The primary causes of neonatal mortality are complications of prematurity, birth asphyxia, birth injury, neonatal tetanus, congenital anomalies, and diarrhea with low birth weight contributing to a large proportion of deaths. Most of these newborns die at home while being cared by mothers, relatives and traditional birth attendant.

Due to pre maturity neonatal tetanus, birth asphyxia, and infections which can be prevented by proper and timely care of new born. Therefore, all newborns get home based newborn care as per the perception and socio-cultural behavior of the society. However, it has been observed by various studies on the newborn care in the communities that the knowledge and the practices of simple care e.g. prevention of hypothermia, feeding of colostrum and exclusive breastfeeding, are lacking.
