Dynamic systems modeling for quality improvement in reducing neonatal mortality: evidence from Kerman and Bam, Iran

This study is among the first in Iran to utilize a comprehensive systems dynamics approach to analyze factors affecting neonatal mortality. It presents a highly accurate dynamic model that integrates qualitative and quantitative data, offering a replicable methodology adaptable to other regions facing similar health challenges. The innovative application of dynamic systems modeling in neonatal health provides significant contributions to healthcare management and public health, supporting global efforts to reduce neonatal mortality.
