Adjusted for household wealth index and parental education.

Facilities were classified as private if care is paid for by patients/families, government if care is provided by the Bangladesh government, and charitable if care is provided by non-governmental organizations at no or very low cost to patients. For admissions in which infants were transferred between facilities, facility type was based on the first hospital to which the infant was admitted.
