The infant mortality rate in France, under the minimum threshold of 22 weeks or 500 grams birthweight, is stable from 2024 to 2028 at 3.8 deaths per thousand live births. As of 2023, the rate was consistent with the forecasted value of 3.8, indicating no significant variation or growth trend over these years. With no year-on-year percentage changes, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is 0%. This steady trend suggests sustained healthcare practices and potentially no major interventions or shifts in healthcare policy affecting infant mortality rates in the near term.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements in neonatal care, policy changes regarding maternal and infant healthcare, and demographic shifts that could influence birth rates and healthcare delivery in France, thereby impacting infant mortality rates.
