system. Methodology: We conducted a cross-sectional study on mortality among children aged 0 - 59 in the pygmy community with the aim of reducing mortality in this age group. This study covered two years, i.e. 2014 and 2015. Results: The overall hospital mortality rate is 39.9%; 2014 saw many deaths (77.9%) compared to 2015 (22.1%); Newborns whose age is between 0 and 28 were more concerned by death donations 47.7%, followed by those aged between 1 and 11 months (30.2%) and finally those whose age is included between 12 and 59 months (22.1%). Conclusion: Reducing mortality among children aged 0 - 59 is a major asset for nation building.
