Esta asociación solo es significativa en municipios de la costa oeste. La fuerza de la asociación disminuyen municipios del interior. Discusión: Centralizar las camas obstétricas y neonatales en ciudades principales de la región central deja desatendidos a los municipios con mayor mortalidad.

Accesibilidad geográfica al cuidado obstétrico y neonatal y su efecto en la mortalidad neonatal temprana en Colombia.The distribution of health resources influences early neonatal mortality, guaranteeing access to obstetric care is a public health problem. However, the geographical dimension of this influence has not been studied in Colombia. Objective: To describe the geographic accessibility to obstetric and neonatal beds and its association with early neonatal mortality in Colombia by municipalities. Method: An ecological study was carried out at the municipal level. Least squares regression and geographically weighted regression were used to explore statistical and spatial associations. Results: Municipalities with higher mortality rates tend to show less geographic accessibility to obstetric and neonatal beds, after controlling for municipal, economic and fertility characteristics. This association is only significant in municipalities on the west coast. The strength of the association diminish municipalities of the interior. Discussion: Centralizing obstetric and neonatal beds in the main cities of the central region leaves the municipalities with higher mortality unattended. The decentralization of obstetric and neonatal care resources is a mandatory matter to reduce geographic inequalities in mortality, increase neonatal survival and achieve a healthy start to life.

Geographic accessibility to obstetric and neonatal care and its effect on early neonatal mortality in Colombia.A distribuição dos recursos de saúde influencia a mortalidade neonatal precoce, garantindo o acesso à assistência obstétrica é um problema de saúde pública. No entanto, a dimensão geográfica dessa influência não foi estudada na Colômbia. Objetivo: Descrever a acessibilidade geográfica aos leitos obstétricos e neonatais e sua associação com a mortalidade neonatal precoce na Colômbia por municípios. Método: Foi realizado um estudo ecológico em nível municipal. A regressão de mínimos quadrados e a regressão geograficamente ponderada foram usadas para explorar associações estatísticas e espaciais. Resultados: Municípios com maiores taxas de mortalidade tendem a apresentar menor acessibilidade geográfica aos leitos obstétricos e neonatais, controlados pelas características municipais, econômicas e de fertilidade. Essa associação é significativa apenas em municípios da costa oeste. A força da associação diminui os municípios do interior. Discussão: A centralização dos leitos obstétricos e neonatais nas principais cidades da região central deixa os municípios com maior mortalidade sem atendimento. A descentralização dos recursos de assistência obstétrica e neonatal é uma questão obrigatória para reduzir as desigualdades geográficas na mortalidade, aumentar a sobrevida neonatal e alcançar um início de vida saudável.
